Mercier therapy is a soft tissue visceral manipulative therapy technique used to help restore the health and general well-being within the female pelvis and abdominal viscera.
This gentle and non-invasive technique was created to help you to reconnect to your own wellness and to allow your pelvis and abdomen, a highly emotional space, to re-open to healing and balance.
It is done over a period of 6 weeks with 6 individual sessions at 60 minutes per session. This visceral manipulative technique is done abdominally and requires NO vaginal work.

Prepare or recover from surgery
Depending on the upcoming procedure, Mercier Therapy, can be used to help prepare the pelvic organs and surrounding structures for a smoother surgery.
I would recommend 6 treatments prior and 6 treatments post surgery.
Must be 4-6 weeks post-surgical and have clearance from your physician to start the therapy.
Some of the procedures it may help with are:
Laparoscopy
Hysteroscopy
Hysterectomy
Laparotomy
Dilation & Curettage
How many sessions do I need?
6 initial sessions is a good place to start. Depending on how you feel after your first 6 sessions, we may continue to do one session on a monthly or bi-monthly basis.
What if I'm looking to get pregnant or having fertility challenges?
In this case the Mercier Therapy Shared Journey Fertility Program is the most appropriate protocol to choose.
I do not take insurance in my practice. Full payment is expected at the time of your visit. I do accept Flex Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA) which makes things easier for you is you have either of these options.
