Mercier Therapy, developed by Dr. Jennifer Mercier, is a safe, non-vaginal, deep visceral manipulative technique for women facing fertile challenges, experiencing pelvic pain, hormone imbalances, endometriosis, sexual trauma, bladder incontinence, traumatic birthing experiences, and recovery from gynecologic surgery. Adhesions may develop through a woman’s lifetime as a result of abdominal, pelvic, hip, or back surgery, endometriosis, use of an IUD, a fall, infection, or disease in the reproductive or urinary tract, or other pelvic inflammation or trauma. Adhesions act like glue — disrupting the function of affected organs.

• The end goal of Mercier Therapy pelvic work is to decrease adhesions in and around organs, ligaments, muscles, joints, and support structures of the pelvis, abdomen, hips, and low back. Many women can attest to the relief they’ve received from this wonderful modality.
