Coccydynia: We are your Tailbone Experts.

Coccydynia/Tailbone Pain is one of the most frustrating conditions to experience. Pain limits almost every aspect of your life and yet no one seems to know how to treat it. At Wellsprings Health we treat coccydynia both internally and externally, and you can rely on us to bring an expert approach to your care. Read on to learn how we address coccydynia in our practice.

Coccydynia, or tailbone pain, is a frustrating condition to experience.  We sit to work, eat, relax, commute, and most activities in between!  Coccydynia may also affect the ability to exercise, go to the bathroom, or engage in sexual activity.  When the tailbone hurts it can become almost impossible to complete these  normal daily activities, and it can be equally challenging to find help.

At Wellsprings we have the experience and expertise to evaluate and treat your tailbone pain.  After years of working with coccydynia patients, we have put together a program designed to address the specific needs of this patient population.

Treatment modalities that may be included in your program:

  • Manual mobilization of the coccyx, internal and/or external

  • Pelvic alignment and postural balancing techniques

  • Manual muscle releases and soft tissue mobilization techniques

  • Pelvic floor therapy

  • Myofasical release

  • Iontophoresis

  • MPS Therapy

  • Coccyx, sacrococcygeal, and/or sacroiliac taping

  • Therapeutic exercises and stretching

  • Ergonomic training 

  • Self treatment techniques


We also offer Yoga for Coccydynia one-on-one classes, both online and in person.  Local patients may participate as part of their program, but classes are also available to those clients who live too far to come for treatment, or who are looking for follow-up care.  

If you are out of town but interested in care, you may qualify for an intensive program. Please call the office or request more information below.
