Ms. B-K

"I am a 71-year-old woman. After a lot of stress in my life, I developed a bladder infection. After 6 cures and a fungal infection, I was referred to the hospital. First to the gynecologist; I did not have a prolapse of the uterus. This was followed by a consultation with the urologist. He diagnosed cramping of the pelvic floor muscles. He recommended some medication and a visit to the physical therapist. After 17 treatments, the physical therapist sent me to a women's clinic. After 2 consultations, I was told that I needed to be a little firmer. I could ride a bike because "nothing could break. And that while I was in so much pain that I could barely sleep and couldn't sit. I was at my wit's end after so many hospital visits. I started searching on the Internet. There I found a clinic in Enkhuizen called 'F-act Pelvic Pain Clinic'. There is a physiotherapist there, her name is Fetske Hogen Esch and she helped me tremendously. I had a 3-hour examination there and was finally able to tell my story. The pain was reduced by her treatment method and I was given exercises and a Tens device to use at home. I feel like a different person again and undertake my activities again. With many thanks to Fetske and her team." November 2015
