Why is Chuna therapy needed for men's conditions?

It corrects pelvic alignment that affects prostate and reproductive function.

Is Chuna effective for chronic pelvic pain?

Yes, especially excellent for non-bacterial chronic prostatitis/pelvic pain syndrome.

Is Chuna therapy covered by health insurance?

Yes, since 2019 it has been covered up to 20 sessions per year.

I have had pelvic pain for a long time — can Chuna approach it?

It is meaningful where pelvic floor tension is the background. In many cases the tests do not find a clear cause.

Is lower back pain related to urinary symptoms?

There are cases where they are related, because nerves emerging from the lumbar spine and sacrum lead to the pelvic organs.

Will I not be uncomfortable on the day after Chuna?

There may be soreness on the day. It usually settles within a day or two.

Chuna Therapy

When lumbar and pelvic alignment is off, blood flow and nerve signalling to the prostate and bladder are impeded. Correcting this with Chuna therapy helps improve urinary symptoms.
