PHYSIOTHERAPY AS A PART OF FERTILITY DISORDERS TREATMENT
 ROHLÍČKOVÁ, Eva
Infertility is defined as inability of a couple to conceive a child within one year of having unprotected sex at least two times a week. In 1970s the World Health Organization classified the condition as a disease. The data indicate that approximately 20-25% of couples in the Czech Republic are involuntarily childless. There are many methods used to address this condition. One of them is a physiotherapeutic approach. The purpose of this thesis was to find new (modern) views of the issue or potentially also some of its causes, and to point to the potential use of modern physiotherapeutic approaches to infertility treatment. To achieve the objective I have focused in the theoretical section on various causes of fertility disorders and their diagnostics. Further, I have tried to map some methods used in infertility treatment. I have strongly emphasized the physiotherapeutic approach, particularly methods developed by Ludmila Mojžíšová. In the practical section I have used a qualitative research method {--} the case study. The research was conducted in the Rehabilitation and Regeneration Center in Borovany near České Budějovice. Women selected for the survey were diagnosed with infertility and palpation sensitivity of pelvic bottom muscles. Three women treated with a rehabilitation method for some types of functional female infertility. The objective of the research was to map changes in the condition of muscular dysbalances in their pelvis bottom areas. In the surveyed patients improvements were found in terms of posture, breathing stereotype and pelvic bottom function. During the treatment all the three women reported gradual improvement of subjective feelings. One of the women got pregnant during the treatment. The main contribution of this thesis is the mapping of the infertility phenomenon. From the viewpoint of physiotherapy this work may be used in clinical practice by physiotherapists involved in this area.
