Specialized Pelvic Floor Treatment
- Ultrasound Biofeedback: ULS connects with iPad that the patient can hold and actually see the muscles they are retraining, great for postpartum, incontinence, post-prostatectomy, or core weakness.
- Pelvic Sensor Biofeedback: this gives the patient very specific electromagnetic assessment of how to relax pelvic muscles, which then allows us to retrain how much they can contract.
- Hypopressives: This is a unique way to use the diaphragm to strengthen and simultaneously stretch/release the pelvis, rooted in yoga theory, backed up by solid evidence, and endorsed by pelvic health experts.
- Dry Needling – very effective for pain in pelvic region.
Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction
- Frequently, symptoms such as sciatica, low back pain, pelvic pain, and hip/knee/ankle pain are misdiagnosed as strains, sprains, or dysfunctions of the lumbar spine, hip, or lower extremities. However, Sacroiliac Joint (SIJ) Dysfunction can often be the root of these symptoms. Even pain and dysfunction far from the SIJ can be caused by this imbalance. You can learn more about SIJD here

Visit our serene clinic environment to begin the process of healing. Read more about our Women’s Health services here.
Dry Needling
- This successful medical treatment uses acupuncture needles without the use of medication to eliminate the toxic impact of muscular trigger points. Advancing research has illustrated the involvement of trigger points in many of the inflammatory soft tissue disorders that affect adults like tendonitis, fibromyalgia, and mechanical low back pain. Dr. Ogren’s ongoing specialization in this technique is performed through the world renown Dry Needling Institute. Read more about our Dry Needling services here.
Transgender Health
- Our staff is trained in the health care needs of patients who identify as transgender. Our front desk is trained on how to help wit the insurance forms to protect the patients transitioned identity, and our staff is trained in how to manage physical changes associated with gender affirming hormone treatments, even as far as gender affirming surgery pre and post-op care. All 3 of our clinics are designated by LGBTQ+ Allies of Lake County as a Safe Space for the Transgender Community.
Low Back Pain
- One of the most common cases we see at Synergy is patients trying to find a solution for their lower back pain. While lower back pain is common in many individuals, it is NOT a normal result of aging. Here at Synergy, we believe nobody should have to live life in discomfort, or especially in pain. Our goal is always to help the patient live a full, healthy life with as few limitations as possible and pain free.
