What is Pelvic Health physical therapy?

Pelvic health physical therapy is a specialized area of physical therapy that focuses on the unique needs of women throughout their lives. Effective and individualized management is provided for women with various pelvic dysfunctions. Young and older female athletes, before, during, and after pregnancy, menopausal, and elderly women can all benefit from pelvic health physical therapy treatment.

What should I expect with Pelvic Health physical therapy?

 As a new client, you will receive a thorough evaluation and one-on-one discussion with your physical therapist. The evaluation will include a non-invasive medical screening and full examination of posture, movement mechanics, strength, joint mobility, dynamic stabilization, and breathing strategies. Your examination will not include an internal assessment of the pelvic floor. A plan of care will then be created based on each individual needs, and treatments are specific to each individual. Each visit will be approximately 60 minutes.
