First of all, congratulations on taking this on!
Addressing pelvic health issues can feel overwhelming and sometimes uncomfortable to talk about. Thank you for visiting here – I hope to provide some solid guidance for next steps.
to take a quiz to see if pelvic physical therapy is right for you.
Below are just some of the factors we can address together…
Let’s get going!
'You look fine' - but you don’t feel fine. Pelvic pain is a little different in that way. It’s hard for others to get how disruptive pelvic pain can be and it can be even harder to talk about it. We can address these awkward, uncomfortable issues openly and without judgement. We can get you back to not just looking good, but feeling good too.
While sometimes necessary, surgery and/or radiation can create issues of their own. There are ways of reducing limitations due to scarring, deconditioning, pain and bowel/bladder dysfunction that can help you return to the life you love.
Prolapse can be a big surprise and not really a pleasant one. Many of us don’t even know what prolapse is before we feel it for ourselves. I get it - I have prolapse too. And yes, we CAN move and lift and laugh and live fully with prolapse! There is very little openly discussed about it (what a way to shut down a party conversation!), but there is a ton of contradictory advice online. The truth is, no two prolapses are alike and how you return to activity should be specific to you. Let’s figure out the best way for YOUR body to be active again!
Whether a slow, steady progression or sudden-onset through surgery, menopause is a major shift in our bodies. Even though menopause is strictly defined as no period for 12 months, perimenopause (and its effects) can last for several years (just like puberty). It’s not all gloom-and-doom though - there are methods of making this process smoother and yes, even enjoyable. Let me help you navigate this “reverse puberty” with confidence!
You are an active and vibrant human, or you used to be and want to be again. You want to have the option to do all of the activities you love without the worry of pain, leaking or ‘making things worse’. Get the direction you need for moving with confidence into the exercise that feels right to you!
It can be difficult for the ladies to find the right pelvic care, but it's even harder for the guys, especially with so much labeled as "women's health" and colored pink. Anyone with a pelvis - male, female or anywhere in-between - can benefit from pelvic PT. This is a judgement-free zone where we can speak openly and with care about the issues that are so difficult to address anywhere else. Erectile issues, premature ejaculation, incontinence, pain - all can be successfully addressed with PT.
