What is IVF? – IVF, or in vitro fertilization, is a process where an egg and sperm are combined outside the body in a lab. If fertilization is successful, the resulting embryo is transferred to the uterus to try to achieve pregnancy.
How can Pelvic Physical Therapy help someone going through IVF? – Pelvic PT can support folks going through IVF by improving pelvic blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and addressing pain or dysfunction that may affect fertility. It can also help manage stress, support hormone balance, and prepare the body for embryo transfer and pregnancy. 

We truly mean what we say; we are here to serve everyone who has a pelvis. We have experience treating birthing folks of all genders, sexual orientations, and couple styles. Our PTs are equipped with specific training and always treat from a trauma-informed lens in order to provide stellar care to every pregnant individual and their partners.

Whether you’re planning to have a C-section or your birthing journey results in one, a C-section is a MAJOR abdominal surgery and should be treated as such. Being prepared, knowing how to advocate for yourself, and navigating the unexpected are all things that we can help with.
