Pelvic Conditions we Treat
Bowel Dysfunction
Our pelvic floor trained physical therapist will teach you techniques to decrease urinary/fecal urge and frequency, She will also work on retraining your pelvic floor muscles to work correctly and educate you on bladder irritants and the effects of your dietary/fluid intake. We also provide additional exercises that assist with pelvic floor function, behavioral management techniques and patient education. For more information on this type of treatment, please visit our bowel dysfunction page.
Bladder Dysfunction
Incontinence is not a normal consequence of aging! You do not need to continue to live with the embarrassment or fear of leaking anymore. Many people will start to withdraw from activities with their children, social events, and exercise because of leakage. Physical Therapy can help give you control over your bladder again, save money and embarrassment by allowing less use of pads and undergarments, reduce use of medications for incontinence, and possibly prevent the need for surgery. For more information on this type of treatment, please visit our bladder dysfunction page.
Pelvic & Sexual Pain
Physical therapists trained specifically in the area of pelvic health can identify the possible generators of pelvic pain and develop a treatment plan specific to the patient suffering from pelvic pain. There are a few different methods of treatment that may be helpful to your condition. We can help develop a plan designed specifically for your needs that will help treat these symptoms.
