Pelvic Floor Therapy for Women

Postpartum Prolapse Isn’t Normal: Demand the Care & Diagnoses You Deserve

Did You Know?
90% of women will experience a pelvic floor disfunction in their lifetime. Only 26% will get a treatment for their disfunctions. Let's change those statistics, together!

Your postpartum journey doesn’t have to come with incontinence, prolapse, or a loss of sexual sensitivity—those are not your ‘new normal.’ We understand how frustrating it is to feel dismissed or told to just accept these changes. We believe you deserve more.

Your pelvic floor is a cornerstone of your health and vitality, and with the right care and support, you can restore strength, confidence, and control. You don’t have to settle—empower your body and reclaim your sense of self.

Credentials and Accolades

Conditions We Treat

Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA)

DRA may affect women during and after pregnancy. Sixty percent of women will develop diastasis recti in the third trimester of pregnancy. It is during this time that the fetus is growing most rapidly, and when the pelvic floor and rectus abdominus muscles are most prone to becoming overstretched and stressed.

Organ Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) can involve dropping of the uterus, bladder, and/or rectum. Can be due to: Childbirth, Aging, Chronic Coughing, Chronic Constipation, Weak Pelvic Floor, Heavy Lifting, & Surgery.

Chronic Pelvic Pain

Pelvic Pain Syndrome: Also known as chronic prostatitis, this condition involves pain in the pelvic region, including the genitals, rectum, and lower back. Pelvic floor therapy can help release tight muscles and reduce inflammation.
Muscle Tension and Trigger Points: Tight pelvic floor muscles can cause chronic pain. Pelvic floor therapy helps relax and lengthen these muscles to relieve pain.

Constipation

Did you know: More than 2.5 million people visit their doctors to seek treatment for constipation in the United States alone.Constipation is defined as infrequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stools. Chronic constipation lasts for several weeks or longer and is generally characterized by a lack of more than three bowel movements per week. Those higher at risk include women over the age of 65, those who are pregnant, or are sedentary.

Post-Urinary or Bowel Dysfunction

Fecal Incontinence or Constipation: Issues like constipation or fecal incontinence can arise from weak or overly tight pelvic floor muscles. Therapy helps restore balance and control for normal bowel function.

Painful Urination

Painful urination (dysuria) is discomfort or burning with urination, usually felt in the tube that carries urine out of your bladder (urethra) or the area surrounding your genitals (perineum).

Pudendal Neuralgia

This nerve disorder causes pain or discomfort in the pelvic area, which can be managed by targeting the pelvic floor muscles and alleviating pressure on the pudendal nerve.

Pelvic Floor Weakness

As women age, or after childbirth, their pelvic floor muscles naturally weaken, which can lead to issues like bladder leakage or decreased sexual performance. Pelvic floor therapy helps counteract the effects of aging. Pelvic floor therapy can significantly improve quality of life for women experiencing these conditions by focusing on strengthening, retraining, and relaxing the muscles in the pelvic area.

Testimonials From Our Female Clientele

I am so grateful for finding this amazing office of extremely nice, kind and professional people.

Raisa Grinshpun

I am so incredibly grateful for my time spent working with Christine over the past few months. I've been experiencing pelvic floor issues since the birth of my son over 5 years ago. Christine created a safe space to heal, grow my strength, and gain important knowledge about my postpartum body. I can't recommend this place enough!

Alicia Hedgecoth

I came to Pelvic Health PT after seeing a prior therapist for chronic pelvic floor issues a couple of years ago with limited results. All the therapists here are excellent, and they take a whole body, holistic approach to treatment. I saw significant improvement in my pelvic floor strength, and strength/flexibility in my thoracic spine and other areas of my body as well. The entire staff here, from the front desk team to the therapists, are all friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend them!
