I’d like to briefly discuss pelvic physical therapy and what to expect during your appointment.

What is pelvic physical therapy?

It’s a specialized therapy that takes a comprehensive approach, focusing on the muscles, ligaments, and tissues that support your pelvic organs. Through a combination of manual techniques, exercises, and education, pelvic physical therapy aims to improve muscle strength, flexibility, and coordination, thereby addressing issues such as bladder leakage, pelvic pain, and postpartum discomfort. This comprehensive approach is designed to reassure you that all aspects of your condition are being addressed, instilling confidence in the effectiveness of the therapy.

What to expect at your pelvic physical therapy appointment.

Your therapist will conduct a comprehensive assessment during your pelvic physical therapy appointment. This will include a detailed discussion of your medical history, symptoms, and any specific concerns you have. They may also perform a thorough physical examination to assess your pelvic floor muscles, posture, flexibility, and strength. Based on this comprehensive assessment, the therapist will create a personalized treatment plan to address your needs, ensuring that all aspects of your condition are understood and addressed.

Remember, you are an active participant in your treatment. Treatment methods may include manual therapy techniques, exercises to strengthen or relax the pelvic floor muscles, electrical stimulation, and education on proper body mechanics and self-care strategies. The therapist will work closely with you to ensure you understand the treatment plan and feel comfortable with the recommended techniques, empowering you to take control of your pelvic floor health.

Pelvic physical therapy is conducted privately and respectfully, and your therapist will prioritize your comfort and well-being throughout the appointment. This respectful and private environment is designed to make you feel secure and comfortable, ensuring you can focus on your treatment without unnecessary stress or discomfort. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to talk with your therapist about them.
