Women's Health and Pelvic Floor PT is specialized rehabilitation for conditions which are unique to the female anatomy and often involve the pelvic muscles.
These muscles have many functions, including:
• Providing support to the pelvic organs
• Assisting in starting and stopping the flow of urine and stool
• Aiding in sexual function
Pelvic Floor PT is provided by a doctor of physical therapy who has specialized training on the pelvic floor muscles, as well as conditions which commonly affect women throughout their lifetime. Our team uses a holistic approach including assessment of posture, movement and behavioral patterns, breathing, pelvic floor muscle tone, past history, and more.
