Pelvic Floor Therapy​
​
Pelvic floor physical therapy is specialized, whole-body care that supports the muscles responsible for bladder, bowel, sexual health, and core stability. These muscles work in close coordination with your core and play a vital role in everyday movement. During pregnancy and the postpartum period, changes in the pelvic floor can contribute to pain, pressure, leaking, feelings of weakness or disconnection, and other common concerns.
​
Working with a pelvic floor physical therapist helps you prepare for pregnancy, birth, and recovery with intention and support. During pregnancy, care focuses on building strength, mobility, and body awareness while preparing your body for labor and delivery. This foundation is incredibly valuable postpartum, when your body is adjusting to lifting, carrying, feeding, and caring for your baby. Addressing concerns early and supporting your body through each phase can lead to a smoother recovery and a more confident return to daily activities and movement.
​
Even if you are not currently experiencing symptoms, pelvic floor physical therapy can be a powerful preventative tool. It offers education, guidance, and individualized support so you feel informed, connected to your body, and prepared for the physical demands of parenthood.
​
Common pregnancy and postpartum conditions we support include:
Pelvic girdle pain (hips, low back, SI joints, pubic symphysis), tailbone pain, pelvic pressure or heaviness, urinary leakage, urgency or frequency, bowel dysfunction or constipation, symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, pain with sex, diastasis recti and core weakness, postural and movement-related pain, discomfort related to breastfeeding or baby care, and guidance for labor preparation and a safe return to exercise.
​
In-home eval: $200 for 60 minutes:
May consist of body work, assessing ergonomics for baby-care, patient education, assignment of appropriate movement (mobility/gentle return to exercise/strength training), etc. Note: this eval likely will not consist of pelvic floor internal assessment or treatment if you are less than 6 weeks postpartum.
​
All in-home visits have an additional $50 travel fee. Telehealth consult required before in-home eval: $50 for 30 minutes (replaces travel fee for eval). This will involve a thorough history taking and discussion of plan for how to best use time of the in-home portion
