What Is Pelvic Floor PT?
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy is a minimally invasive treatment option for individuals seeking to improve bowel and bladder control and function, eliminate pelvic floor pain, and restore normal sexual function.
Many factors can contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction, including child birth, age, surgery and even stress leading to weakness or tension in the pelvic floor muscles. If not treated, symptoms may last for years or even become exacerbated with age.
Pelvic Floor PT works to restore normal muscle control and function to eliminate bothersome or painful symptoms.
What Does Pelvic Floor Treatment Look Like?
At Prosper Physical Therapy, Pelvic Health PT is a full 45 minutes to an hour of individualized treatment with an expert Pelvic floor Therapist who has taken all required courses to be able to treat even the most complex conditions. We oftentimes schedule patients who are seeking help after already completing a pelvic floor program at a different facility because they did not reach the goals they were hoping to achieve.
Your first visit will include a clinical assessment, individualized exercises and a customized treatment plan. We believe one on one continuity of care is essential to patient success. Most pelvic health conditions will improve in 6-8 visits over a 2-3 month time span.
