This new physical therapy program at the Wellness Center provides evaluation and treatment in the areas of women’s bladder health, specifically the pelvic floor.  This would include the following diagnoses:

 

• Pelvic Floor muscle weakness
• Stress,  Urge and Mixed urinary incontinence
• Coccydinia
• Pelvic pain including dyspareunia, vestibulitis, and vulvodynia
• Urogenital Prolapse

 A thorough evaluation would include the assessment of spinal and pelvic mobility, muscle strength and functional status as well as an internal vaginal and/or rectal examination specific to the individual. We pride ourselves in looking at the whole patient.  Typical physical therapy treatment might include the following:

 

• Manual therapy techniques such as massage, myofascial release and joint mobilization
• Pelvic floor strengthening exercises
• Ultrasound, Biofeedback and/or electrical stimulation
• Patient education/Home program
