Pelvic Health
Pelvic health is important for both men and women. The pelvic region contains several vital organs, including the bladder, reproductive organs, and rectum. These structures play a key role in normal urinary and bowel function, as well as sexual health. Pelvic health therapy helps support a healthy pelvic region and address life changes that affect the pelvic floor.
Our pelvic health therapists take a comprehensive, individualized approach to pelvic health care. We provide support before, during, and after pregnancy, offer strategies to address pain and dysfunction, and focus on improving movement and function to help patients achieve lasting health and confidence.

What is the Pelvic Floor?
At the base of the pelvis is a group of muscles known as the pelvic floor. These muscles form a supportive "basket" across the bottom of the pelvis and work together with the diaphragm, abdominal muscles, and back muscles to help maintain posture, manage pressure within the abdomen, and support the pelvic organs.
Good pelvic health therapy helps address conditions such as low back pain, hip pain, and groin pain. It plays an important role during pregnancy, supports recovery after childbirth, and contributes to overall health and well-being throughout life.
Unfortunately, pelvic health concerns are often overlooked or left untreated. When this happens, individuals may experience challenges such as urinary or bowel incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, sexual dysfunction, pain with intercourse, and chronic pelvic pain.
