What is it?
Pelvic floor physical therapy is essential to women’s health by helping women with a variety of issues that can arise overtime or after an event like birth or trauma.
Examples:
Diastasis recti
Pelvic girdle pain
Sexual dysfunction
Symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD)
Pelvic organ prolapse
Bowel & bladder dysfunction (incontinence, smearing)
Scar tissue
Lower abdominal weakness
Tailbone pain
Hysterectomy
Endometriosis and PCOS pain
Back & hip pain
Interstitial Cystitis (IC)
And more.
Unfortunately, some of these issues are often considered "normal" and ignored. However, pelvic floor physical therapy provides a safe and effective treatment method through targeted exercises and specialized treatment.
Treatment
Through guided and personalized exercises, education, and manual therapy, trained physical therapists can help improve pelvic floor function while attending to the whole body while functioning in all 3 planes of motion. Pelvic floor physical therapy also helps women who have never experienced pregnancy but experience pelvic health difficulties.
MamaBPT can help you by improving:
Whole body awareness
Scar tissue elasticity
Strength of body, core, and pelvic floor in preparation for labor and delivery
Postpartum recovery
Diastasis recti
Bowel & bladder habits
Breath awareness
And more.
Pelvic floor physical therapy not only addresses the physical needs but also lifestyle habits. With every diagnosis, it starts with the basics of learning to breathe correctly and controlling pressure while performing daily tasks.
Benefits
By strengthening and maintaining a healthy pelvic floor, women can prevent or manage issues that may arise as they age and promote better core stability. This will help to reduce the risk of back pain and enhance overall body function.

"I went to see Joy with my second pregnancy after I began to experience some round ligament pain, SPD pain.m, and sciatic nerve pain lip I’m a nurse so the discomfort was really interfering with my ability to get work done (both at work AND at home chasing around my toddler ). After ONE visit with Joy, I learned ways to strengthen my core and by the following week , my pain had gone down by about 90%. Prenatal, postpartum, moms!!! Go see her 💯"

FAQs
Do you provide free consultations?
Yes, upon request, we can provide 15 minute complimentary phone consultations.
What does a pelvic floor evaluation look like?
We will have a conversation about the concerns of the patient, ask about their history of childbirth, pregnancies, trauma, etc. After receiving consent, we will perform functional and muscle testing to determine the best treatment. If an internal vaginal exam is indicated, the therapist will assess muscle strength, length, and endurance of the pelvic floor muscles as well as any scar tissue and muscle tension. Typically treatment can begin immediately after the assessment.
Do you also treat orthopedic conditions?
Yes, this includes shoulder, neck, back, hip, knee, foot pain, TMJ pain (jaw), vestibular, etc.
Do you accept insurance?
No, we do not accept insurance. Instead, a superbill will be processed and the patient can submit it to their insurance company. This will be a document that includes diagnosis and procedure codes for the treatment that can potentially be reimbursed by the insurance company.

No, a credit card is required at the time of scheduling in the case there is a cancellation or no-show. The card will be charged after the scheduled visit.
