Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy

Release Physical Therapy provides comprehensive care for both women and men with pelvic floor issues. We do a thorough evaluation of the pelvis, pelvic floor muscles and surrounding tissue and determine a plan of care to normalize any dysfunction in these areas. Similar to any other orthopedic injury, your physical therapist will assess the muscle strength, joint mobility, coordination and function to see how it contributes to your symptoms. Our specialists can treat symptoms of incontinence, pelvic pain or prolapse, diastasis rectus abdominus, pregnancy and postpartum rehabilitation, painful intercourse constipation, and more.

Prenatal Physical Therapy

Release Physical Therapy will treat patients for prenatal rehabilitation. You can expect during your prenatal physical therapy appointments a thorough evaluation to determine any pain or goals specific to you during your pregnancy. Your therapist can help address any hip, pelvis,  back or sciatica symptoms you may experience during pregnancy. Your therapist will then help to educate you on how to prepare your pelvic floor for birth, including perineal massage, hip and rib-cage mobility to open the hips to prepare for labor and delivery, pelvic floor relaxation exercises, pushing and breathing strategies, and help to answer questions you may have about what to expect postpartum.

Postpartum Physical Therapy

Release Physical Therapy provides comprehensive care for women at any stage postpartum. You can expect during your postpartum physical therapy appointments a thorough evaluation to determine any dysfunction from pregnancy or birth. You will discuss your goals with your provider and they will create an individualized pelvic floor and core plan to return you to your goals.
