We specialize in women's health.
Our program is designed to meet the specific needs of women in a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Millions of women suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction which can lead to problems such as urinary and/or bowel incontinence and pelvic pain. The good news is physical therapy may help! Treatment can often address the causes of these issues and improve your overall quality of life.
New Mom? Our goal is to help you return to your strongest, best self and regain muscle strength in the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles. It can take a few years after having a baby to completely heal, so we’ll perform a thorough evaluation to assess the pelvic floor, core and surrounding muscles – even if you’re not currently experiencing aches and pains. We know being a mom is hard. That's why we always allow our mamas to bring their babies to physical therapy appointments.
