For Women

We Care for Women At Every Stage of Life

Our Doctors of Physical Therapy have advanced training in working with women throughout their lifespan. From individuals in their teens through menopause, we understand what your body is going through and will build a plan specific to you. We also will partner with you and help you with your pelvic health needs–pre-pregnancy, during pregnancy, postpartum and beyond!

Women’s Conditions
We Specialize In Treating

  • Pelvic & Abdominal Pain

    We help women dealing with pelvic pain, including pain in the abdomen, low back, SI joints, pubic bone, tailbone and genitals. Pelvic pain can be linked to other diagnoses like endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, or vulvodynia, or may happen without a known association.

  • Sexual Pain & Dysfunction

    We help women experiencing challenges related to their sexual health. Nearly 20% of women experience painful sex (dyspareuni). We also help women overcome problems like vaginismus, vulvodynia/vestibulodynia, persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD) and challenges related to arousal and orgasm.

  • Bladder Dysfunction

    We love helping the 30-50% of women who experience bladder leakage at some point in their lives. The pelvic floor muscles can often be involved in this as well as other challenges we treat like voiding dysfunction, bladder urgency and frequency, and difficulty emptying the bladder.

  • Bowel Dysfunction

    We help women experiencing bowel problems like constipation, difficulty emptying stool, bowel urgency or bowel leakage. We also help with postpartum bowel challenges and bowel changes related to hormonal changes during menopause.

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

    We help women experiencing pelvic organ prolapse (ie cystocele, rectocele, uterine or vaginal vault prolapse) improve their symptoms and optimize their pelvic floor and abdominal muscle function. We also help women who are undergoing surgery for prolapse, both prior to and after their procedures.

  • Prenatal Care & Birth Preparation

    We treat pregnant individuals experiencing pelvic girdle pain, low back and SI pain, pubic joint pain, and other common difficulties. While these problems happen frequently, they are often very easily treatable. We also help people build healthy exercise patterns during pregnancy, optimize their pelvic floor function, and learn strategies to prepare for birth.

  • Postpartum Recovery

    We help people heal and recover after birth– whether birth is vaginal or Cesarean, and whether it was 4 weeks ago, 4 months ago, or 24 years ago. Challenges like painful scars, bladder or bowel difficulties, and diastasis rectus abdominis can occur after birth. A custom treatment program can optimize abdominal and pelvic health and prevent problems in the future.

  • Menstrual Pain (Dysmennorrhea)

    Painful menstrual cramps are a leading causes of missed school for teens. We strive to encourage a multidisciplinary approach and facilitate medical care and referrals when indicated. Physical therapy interventions have been shown in research to have a positive effect on menstrual cramps. We aim to help our patients build a robust tool kit with specific exercises and modalities to reduce their pain during their periods and empower them to feel their best.

“Can’t say enough good things about southern Pelvic Health! I saw three providers but mainly Jessica who came up with a plan and we crushed the goals that we came up with together.”
