Men’s Conditions
We Specialize In Treating
-
Pelvic & Abdominal Pain
We help men 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 chronic prostatitis, pudendal neuralgia, interstitial cystitis, or many happen without a known association.
-
Sexual Pain & Dysfunction
We help men dealing with pain related to erection or ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and pain worsened by sexual activity. The pelvic floor muscles are important involved in erection and ejaculation, so pelvic floor dysfunction can often be a factor in many sexual challenges.
-
Bladder Dysfunction
We help men dealing with bladder urgency and frequency or bladder leakage. We also offer specialized rehabilitation for men after prostatectomies or other prostate cancer procedures.
-
Bowel Dysfunction
We help men overcome constipation and difficulty emptying stool, fecal urgency and bowel leakage, and other bowel conditions. The pelvic floor muscles are crucial to optimal defecation, so customized rehabilitation can often make a big difference in bowel health.
