What is Primary Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy?
Primary pelvic PT treats bladder, bowel, sexual, and reproductive symptoms that have a physical component regardless of whether you've been pregnant. The pelvic floor doesn't work in isolation. It functions in coordination with your core, hips, spine, breathing patterns, and nervous system, and Dr. Curls for the Girls assesses all of it.
Pelvic floor dysfunction can show up as too little strength, too much tension, poor coordination, or a combination of all three.
Who is primary pelvic floor physical therapy for?
Primary pelvic PT is for anyone experiencing pelvic symptoms at any life stage.
Chronic pelvic conditions
Endometriosis, interstitial cystitis (IC), pelvic congestion syndrome, chronic pelvic pain, and other conditions with a physical component that responds well to integrative care.
Pain with sex
Vaginismus, dyspareunia, or general discomfort or dysfunction with intimacy. You deserve pain-free and pleasurable intimacy.
Pre- or Post-surgical care
Preparing for or recovering from pelvic or abdominal surgery. What happens before and after surgery matters for how your body functions long term.
Pre- or post-surgical
Preparing for or recovering from pelvic or abdominal surgery, including hysterectomy or prolapse repair.
Bladder & bowel concerns
Leaking, urgency, incomplete emptying, pain with urination, constipation, or difficulty coordinating bowel function.
Menopause
Menopause changes how your pelvic floor functions, how your bladder behaves, and how your tissues respond. Maintain bone and joint health, support bladder function, address changes to sexual health, and reduce the physical symptoms.
