Pelvic Floor Rehab

We are pleased to announce we are now offering Pelvic Floor Rehab or Women’s Health services here. Our women’s health program includes treatment of a range of problems unique to women of all ages. Prenatal and postpartum issues are addressed with exercise and modification of activities. Incontinence (leaking of urine, bowel, or gas) and pelvic pain can be treated with a variety of methods to help clients learn to exercise the pelvic floor muscles properly to resolve their symptoms. Physical therapy is an important part of treatment for posture problems and osteoporosis which are common in older women.
