The one constant in a woman’s life is change. From the onset of menstruation to menopause, women endure many physical and emotional changes. Some of the physical changes that women experience result in pain, stress and even embarrassment.
If you’re experiencing any of the conditions or symptoms below, talk to your doctor, who can prescribe physical therapy for you at our Women’s Center. After you are referred for therapy, we will conduct diagnostic tests through biofeedback to assess strength, posture, and integrity of the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles. Based on your evaluation, we will develop a personalized program for you with appropriate goals and a projected time frame for successfully achieving them.
