Professional Evaluation

for Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation

Pevlic Floor Muscle Treatment involves an evaluation of your muscle strength and bladder/bowel habits. Your treatment program will be based on the evaluation findings. Through your program, you will learn proper habits and techniques to control urgency and/or leakage and gain an understanding of normal bladder and bowel functions.

To determine what your needs are for an exercise program or more extensive treatment we will use pelvic floor fitness training in the gym and with specialized equipment to enhance and train pelvic floor muscles. We use a variety of equipment including fitness balls, bands, biofeedback techniques, pelvic floor electrical stimulation and vaginal weights.
Generally, it takes between 6-10 weekly visits over to see changes.
