FAQs

Pelvic floor physical therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy that addresses issues related to the pelvic floor muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues. The pelvic floor is essential for controlling bowel and bladder functions, supporting sexual health, stabilizing the pelvis, and facilitating nearly every movement of our body. Pelvic floor PT involves a comprehensive assessment to identify any dysfunction, followed by targeted exercises, manual therapy techniques, and education to improve strength, coordination, and function of this area.

We are an out-of-network clinic. We prioritize delivering unparalleled care tailored specifically to each individual's needs. By opting out of insurance, we are able to focus solely on providing the highest quality treatment without the restrictions and limitations often imposed by insurance companies. This allows us to spend more time with our patients, offering personalized attention and innovative therapies that may not be covered by traditional insurance plans. Upon request, we are able to provide you with a superbill after your visit if you would like to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.
