Today in Pelvic Floor PT – The Podcast is HERE!

On this show we are going to be discussing all things pelvic floor: from bowel and bladder, to pregnancy, to prolapse, painful sex, bedwetting, painful bladder syndrome, recovery from abdominal and pelvic surgeries, prostate cancer and the recovery, endometriosis and so much more. We will have guests on each episode to discuss the different topics and perspectives. We are taking some very sensitive topics and having discussions full of great information so these issues are less intimidating.

We provide education, manual therapy, exercises, and support to those who suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction. Come to one-on-one assessments and follow-up treatments with a Board-Certified Women’s Health Physical Therapist. We treat women, men, and children, ages 4 and up, in a clinic designed to cater to our clients’ needs.

“…there are more women and men coming in for treatment of problems they may have previously thought they’d simply have to deal with.”

“It makes me happy to know that more patients will be trying physical therapy for pelvic floor issues first, because there are a lot of things it can help.“

~Dr. Julia Salazar, PT, WCS

There’s Physical Therapy for My WHAT?

People don’t think twice when their doctor sends them for PT after a total knee or with shoulder pain. But when your doctor mentions you should see a PT for issues involving your nether region that’s when you throw up your hands in disbelief and walk out of the doctor’s office wondering what can a PT do for me?

What does Board Certified Women’s Health/Pelvic Floor mean?

I get asked all the time what the initials DPT and WCS behind my name stand for. Here’s the answer…

Pain with Intimacy

Our private times with our partners is not normally a topic we discuss freely with others, but what happens when things start to hurt? Who do we talk to? What can be done for it? Is it just “normal part of aging?” Pain with penetration is not “normal” no matter what your age.
