Pelvic health PT is for YOU
The coordination of your diaphragm, core and pelvic floor is foundational to how you move, lift, run, carry, birth, heal, and age well. And it’s why pelvic health physical therapy isn’t “just for postpartum” or “only if something is wrong.”
*****Pelvic health PT is for *every* woman, during multiple seasons of life.*****
🩵 Before or at First Me**es
Early education matters. Learning what’s normal, what’s not, how the pelvic floor works, and how breathing and posture influence pain, cramps, bladder habits, and bowel health sets young women up with body literacy, not fear or silence.
🩵During Pregnancy
Pregnancy changes pressure, posture, breathing mechanics, and load. Pelvic health PT helps:
• prepare the pelvic floor for birth
• manage back, hip, and pelvic pain
• improve breathing and pressure management
• reduce fear by understanding what’s happening in your body
🩵 Postpartum
Birth is a major physical event. Even when it’s “uncomplicated.”
Pelvic PT supports:
• healing of muscles, nerves, and connective tissue
• scar mobility and sensation
• bladder and bowel function
• safe return to movement, lifting, and exercise
🩵 During sports, strength training, and weight lifting
Leaking, pressure, pain, or fear during workouts isn’t a badge of honor. It’s a signal.
Strong isn’t just how much you lift, it’s how well your system works together.
🩵During Perimenopause & Menopause
Hormonal changes affect tissue quality, recovery, and coordination. Symptoms may show up as:
• bladder changes
• pelvic heaviness
• pain with intimacy
• core instability or back pain
Pelvic health PT helps adapt your movement, breathing, and strength training so you can continue living fully, not quietly shrinking your life.
At every stage, it comes back to this: your pelvic floor does not work alone, and pelvic health PT exists for YOU - to educate, to support, to prevent, and to restore.
Not just when you’re struggling.
But so you can live, move, and thrive - long term.
Education is care. Prevention is powerful. And your body is worth understanding.
