🚧 Barriers to Pelvic Floor Therapy: Why So Many Go Without Help

Pelvic floor dysfunction affects millions, but far too many never receive treatment.
Why?

Here are some of the most common barriers patients face:

🔹 Lack of awareness – Many patients (and even providers) don’t know pelvic floor therapy exists—or that it's effective.
🔹 Stigma & embarrassment – Symptoms like leaking, painful s*x, or bowel dysfunction can be hard to talk about.
🔹 Limited access – Rural areas and smaller towns often lack providers trained in pelvic health.
🔹 Cost & insurance issues – Coverage can be inconsistent, and high copays or out-of-network restrictions make ongoing care difficult.
🔹 Time & transportation – Weekly clinic visits aren’t realistic for everyone, especially new moms or those with mobility challenges.
🔹 Misdiagnosis or dismissal – Symptoms are often minimized, normalized, or misattributed to unrelated conditions.

💡 The result? People suffer in silence—thinking their symptoms are “normal” or untreatable.

But pelvic floor therapy is real, evidence-based care. And when patients can access it, outcomes improve.

👉 If you’re struggling with symptoms like pelvic pain, leaking, or heaviness, talk to your doctor. You don’t have to live with it.

Managing Blatter Irritants!

Reducing urge symptoms and managing bladder irritants can help improve bladder health and reduce the likelihood of urinary incontinence!

Here are some tips to help manage urge symptoms:
Avoid bladder irritants: Certain foods and drinks can irritate the bladder and contribute to urge symptoms.

Practice bladder training: Bladder training involves gradually increasing the time between bathroom visits to help your bladder become more accustomed to holding urine.

Practice pelvic floor exercises: Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles can help improve bladder control and reduce urge symptoms.

Stay hydrated: While it's important to manage fluid intake to reduce the number of bathroom visits, it's equally important to stay hydrated.

Did you know drinking an adequate amount of water is essential for maintaining good pelvic floor health?

One way to keep your pelvic floor strong is to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Try to aim to drink at least eight glasses of water a day. This will help keep your body hydrated and functioning properly, which will in turn help support the pelvic floor muscles!
If you're not used to drinking this much water, start by adding an extra glass or two to your daily routine and gradually increase your intake over time.

If you're experiencing any issues with your pelvic floor, such as incontinence or pain during s*x, don't worry! Pelvic floor therapy can help you achieve your goals of having a fit, strong, and functional pelvic floor.
