If you’ve been told to “just do more Kegels” for leaking… you’re not alone.
Pelvic floor health is about much more than squeezing. Your breathing, core strength, movement patterns, bladder habits, and pressure management all play a role.
At Better Health PT we address the whole system, so noticeable improvement can happen.
Still unsure of where to begin? Call 240-247-0990 to set up a FREE phone consultation with one of our pelvic floor specialists.

Today we are highlighting an often overlooked area of the body, our feet! Feet that are weak, stiff, or unstable can contribute to a ton of other health issues, like balance problems or pelvic floor dysfunction! At Better Health Physical Therapy, we look at the whole body, including the feet, to help you move and feel better.

Before setting goals for 2026, take a breath and reflect on how your body feels today.
How do you want to move this year?
With less pain? More confidence? More ease?
Whether it’s supporting a healthy pregnancy, lifting your kids comfortably, or keeping up with your grandkids—movement matters.
Not “new year, new you.”
Just a thoughtful step toward moving better.

Do you notice a bulge or “doming” in your abs when you sit up or lift? 👀

That’s called diastasis recti (DR) — a separation of the abdominal muscles that can happen after pregnancy or from years of core strain. It’s a sign your deep abs aren’t working together as they should.

Join us for a 90-minute PT + Pilates workshop to learn how to safely reconnect your core, reduce doming, and move with strength and stability again. 💪

✨ For men & women
✨ Hands-on guidance
✨ Injury-prevention focused
