Physical therapist giving patient pelvic floor treatment.

Pelvic Floor Therapy

Pelvic floor dysfunction occurs when the muscles, nerves, connective tissue, and skeletal structures in the pelvis are not functioning properly to keep us continent, aid in sexual performance, and assist in core stability.

Discomfort from the low back, abdomen, hips, and legs can contribute to pain. Infections, childbirth, and previous surgeries are a few factors that can result in pelvic floor dysfunction.

If you’re suffering with any of the following conditions, Pelvic Floor Therapy may be able to help:

  • Constipation/incontinence
  • Urinary or fecal leakage
  • Pelvic pain
  • Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI)
  • Painful intercourse (Dyspareunia)
  • Painful Bladder Syndrome (Interstitial Cystitis)
  • Genital pain (Vulvodynia)
  • Rectal pain
  • Testicular pain
  • Pain after prostate surgery (Prostatectomy)
  • Pain following hysterectomy or pelvic reconstruction surgery
  • Tailbone pain (Coccydynia)

Call 480-289-5502 for locations that offer pelvic floor therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • If we are asking you to do something that is hurting too much, let us know! Physical therapy should not be severely painful. It is not common to be so sore that patients are in pain or it affects their daily life. If this ever happens during or after an appointment, let us know and we will adapt your program.

  • We recommend budgeting 40-60 minutes for a typical therapy session. The only exception to this will be your first visit, which can take about 20 minutes longer due to the physical therapy evaluation your therapist will provide. We also recommend showing up about 10-15 minutes early to your first visit. This way, you can complete the paperwork before your visit time and streamline the process.

  • A physical therapy visit lasts about 40-60 minutes. The actual contents of the visit vary based on your diagnosis/need, but typically what happens is:

    1. You check in with the receptionist, make any appointments necessary, and we discuss your health insurance benefits with you.
    2. You go into the gym. You can change clothes if you need to, then begin therapy.
    3. You perform 6-8 various exercises and stretches. These can include therapeutic band exercises, light body weight exercises, or minimal weights. The stretches will promote strength, stability, improved range of motion, and pain relief.
    4. We can initiate other techniques to include manual work, taping, cupping, and dry needling as needed.
    5. The therapist makes recommendations based on your progress. These can include altering the frequency of visits, making additions/alterations to your home exercise plan, or things to do before your next visit.
  • During your initial evaluation, your therapist may ask you a number of questions to determine what the cause of your pain is. This can include questions about your sleep habits, activity level, and work environment. They will also ask for a medical history, and then typically ask direct questions about where and when you experience pain.

Hear from patients that reclaimed their lives.

After many sessions of grueling therapy, with Clint, I am now able to walk without pain. I can now run again with no pain. Due to the extensive therapy, I’m also able to straighten my knee. Now, because of Clint and his knowledge of therapy, I’m back to playing softball, at a high level again. Not only Clint, but the entire staff is knowledgeable and hands-on in working with all the clients.
