Surgical

Having a surgery is a big decision, and we want our patients to feel supported every step of the way. Pelvic floor therapy treatment can help ensure proper muscle function prior to surgical procedures, as well as improve post-operative outcomes and reduce risk factors that could lead to continued symptoms after surgery. Whether it’s a tummy tuck or a hysterectomy, we're here to provide you with top of the line pelvic therapy treatment in a boutique clinic setting.

Pelvic Surgeries

  • Pelvic floor therapy is an extremely beneficial piece of helping to prepare for an abdominal or pelvic surgery. Improving muscle function prior to a procedure can expedite the healing process, as well as improve surgical outcomes and overall pelvic health. Here’s what you can expect at your pre-operative session:

    • Education on pelvic anatomy and structures that will be impacted by your surgical procedure

    • Assessing your pelvic floor and movement patterns and collaborating on a plan to optimize health and function

    • Improving bowel, bladder, and sexual function to decrease stress on abdominal and pelvic structures after surgery

    • Restoring proper muscle function and movement patterns to help you heal faster after surgery

  • Our post-operative plan is geared towards helping you feel strong and safe as you navigate recovering from surgery. We want you to reconnect with your body and tap into what feels good so that you can hit your fitness and recovery goals with ease. Your customized care plan will be established collaboratively by you and your therapist at your first visit.

    • Discussing your individual healing process based on the procedure that you had

    • Reassessing your pelvic floor and movement patterns and collaborating on a plan to optimize health and function

    • Re-establishing breathing, posture, tissue mobility, and pre-operative baseline strength

    • Safely guiding you through an exercise program to meet your fitness and health goals
