You’re probably wondering what your first pelvic floor physical therapy visit will look like. You may even be a little anxious or scared. But there is truly nothing to be worried about! No speculum or cold tables reside here.
You will walk into our cozy office where we have calming oils diffusing and relaxing music playing. You will be greeted warmly and welcomed to help yourself to tea or water. Feel free to try the different seat cushions if you would like. Your therapist will then welcome you into a treatment room.
Our treatment rooms have a spa vibe and we’ll sit and discuss what you are coming in for. We will then go through an orthopedic assessment where we will assess your pelvic alignment, hips and back. If your symptoms warrant an internal pelvic exam and you feel ready, we will perform one on the first visit. Like we mentioned, there is no speculum or stirrups.
After the exam, you will get dressed and we will discuss what was found during the evaluation. We will discuss your personalized treatment plan and see if you have any questions or if any follow up appointments are necessary. It truly is a smooth and relaxing visit. Outside of appointments, you will have direct access to your therapist via your patient portal which also comes with an app where the therapist can assist you in tracking your progress. If you don't want to download the app, no problem!
We look forward to seeing you in the office to help you reach and strive beyond your goals!
