Pelvic floor health is crucial for women, especially during and after pregnancy. At Kinetic Sports Medicine and Performance, we offer specialized Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy services to support women through their unique journeys of pregnancy and postpartum recovery.
With locations in Milwaukee and Delafield, we are dedicated to helping women achieve optimal health and well-being. Let's explore the importance of pelvic floor physical therapy and how it can benefit you.
Understanding Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy
Pelvic floor physical therapy addresses various issues related to the pelvic floor muscles, which play a vital role in bladder, bowel, and sexual function.
Common conditions treated include urinary incontinence, painful intercourse, urinary frequency and urgency, diastasis rectus, and pelvic organ prolapse. By treating the whole person and not just the pelvic floor, we can help you live a life free of these inconveniences.
