Did You Know Dynamic Physical Therapy Offered Women’s Health Services?
Women’s health is an important part of what we treat at Dynamic Physical Therapy. At our Covington or Westwego, LA physical therapy clinic, we know there are a lot of painful conditions that could impact the life of any woman.
Pain and additional issues surrounding the pelvic floor can occur for a number of reasons. It can be limiting and, for some people, even a bit embarrassing. It can hinder your daily life and prevent you from doing some of your daily tasks or activities you love.
Will your Women’s Health services treat my condition?
If you are a woman suffering from occasional or chronic pelvic pain, physical therapy can help. Pelvic pain can occur for a vast number of reasons, and a certain pelvic therapy known as “pelvic floor rehabilitation” can help reduce or eliminate the pain and symptoms you are experiencing.
Typical patients who would be strong candidates for our pelvic floor rehabilitation treatments include:
- Pregnant women.
- Postpartum women.
- Postmenopausal women.
- Women with pelvic organ prolapse.
- Women dealing with urinary or fecal incontinence.
- Women dealing with pain during intercourse.
- Women dealing with pain during menstruation.
- And more!
What does a Women’s Health treatment plan look like?
According to ChoosePT,
“Women's health physical therapists have specialized education and expertise in the evaluation and treatment of both acute and chronic conditions that specifically affect women.”
At your initial appointment, you will undergo a thorough physical evaluation and review of medical history. This will help your physical therapist determine the best course of treatment for your needs. At Dynamic Physical Therapy, our services include:
- Education (patient handouts and thorough information concerning your condition to take home).
- Bladder training (surrounding your bladder schedule).
- Neuro retraining (incorporating pelvic floor muscle activation during simulated daily activities).
- Biofeedback.
- Pelvic floor muscle retraining.
- And more, as needed.
