Pregnancy

Pelvic therapy during pregnancy supports your body as it adapts to the physical, hormonal, and postural changes of pregnancy. Your therapist assesses how the pelvic floor, hips, spine, abdomen, and nervous system are responding to these shifts, identifying early signs of tension, instability, or imbalance that may contribute to pain or leakage. Treatment may include gentle manual therapy, pelvic floor and core coordination work, postural and movement strategies, and techniques to reduce pressure, improve mobility, and create space and comfort as your baby grows.
 

These sessions are helpful for addressing common symptoms—such as low back pain, hip or pubic symphysis pain, pelvic pressure, or urinary leaking—but they are just as valuable for preventing these issues from developing in the first place. By improving alignment, mobility, and muscular support, pregnancy pelvic therapy helps your body adapt more comfortably, promotes easier movement, and prepares the pelvis for labor and postpartum recovery.

Many clients find that their pregnancy feels significantly better, safer, and more
supported with pelvic therapy as part of their care.

Birth Prep

Birth preparation sessions support individuals and birthing partners in preparing the pelvis, pelvic floor, and nervous system for labor and delivery. Your therapist assesses mobility, tension patterns, and breathing mechanics to identify factors that may influence labor progress or postpartum recovery.
 

Treatment may include manual release of tight muscles, strategies for pelvic mobility, perineal preparation techniques, labor positions, and breathwork to support ease during birth. These sessions help you enter labor feeling informed, grounded, and connected to your body’s natural capacity for birth.
 

A key focus of this work is to help reduce the likelihood of tearing—especially 3rd and 4th degree tears—and to support a smoother, more efficient pushing phase.

Postpartum

Postpartum recovery sessions are designed to help you heal and reconnect with your body after childbirth. Your therapist evaluates the pelvic floor, core, and surrounding structures to understand how pregnancy and delivery have impacted your movement, comfort, and strength.

Treatment may include gentle manual therapy, cesarean or perineal scar mobilization, pelvic floor retraining, diastasis recti support, and guidance on returning safely to daily activities, exercise, or intimacy. Whether you are weeks, months, or years postpartum, these sessions aim to restore confidence in your body and promote balanced, functional healing.

Back/Hip/Tailbone Pain

Pelvic therapy for back, hip, and tailbone pain examines how the pelvic floor interacts with the spine, hips, abdominal muscles, and surrounding connective tissues. In many cases, the pelvic floor is the missing link—an overlooked contributor that traditional approaches may not assess. During your session, your therapist identifies tension patterns, alignment issues, fascial restrictions, nervous system dysregulation, or movement habits that may be driving your discomfort.
 

Treatment may include hands-on release techniques, targeted core and pelvic stabilization, postural retraining, and strategies to improve mobility and reduce strain. By assessing not only the musculoskeletal system but also the fascial and nervous system components that often underlie persistent pain, we are able to uncover and treat the root causes that keep symptoms from resolving.

​

These sessions help restore balanced movement and reduce pain at its source—not just where it is felt—allowing your body to finally begin healing in a more complete and
lasting way.

Pelvic Pain

Pelvic pain sessions address complex, often overlapping factors that contribute to discomfort in the pelvis, abdomen, or lower back. Your therapist conducts a thorough evaluation to understand muscular tension, nerve sensitivity, movement limitations, and nervous system involvement.

Treatment may include gentle manual therapy, pelvic floor downtraining, mobility work, breathwork, and techniques designed to reduce pain and restore a sense of safety and ease within the body. These sessions support meaningful relief and help you reconnect with your body in a more comfortable, empowered way.

Urinary Issues

Urinary-focused pelvic therapy addresses symptoms such as leaking, urgency, frequency, hesitancy, and incomplete emptying. Your therapist explores how pelvic floor coordination, bladder habits, posture, and daily routines may be contributing to your symptoms.
 

Treatment may include manual therapy, pelvic floor retraining, bladder behavior coaching, breathwork, and strategies to calm the nervous system’s role in bladder sensitivity.
 

The goal is to improve bladder control, comfort, and confidence in everyday life.

Bowel Issues

Bowel-focused pelvic therapy supports individuals experiencing constipation, straining, incomplete evacuation, urgency, or fecal leakage. Your therapist assesses bowel mechanics, pelvic floor coordination, abdominal tension, and lifestyle factors that may be impacting regularity.
 

Treatment may include manual therapy, biofeedback-style retraining, abdominal and pelvic release techniques, toileting strategies, and guidance on supportive routines. These sessions are designed to promote healthy bowel habits and reduce discomfort or anxiety around bowel movements.

Sexual Dysfunction

Pelvic therapy for sexual dysfunction addresses concerns such as pain with intimacy, vaginismus, difficulty with penetration, decreased pleasure, or tension related to sexual trauma. Your therapist approaches this work with compassion, trauma-informed care, and a deep understanding of the pelvic floor’s role in sexual function.
 

Treatment may include gentle desensitization, manual therapy to release protective muscle patterns, pelvic floor coordination and relaxation, breathwork, and education about the interplay between the nervous system and sexual response. The goal is to help you experience intimacy with greater comfort, ease, and confidence.
