Pelvic floor physical therapy before and after surgery
Supporting you every step of your surgical journey
Surgery is a major event, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Physical therapy before and after surgery can help you feel stronger, more prepared, and more confident throughout your recovery.
Pre-Operative Surgical CareSupport for every part of your surgical journey
Just like athletes prepare before a major event, your body can benefit from preparation before surgery.
A pre-operative pelvic floor physical therapy evaluation allows us to assess your movement patterns, muscle function, and any existing concerns that may impact recovery. We’ll teach you strategies to support recovery, manage symptoms, and feel more confident heading into surgery.
Pre-operative pelvic physical therapy can help you:
Improve muscle awareness and activation
Understand what to expect during recovery
Reduce compensatory movement patterns
Develop strategies for managing discomfort
Build confidence before surgery
When your body has already learned these skills, it can be easier to reconnect with movement and function after surgery.
Post-Operative Surgical CareAlready had surgery?
Now is a critical time to benefit from pelvic physical therapy.
The weeks and months following surgery are an important time for rebuilding strength, restoring movement, and addressing symptoms that may develop during recovery.
Your Pelvic Physical Therapy will focus on:
Restoring mobility and function
Improving muscle coordination
Managing scar tissue restrictions
Addressing pelvic pain or discomfort
Returning safely to exercise and daily activities
Rebuilding confidence in your body
Our goal is to help you feel supported throughout recovery and return to the activities that matter most to you.
