3 women’s health PT services that are commonly used

• Pelvic floor therapy

Pelvic floor physical therapy is one of the best options for dealing with problems such as a leaking bladder, pelvic pain and weak pelvic floor muscles. Those who are recovering from surgery may want to consider this option as it grants greater control over pelvic muscles. 

This treatment option may include exercises, hands-on care and help learning how to control your muscles better.

• Pre- and post-operative care

Physical therapy can help you heal after surgeries such as C-sections, hysterectomies or mastectomies. You can also do prehab PT that helps prepare your body for surgery by improving strength and mobility.

Practices such as scar tissue mobilization and lymphatic drainage can be especially helpful after surgery. When accompanied by gentle movement exercises, these techniques can promote recovery and lessen the risk of complications after surgery. 

• Hip pain support 

Women’s health physical therapy can also address hip joint pain and alignment issues that come with pregnancy or aging. Changes during pregnancy can cause hip instability and discomfort. Physical therapy helps improve alignment and strengthen the surrounding muscles. Targeted movement strategies and posture education can also support long-term joint health and reduce strain in daily activities.
