Pelvic Health Physical Therapy Services
Hudson Valley Physical Therapy emphasizes quality one on one treatment sessions for all. We don’t “dabble” in Pelvic Health Physical Therapy, we exclusively focus on pelvic floor conditions and dysfunctions. You will receive the full attention of a highly trained licensed professional within the privacy and comfort of our office. Our focus is finding long-lasting relief by treating the “why” of your symptoms and not just the symptoms themselves.
Our services include:
- Comprehensive musculoskeletal and biomechanical evaluation, including pelvic floor muscle assessment.
- Advanced external and/or internal manual therapy techniques such as soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release, visceral manipulation, nerve manipulation, craniosacral therapy, and scar massage.
- Treatment plans individualized for YOU and your specific goals
- No cookie cutter exercises
- No being handed off to an aide or to someone who does not
understand your condition
- Educating you on your condition, the role of pelvic physical therapy in
helping you heal and how best you can manage your
symptoms/condition to live the life you want to live.
