Pelvic Floor Therapy: Who it's for and who it's not for!

It's physical therapy month so let's clear the air about who we can help. It's more people than you think!

✅ Who We See at Uprise Pelvic Health

Women

• Pregnancy + postpartum: birth prep, C-section recovery, diastasis recti, scar tissue, leakage, prolapse, painful intercourse, tailbone pain, bowel changes

• Perimenopause + menopause: hormonal changes, bladder/bowel changes, pelvic heaviness, + hip pain

• Core, back, or hip issues that are often connected to pelvic floor dysfunction

• Wellness + prevention: returning safely to exercise including running, long-term pelvic health, or simply wanting to better understand your body

Men [Yep, men have pelvic floors, too!]

• Urinary leakage: especially after prostate surgery, or dribbling after going pee

• Urgency or frequency concerns

• Abdominal pain

• Pelvic pain, scrotal pain, tailbone pain

• Bowel concerns: constipation, straining

• Core or low back pain related to pelvic floor dysfunction

• Sexual health concerns: erectile dysfunction, pain with intimacy

❌ Who's Not Right for care at Uprise

• Patients looking for a “quick fix.” Healing is a journey and lasting change requires active participation and a willingness to address the root cause, not just mask symptoms.

• Patients wanting only surface-level care. Pelvic PT at Uprise isn’t about temporary relief; it’s about uncovering the deeper reasons behind your symptoms and working together to restore lasting function. That means we get to know you and you get to know us! It's the best part of our jobs.

• Patients not ready to engage in their care. Pelvic floor therapy is most effective when you’re curious, open, and committed to practicing strategies outside of appointments.

✨ Our Philosophy at Uprise Pelvic Health

Pelvic health is more than kegels and exercises. While movement and strengthening are part of what we do, our approach goes deeper. We want to understand the why behind your symptoms, help you reconnect with your body, + empower you with tools that last far beyond our clinic.

We believe:

• Healing should address the whole person - body, mind, + lifestyle.

• Real change comes from looking beneath the surface, not chasing quick fixes.

• Education, connection, and prevention are just as important as treatment.

If you’re ready to move beyond surface-level solutions and lean into lasting, root-cause healing - you’re in the right place.

Dr. Gina's Autumnal Faves:

Place of Respite: Prairie West Library – a relaxing place and so many books – a great respite for myself + my whole family.

Something to Love Right Now: Eufora Nourish Beautifying Serum – a little goes a long way AND it smells a little like skittles :) https://eufora.net/collections/hydrate-repair/products/beautifying-serum

Fave Drink: Anything hot and warm. Herbal Tea, Green Tea, Coffee!  I love a warm mug in my hands.

Fave Movement: I love walking my dog; once it cools down + the bees aren't so busy, I look forward to hiking in the area.
