“I only wish I had learned sooner about pelvic floor therapy! At age 64 I have struggled with hip pain since my twenties. … Many years of Physical Therapy and no one gave me these perfect exercises—they actually feel good to do : ) So many paths to choose from to be pain free and I am grateful to have chosen this one.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Pelvic floor physical therapy is recommended anytime you start struggling with urinary leakage, urgency, pain with sex, bowel incontinence, or constipation.

    We also help program movements to optimize strength and bone health changes that occur in perimenopause.

  • It includes a conversation about your symptoms and when they began, a full-body movement assessment, hands-on treatment, and a personalized plan to help you return to activity.

    Treatment may include an internal pelvic floor assessment if you choose to consent to the exam. This helps us gain information on what is contributing to your pelvic floor symptoms, whether you are struggling with urinary leakage, urinary urgency, pain with sex, low back pain, or hip pain.

  • Not necessarily. An internal pelvic floor assessment is one tool to help us get a good picture of what could be contributing to your symptoms.

    At Revive Rehab, we want to know your goals and symptoms prior to making any recommendations. If we feel an internal exam would be helpful, we will educate, help you understand the anatomy, and always gain consent prior to treatment.

    You are always in control of your care. We can make meaningful progress with or without a pelvic floor internal exam!

  • No! In Missouri, you can begin physical therapy without a physician script for the first 30 days. This allows you to start treatment quickly instead of waiting weeks for another appointment.
