Below are the common concerns we treat—and why pelvic floor physical therapy should be your first step:




Many men experience urinary symptoms such as urgency, frequency, or leakage, especially following prostate surgery.

Every session is tailored to the individual—not just their diagnosis, but their story, goals, and overall well-being. Our whole-body, root-cause approach is backed by evidence and focused on long-term healing.
Here are the most common concerns we treat—and why pelvic floor physical therapy should be your first step:

Nearly 1 in 3 women will experience urinary incontinence at some point in their life. Despite its prevalence, it is not a normal part of aging—and it is highly treatable.
First-line treatment: Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is recommended as the first-line treatment for urinary incontinence by the American College of Physicians.


Effectiveness: Studies show that up to 80% of women with stress urinary incontinence see significant improvement with pelvic floor therapy alone.


At Poised, we assess pelvic floor function, breathing mechanics, pressure strategies, and daily habits to restore control and confidence—without surgery or long-term dependence on pads.

Urinary Incontinence

Chronic constipation and fecal leakage affect up to 25% of women, especially as they age or after childbirth. These symptoms can be embarrassing and isolating—but pelvic floor therapy provides hope.
Effectiveness: Research indicates that pelvic floor muscle training improves bowel function in 70–80% of patients with constipation and fecal incontinence.


We take a detailed look at muscle coordination, toileting posture, pressure management, and lifestyle factors to restore normal, healthy bowel function.

Bowel Dysfunction (Constipation & Incontinence)

Pain with sex, pelvic exams, tampon use, or daily sitting affects up to 20% of women and is often caused by overactive pelvic floor muscles, scar tissue, or nerve involvement.
Clinical recommendation: Pelvic floor physical therapy is an important adjunct to most treatments for dyspareunia and vulvodynia. PMC


We provide trauma-informed care in a safe space, using gentle hands-on therapy, education, and movement to reduce pain and restore comfort with intimacy and daily activities.


Pelvic Pain & Sexual Dysfunction

Surgeries like hysterectomy, endometriosis excision, or pelvic organ repair are sometimes necessary—but recovery can be smoother and outcomes better with pelvic floor PT.
Benefits: Pelvic floor physical therapy can help alleviate symptoms such as urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and sexual dysfunction that may occur during menopause. Pelvic Health Physical Therapy


We tailor sessions before and after surgery to support healing, rebuild strength, and optimize outcomes from your procedure.



Pre- and Post-Operative Support

Up to 10% of women are diagnosed with endometriosis, but the impact goes beyond painful periods. It can lead to chronic pelvic pain, muscle guarding, and whole-body compensation patterns.
Effectiveness: Non-pharmacologic conservative therapies, including pelvic floor physical therapy, are therapeutic options for women with endometriosis for improving pain intensity and physical function. PubMed


We offer a gentle, whole-body approach to reduce pain, restore mobility, and support your long-term comfort.




Endometriosis

About 80% of women will experience low back pain in their lifetime—and in many cases, pelvic floor dysfunction plays a hidden role.
Connection: The pelvic floor is a key part of the deep core system; when it's not functioning optimally, stability in the lumbar spine is compromised.


We look beyond just the spine to restore balance and strength to your entire core system—so back pain doesn’t keep coming back.






Low Back Pain

Hip pain is common in women, especially postpartum or post-menopause, and often stems from instability or overuse due to pelvic floor dysfunction.
Insight: Many athletes may suffer from the overactivity of their musculature both in pregnancy and postpartum, and symptoms can be made worse by performing repeated and regular muscle contractions at the pelvic floor when not indicated. PMC


We assess the whole kinetic chain to restore harmony between your hips, core, and pelvic floor, helping reduce strain and support pain-free movement.







Hip Pain

POP affects up to 50% of women who have given birth, but symptoms like pressure, bulging, or heaviness don’t have to limit your life.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP)

Severe menstrual cramps impact up to 90% of menstruating women, and when pain is chronic, it may be linked to tension in the pelvic floor and abdomen.

Our approach aims to improve mobility and balance throughout the pelvis and abdomen, giving your body the support it needs for a less painful cycle.







Dysmenorrhea (Painful Periods)

The hormonal shifts of menopause can lead to symptoms like dryness, urgency, leaking, and discomfort—but these changes don’t have to define your experience.
Benefits: Pelvic floor physical therapy can help alleviate symptoms such as urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and sexual dysfunction that may occur during menopause. Pelvic Health Physical Therapy

Our therapy focuses on individualized exercises to alleviate pain and restore function.

Pelvic girdle pain (PGP) is a prevalent issue during and after pregnancy, often resulting from joint instability and muscle imbalances.
