Men's Health Physical Therapy
- Do you have difficulty holding urine, have pain during urination, or need to urinate a few times during the night?
- Do you have pain during or after intercourse?
- Do you have difficulties attaining or sustaining an erection?
- Are you experiencing pain in the genitals, groin, rectum, pubic bone, or tailbone?
- Do you suffer from excess gas, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea?
- Do you have a problem holding your bowels?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, you should know that in many cases your problem can be treated with Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy.
Pelvic floor is a term we use to describe the muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue from the pubic bone to tail bone that support bowel, bladder, intestines, genitals, and rectum. It plays a very important role in making these organs function properly. Because the muscles of the pelvic floor are controlled by nerves, any medical condition or injury that impacts the health of nerves (including diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, back surgery, spinal stenosis, or trauma) can result in weakness or decreased control of the pelvic floor muscles.
Our men's health physical therapist Bella Kavalerchik, PT, is highly specialized in Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy and is devoted to providing one-to-one care and a customized treatment program for your condition.
Treatment may include manual therapy, specific exercises to relax, stretch, or strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, biofeedback, electrical stimulation, and laser therapy.
