Alex and Dustienne treat directly, but gently, and offer a holistic framework for healing. Physical therapists are trained to evaluate and treat the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. We address the site of pain or weakness and create a plan of care to prevent additional episodes. During treatment, home programs are critical to create new health habits, self-treat, and manage pain flare-ups.
Skilled, specialized pelvic floor physical therapy addresses several aspects of pelvic floor dysfunction. In addition to manual therapy and neuromuscular reeducation, physical therapists prescribe corrective exercise for the client to self-manage symptoms and maintain optimal movement patterns and functional strength. In our clinical practice, we integrate several styles of manual therapy, corrective exercise, biofeedback, yoga, and address pain with neuroscience education.
We don't just treat the part of the body where the pain and weakness is showing up. We look beyond that area to identify the cause of the pain or weakness and how to prevent it in the future.
