Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy: What Women Should Know

Introduction

If you’ve ever experienced bladder leaks when sneezing, discomfort after childbirth, or unexplained pelvic pain, you’re not alone. Many women face these challenges—yet few know that pelvic floor therapy can be life-changing.

At PT of the City, we specialize in pelvic floor therapy in NYC, helping women restore comfort, confidence, and control.

What Is Pelvic Floor Therapy?

Supporting Core Functions

Pelvic floor therapy focuses on strengthening and relaxing the muscles that support your bladder, uterus, and bowels. When these muscles are weak or too tight, they can cause significant issues.

Common Issues It Addresses

Therapy can help with urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, postpartum discomfort, and even pain during intimacy. Our therapists use gentle techniques and tailored exercises to restore healthy pelvic function.

Who Can Benefit?

New and Expecting Mothers

Women who have recently given birth or are preparing for delivery can benefit greatly from pelvic floor therapy.

Everyday Challenges

If you struggle with bladder leaks, pelvic pain, or diastasis recti (ab separation), this therapy can make a significant difference in your daily comfort and mobility.

Post-Surgery Recovery

Women recovering from pelvic surgery can use therapy to rebuild strength, restore function, and heal safely.

How Sessions Work
