The Pelvic Floor/Incontinence Clinic provides successful treatment for bladder
and bowel incontinence and pelvic pain due to weak pelvic floor muscles.
The average person waits eight years before seeking care. You don’t need
to wait that long.
The pelvic floor muscles are a series of muscles that form a bridge across
the opening of the pelvis. These muscle support and keep organs functioning
correctly in the pelvis. The function of our bladder or bowel and the experience
of pelvic pain may come from weak muscles, scar tissue, muscle spasms, disalignment
of muscles or tissue failure.
There are five pieces to successful treatment of pelvic floor/incontinence:
- Biofeedback:
Through a computer screen you can observe the activity of your muscles
to help you strengthen them during exercises.
- Manual
Therapy: This is a gentle hands-on technique that helps heal scar
tissue and realign muscles.
- Electrical
Stimulation: The use of low level electrical impulses helps to strengthen
and retrain muscles which control urinary and bowel function.
- Exercise:
You will be taught an individualized home program of exercises to help
prevent future problems.
- Education:
Through educational materials you learn how to better care for your
body and the functions of your bladder and bowel.
- The
Right Therapist: When coping with these sensitive problems you want
someone who is specially trained to care for these problems.
Let St. Rita’s put the pieces together for you. Most
insurances pay for this care. |
