  • What to expect on your first visit for Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy:

    A Physical Therapist (PT) with specialized training in pelvic floor muscle dysfunction will perform a detailed evaluation in a private setting during your first visit. This will include understanding your general medical history, history related to your current condition, stress level, preferred activities and lifestyle, and your desired goals. You’ll be asked questions about your eating, drinking, and bathroom habits. Your posture, breathing pattern, strength and motion of your hips, spine and abdominals will be assessed to determine what may be contributing to your symptoms. The muscles of your pelvis (including the pelvic floor) will be evaluated to determine if any weakness, tightness or in-coordination exists that may play a role in your incontinence. An examination of your pelvic floor muscles may consist of an external and/or internal assessment to determine your strength, coordination and tension of these muscles. An internal assessment can also provide the therapist with information regarding any muscular tender spots or trigger points that may need treatment. Know that you can agree or decline any portion of the recommended evaluation. Biofeedback may also be used during the initial visit if determined necessary by your physical therapist. Biofeedback is a non-invasive procedure that measures the activity of your pelvic floor muscles. Biofeedback does not hurt and allows you to see your pelvic floor muscle activity on a computer screen or hand-held unit, to better understand your muscle’s function. Biofeedback may also be used to monitor your progress over time. Your PT will discuss a treatment plan with you that will include the frequency and duration of your PT sessions and planned interventions. Recommended treatments may include: techniques to reduce urinary urgency and frequency, retaining pelvic floor muscles to work correctly, education in bladder irritants and dietary/fluid modifications, exercises that assist with pelvic floor function (may include breathing, hip, back or abdominal muscle exercises), posture instruction, and behavioral/stress management strategies. 
  • Informed Consent for Pelvic Floor- Evaluation & Treatment

    The term “informed consent” means that the potential risks, benefits, and alternatives of therapy evaluation and treatment have been explained to you. The therapist provides a wide range of services and I understand that I will receive information at the initial visit concerning the evaluation, treatment, and options available for my condition. I also acknowledge and understand that I have been referred for evaluation and treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. Pelvic floor dysfunctions include, but are not limited to, urinary or fecal incontinence, difficulty with bowel, bladder or sexual functions, painful scars after childbirth or surgery, persistent sacroiliac or low backpain, or pelvic pain conditions. I understand that to evaluate my condition it may be necessary, initially and periodically, to have my therapist perform an internal pelvic floor muscle examination. This examination is performed by observing and/or palpating the perineal region including the vagina and/or rectum. This evaluation will assess skin conditions, reflexes, muscle tone, length, strength and endurance, scar mobility and function of the pelvic floor region. Such evaluation may include vaginal or rectal sensors for muscle biofeedback and use of speculum. Treatment may include, but not be limited to the following: observation, palpation, use of vaginal weights, vaginal or rectal sensors for biofeedback and/or electrical stimulation, ultrasound, photo biomodulation, heat, cold, stretching and strengthening exercises, soft tissue and/or join mobilization and education instruction. Potential risks: I may experience an increase in my current level of pain or discomfort, or an aggravation of my existing injury. This discomfort is usually temporary; if it does not subside in 1-3 days, I agree to contact my therapist. Potential benefits: may include an improvement in my symptoms and an increase in my ability to perform my daily activities. I may experience increased strength, awareness, flexibility and endurance in my movements. I may experience decreased pain and discomfort. I should gain a greater knowledge about managing my condition and the resources available to me. Alternatives: If I do not wish to participate in the therapy program, I will discuss my medical, surgical or pharmacological alternatives with my physician or primary care provider.  Cooperation with treatment: I understand that in order for therapy to be effective, I must come in as scheduled unless there are unusual circumstances that prevent me from attending therapy. I agree to cooperate with and carry out the home program assigned to me. If I have difficulty with any part of my treatment program, I will discuss it with my therapist. No warranty: I understand that the physical therapist cannot make any promises or guarantees regarding a cure for or improvement in my condition. I understand that my therapist will share with me her options regarding potential results of physical therapy treatment for my condition and will discuss all treatment options with me before I consent to treatment. I have informed my therapist of any condition that would limit my ability to have an evaluation or to be treated.
