Why Working with Experts Matters For You
There's a wide variety of experience and expertise when it comes to pelvic health. Some PTs will begin treating pelvic health after taking a single weekend course. Or perhaps only see a few pelvic health patients and spend most of their day working on ankles and shoulders.
This often leads to you receiving "one size fits all" treatment, just biofeedback or being told to Kegel. You might - or might not - see some temporary relief, but no one is getting to the 'why' so symptoms often return. You can spend weeks doing the same thing and be told 'pelvic PT just didn't work for me.' In fact, almost 70% of our patients have been to other facilities before finding relief at PelvicSanity.
Instead, our entire team specializes exclusively in pelvic health with extensive, specialized training. Some of the most complex patients from around the world fly in for treatment with our Out-of-Town Program. You'll know you're in expert hands from the moment you enter the clinic.
In practice this means your treatment is tailored specifically to you. We'll not only resolve your symptoms, but 'find the why' for lasting relief. You'll have a full pelvic floor and orthopedic assessment so we see the full picture and get you back to doing what you love with confidence. Give us a call to discover pelvic sanity!
"Pelvic Sanity is the only PT that was able to properly identify all my issues and help me begin a life back to pain free living; life changing!"
