At Lady Bits, we offer pelvic floor therapy.
Pelvic floor therapy is a specialized kind of therapy to relieve symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction and help the muscles work the way they should to support your urinary and reproductive tracts.
There may be a variety of reasons that lead you to our door, but all will receive the same quality and care in treatment. It is our mission to make all patients feel welcome, safe, and heard.
During your first visit, we will review your medical history, your current issue and all surrounding symptoms. We will then explain the examination process in full detail using models and pictures. Based on your specific level of comfort, we can complete the full exam or any part that you feel comfortable with. Feel free to bring your baby, husband, family member or friend for a chaperone.
Reasons women visit Lady Bits:
-
Caring and preparing your bits for the most amazing miracle. Ensuring your pelvic floor and the rest of you is best prepared for the changing demands in your body. Experiencing pelvic pain in pregnancy is common, but not normal. We provide interventions to treat pubic symphysis dysfunction, low back/SI pain, round ligament pain, and perineal preparation as well as functional core strengthening exercises to meet your body as it grows.
-
Helping the recovery of your pelvic floor and the rest of your bits after you pass a cantaloupe through something much smaller. We address and treat all the biomechanical changes that occurred during pregnancy (expanded rib cage, shifted and often misaligned pelvic bones, myofascial restrictions around your entire trunk, visceral changes in organ positioning) before we start any exercises. Structure determines function, and many women find they cannot connect to their core or ‘feel like themselves' ' in their body postpartum. We start with the bodywork, and finish with exercises to ensure the best outcomes. If you ended up with a C-seciton or required suturing for perineal tearing, we will address scar tissue to reduce pain and improve tissue mobility as well.
-
Because sex is not supposed to hurt. It's not. Initial entry or deep within, sex shouldn't hurt.
-
We've all heard the jokes about wearing diapers when growing old, or leaking after having babies...Not necessary. Often leaking is about abdominal pressure management, which requires total core functioning between your pelvic floor, abdominal wall, and your diaphragm.
-
Plan your life around the closest toilet? Know all the pit stops on your road trips? No more losing sleep because of that bossy bladder.
-
Aching heavy pelvis? Difficulty emptying your bladder or bowels? A bulge where there shouldn't be? Using exercise and structural bodywork and visceral mobilization to reduce symptoms and restore function.
-
When the thought of sitting down makes you cringe, it's time for skilled intervention. Everything between your feet and your head can affect your pelvis and the contents within. Low back, SI joint, pelvic pain and more, it's all connected.
-
Sore hard boob? We offer gentle ultrasound to unclog those pathways and Red Light therapy to reduce inflammation. One clog is usually 30 minutes, the whole boob blocked or both boobs can be a full hour.
