A Message From Doctor Sarah, Owner & Founder of Balance Within - Integrative Physical Therapy and Women's Health Expert
- Feeling pelvic or abdominal pressure or heaviness after being on your feet for too long or after having a bowel movement?
- Fearful of not knowing what you can safely do for exercise?
- Being worried about mysterious low back pain that won’t go away with rest and stretches?
- Feeling the sensation of something coming out of your vagina or like you’re sitting on a small ball?
- Panicking and feeling terrified because your doctor said you have a prolapse and your friend just had surgery for that!?
- Feeling self conscious and insecure about intimacy because things just aren’t quite feeling right or feeling like they’re in the right place anymore ‘down there’?
- Having difficulties having a complete bowel movement?
- Looking for a long-term and natural solution to manage your symptoms WITHOUT SURGERY?
- “Things just won’t be the same down there after having kids.”
- “Only surgery can help with that.”
- They will have to avoid any type of impact activities for life. “Running and crossfit just may not be in your future again”
- Just take a stool softener to help with bowel movements
- Doing kegels is all that physical therapy can offer.
- There’s nothing you can do, this is just going to keep getting worse until you need surgery (NOT TRUE!!)
- In fact , NONE of this is true and THERE IS SO MUCH THAT CAN BE DONE TO FULLY HEAL THIS PROBLEM!! I promise, you’re not ruined for life. Not even close.
The Truth Is...
- Resting it doesn’t change anything. You might get a small temporary relief, but then when you get active again you’ll still be suffering from pelvic pain and pressure.
- While it’s very common, It’s NOT NORMAL to have pelvic pain, heaviness, pressure or prolapse.
- Exercise can be GREAT for prolapse. Re-learning how to breathe, manage pressure and engage your core can get you back to the activities you love to do!
- Surgery is not the only option. Many surgeries for prolapse end up with recurrence (the same problems coming back!) because they didn’t solve the REASON you have it in the first place.
- Physical Therapy is an effective tool for helping to manage these symptoms! In fact, we get to the ROOT CAUSE and prevent it from ever coming back!
When It Comes To Solving A Serious Problem Like Pelvic Organ Prolapse...
You must choose the right provider for your health. If you don’t, you could end up getting surgery (when it could have been avoided), doing exercises that may potentially make things worse or simply just living with these debilitating symptoms for years to come (no fun!)
Getting the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment is VITAL to feeling strong and confident and managing (or eliminating!) your symptoms.
Working with a provider who understands that THE ENTIRE BODY WORKS TOGETHER is vital to your recovery. Our team has a strong track record of helping simple as well as complex cases of pelvic pain and pressure due to pelvic organ prolapse. We are the clinic that other PT’s send their ‘tricky’ patients to due to our advanced and specialty training. We address the pieces that others have missed… this means we help deliver results others can’t.
To ensure a full recovery, we have to not just treat the symptoms. You must have an expert provider who is willing to get to the ROOT CAUSE of your symptoms and dysfunction. That’s when you’ll get a PERMANENT solution to your pelvic pressure, pain and prolapse problems.
At Balance Within – Integrative Physical Therapy, We Specialize In Helping Women Who Are Tired of Leaking, Dealing With Pelvic Pain and Pressure and Wanting to Get Their Body Back In Shape After Baby… (Even If It’s Been A Few Decades) WITHOUT Medications or Surgeries
At Balance Within – Integrative Physical Therapy we’ve created a 3 step process to managing and often eliminating your symptoms AND make sure you don’t have to deal with them ever again.
Step #1 - We Want To Listen To Your Story
Our medical system is frustrating. You wait weeks, sometimes months, for an appointment, only to get to talk to the doctors for 10 minutes before they have to run to the next patient and you’re left sitting there wondering, “What just happened?”
Even most physical therapy clinics operate this way. They’re not attentive, they’re fast-paced, and your therapist doesn’t have time to learn what goals are important to you, or to work with you one-on-one. That’s why we operate so differently!
And that’s why our first step is to listen to your story.
After successfully helping many women who are struggling with pelvic organ prolapse, we know no two people are alike. Each person has a different body, a different history, and different types of pain and/or symptoms.
That is why our first step is to have an open conversation and time for you to tell your story. That way we get a deep understanding of what’s going on not just with your body, but also how it’s impacting your life.
Step #2 - FIND OUT WHY YOUR SYMPTOMS STARTED
Many people have a diagnosis, or medical term for what’s going on with their body. Maybe their doctor gave it to them, maybe tests showed the diagnosis, or maybe you found it online.
Perhaps you’ve been given the label of Pelvic Organ Prolapse, urinary incontinence, bowel elimination problems or pelvic pain.
You could have been told that your only choice was to rest, avoid exercise or have surgery.
Sometimes, those things bring temporary relief, but they’re not addressing what is CAUSING the problem in the first place. There are many causes of Pelvic Organ Prolapse, some preventable and some not, however there are many things that can be done to manage or even eliminate symptoms regardless of the reason it happened.
Every person’s cause of prolapse, pain or symptoms is different. No one has the exact same problem caused by the exact same thing as another person.
Our goal at Balance Within – Integrative Physical Therapy is to find the original (and current) causes of your problem, so not only does your prolapse go away, it STAYS AWAY!
Step #3 - GET RID OF THE PROBLEM & KEEP IT FROM COMING BACK
This is when the big transformations occur. We develop a personalized plan that allows you to…
…Get back to exercising without fear of prolapse worsening or fear of urine leakage.
…Be able to play with your kids, lift, and carry them with no problems!
…Return to intimacy with your spouse without fear of pain.
…Get back to your active lifestyle you love (traveling, running, golf – whatever you love to do) without worrying about a surgery being just around the corner!
Our best clients are those who are motivated and ready to win back their active life. (Even if they feel stuck right now!)
Want to know more about our availability and costs before making any commitment to coming in?
You don’t have to sacrifice the activities & family lifestyle you love over problems that can be healed naturally.
Sincerely,
Doctor Sarah
