Here is a list of just some of the conditions and concerns we treat.
Women
Pregnancy & Postpartum Care

Birth Preparation (Pre-Hab): Educating expectant mothers on optimal pelvic relaxation, breathing techniques, and self-care strategies to prepare the body for labor and support tissue recovery.
Postpartum Recovery: Comprehensive virtual rehabilitation following vaginal or Cesarean births, addressing abdominal wall healing, scar management education, and restoring overall core function.
Bladder, Bowel & Core Dysfunction
Bladder & Bowel Control / Incontinence: Virtual management of stress incontinence (leaking with coughing, sneezing, or lifting), urge incontinence, fecal incontinence, and symptoms associated with an overactive bladder through targeted exercises and lifestyle strategies.
Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA): Assessing and rehabilitating excessive separation of the rectus abdominis muscles via video consultation, focusing on restoring tension, strength, and load transfer through the linea alba.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP): Supporting individuals with cystocele, rectocele, or uterine prolapse by teaching proper intra-abdominal pressure management, lifestyle modifications, and targeted pelvic health exercises.
Pelvic Pain & Chronic Conditions
Painful Sex (Dyspareunia) & Vaginismus: Educational and movement-based strategies to address superficial or deep discomfort during intercourse, helping clients navigate hypertonic pelvic muscles and fear-pain cycles.
Endometriosis & PCOS Pain: Managing chronic pelvic pain, pacing strategies, and movement modifications associated with inflammatory conditions like endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome.
Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome & IBS: Nervous system regulation strategies and pelvic relaxation techniques that complement medical management for chronic bladder and bowel irritation syndromes.
Specialized Surgeries & Life Transitions
Menopause & Perimenopause: Guidance for managing symptoms related to declining estrogen levels, such as genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), tissue changes, and associated bladder health shifts.
Vaginoplasty & Gender-Affirming Surgery Prep & Recovery: Specialized virtual pre-surgical conditioning and post-operative rehabilitation guidance for transgender women undergoing gender-affirming pelvic surgeries, focusing on movement, dilation support protocols, and functional recovery.
Men
Urinary & Bladder Dysfunction
Urinary Incontinence: Leakage management, particularly post-prostatectomy incontinence following prostate cancer surgery, utilizing targeted neuromuscular retraining and bladder habit strategies.
Overactive Bladder (OAB) & Urgency: Characterized by a sudden, intense need to urinate frequently, managed through customized fluid management, bladder retraining, and relaxation techniques.
Urinary Hesitancy & Retention: Difficulty initiating a urine stream or completely emptying the bladder, addressed through down-training strategies for hypertonic pelvic muscles.
Pain & Musculoskeletal Conditions
Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS): Virtual care for persistent pain in the perineum, lower abdomen, groin, lower back, or tailbone, focusing on nervous system calming, postural adjustments, and targeted movement.
Pudendal Neuralgia: Education and movement modifications to alleviate irritation of the pudendal nerve, focusing on relieving aggravation from sitting and daily postures.
Levator Ani Syndrome: Virtual management for rectal or pelvic discomfort caused by tension in the pelvic floor muscles, utilizing breathing mechanics and relaxation strategies.
Sexual Dysfunction
Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Addressing ED when linked to pelvic blood flow, posture, or muscle tension rather than organic vascular or hormonal factors, focusing on localized circulation and neuromuscular control.
Premature Ejaculation (PE): Guidance on managing ejaculation timing by learning to down-train and relax an overactive or hyper-reactive pelvic system.
Painful Ejaculation (Dysorgasmia): Comfort strategies and neuromuscular education for discomfort during or immediately following ejaculation linked to muscular tension.
Pre- and Post-Prostate Surgery Care
Pre-Hab (Pre-Surgical Conditioning): Strengthening and educational coaching on how to properly contract and relax pelvic muscles before undergoing prostatectomy or radiation therapy to improve post-operative recovery and continence outcomes.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation: Guided virtual recovery programs to restore bladder control, manage core and scar recovery, and rebuild endurance following prostate cancer treatments.
Everyone (Whole Body Care)
Note: A whole-body approach recognizes that the pelvic region does not function in isolation.

Sciatica & Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Dysfunction: Addressing nerve irritation and stabilizing hypermobile or fixated SI joints through tailored movement plans and postural education.
Coccydynia (Tailbone Pain): Postural re-education, ergonomic adjustments, and targeted exercises to relieve chronic or acute pain around the coccyx.
Knee, Foot & Ankle Pain: Treating lower extremity biomechanical issues and compensatory movement patterns that contribute to pelvic and spinal misalignments.
Upper Body & Repetitive Strain
Neck, Shoulder & Upper Back Pain: Managing postural tension, thoracic stiffness, and strain connected to computer work or caregiving habits (such as holding or nursing infants).
Headaches & Jaw Pain (TMJD): Relaxation and movement strategies addressing muscular tension in the jaw, upper cervical spine, and suboccipital region.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome & De Quervain's Tenosynovitis: Ergonomic advice and exercise strategies for nerve entrapments and tendon inflammations in the wrist and thumb.
Post-Surgical & Specialized Care
C-Section Scar Pain & Complications: Virtual guidance on self-administered scar mobilization techniques, myofascial release education, and movement strategies following Cesarean deliveries.
Mastitis & Clogged Milk Ducts: Education on self-care techniques, positioning, and gentle management strategies to help relieve postpartum breast inflammation.
Breast & Shoulder Surgery Recovery: Rehabilitation guidance following mastectomies, lumpectomies, reconstruction, or related procedures, focusing on range-of-motion exercises and gradual functional rebuilding.
