Women's Health Concerns Do Not Have To Be Ignored

Many of our patients tell us they are confused by all the information out there. One doctor says to go to pelvic floor physical therapy while the other says you don't need it. Your friends say, "Welcome to your new body" after having a baby, but you are wondering if this is normal. You feel awkward talking about your pain issues. 

​

Our intention is to be a research-backed resource for women on pelvic health and menstrual cycles. We built a unique road where sex education meets expert hands-on pelvic Physical Therapy. We hope you leave here empowered to take control of your pelvic health, fertility, and your life.

Dr. Melissa Thompson specializes in working with women with pelvic health concerns, including bowel, bladder, and sexual dysfunction. She empowers women to face their fears and overcome pelvic pain, pelvic floor issues, and infertility.

Pelvic Floor Therapy Should be a Full Body Approach

Too often we hear incorrect advice, such as "do your kegels" or "use this biofeedback machine".

​

The problem with that approach is that learning to kegel or contract your pelvic floor is not for everyone and is often done incorrectly. 

​

Many patients need to learn how to relax their pelvic floor and how to strengthen these muscles within the whole body system. 

​

We get our patients up and moving so you can find true lasting relief by learning how to coordinate your pelvic floor during daily movements and exercises.

"Dr. Mel helped me understand the coordination of my pelvic floor in my day-to-day life and my lifting life. My life doesn’t include “just in case” bathroom runs and I am successfully bringing my heavy lifts back up with proper pelvic floor coordination to not have an accident. It’s NOT normal to leak."
