So you went to your 6 week postpartum check up and you got the “all clear”! But you know yourself and knew something was still not right. You were peeing your pants and feeling heavy down there and asked your provider for a referral for pelvic floor physical therapy. And they said “you can just google those exercises, give it time”. Now you’re in this stage with your almost toddler and nothing has changed. You don’t have to wait any longer or make another appointment with your provider, you can go straight to the pelvic pt and get started!
If you have pelvic organ prolapse repair surgery scheduled, pelvic floor PT is still an important part of your plan. 👇
Surgery can repair the anatomical support—but it may not address why the prolapse developed in the first place.
Factors like chronic straining, constipation, repetitive heavy lifting with poor pressure management, persistent coughing, pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, and movement or strength deficits can continue to place stress on the pelvic floor.
Pelvic floor physical therapy before and after surgery can help identify and address those contributing factors, improve your understanding of pressure management, and give you even better surgical outcomes.
✨ Pelvic floor PT + surgery doesn’t have to be an either/or decision. A comprehensive approach can help support both your recovery and your long-term pelvic health.
🔦A scavenger hunt for your pelvic floor! I wanted to think outside the box for a fun little goodie bag to hand out to moms at my local gym ISI® Elite Training - Wilmington, NC and I created this little checklist to perform to gain a better sense of how their pelvic floor functions.
1. Appreciate your v***a, every one is unique and beautiful in its own way
2. Use the mirror to watch what your body does when you try to contract your pelvic floor. You should see the tissue gently lift upwards and in
3. Then try to do the opposite, gently bear down and try to lengthen the tissue towards the mirror.
If any of these steps are difficult to do, don’t quite look as you expected in the mirror, or cause pain-you would likely benefit from a consultation by a pelvic floor physical therapist. DM if you would like to learn more!

My goal isn’t to treat symptoms—it’s to find the why behind them and create a plan that gets you back to living your life.
Thank you for trusting me with your care and for sharing your experience. 🧡
If you’re ready for one-on-one, personalized physical therapy, I’d love to help.

Here are the real reasons patients are choosing Phocus Physical Therapy lately:
1. They’re getting one-on-one every session with the doctor of physical therapy who evaluated them at their first appointment. The therapist has a plan that adapts to the patients needs and they’re not distracted by other patients or phone calls
2. It costs less than in-network care for most patients and the price is transparent. There’s no bill in the mail 30 days later that they weren’t expecting.
3. Because the therapist can give the patient their best care regardless of insurance coverage and they can give them their full attention, patients are actually getting better faster even at 1 time per week.
4. The treatment plan is based on their goals, not the insurance company’s. For patients who want to run a 5k without peeing, or do jumping jacks without wearing a pad, insurance doesn’t care about those goals and they won’t pay for it. But at Phocus PT, the patient’s goals are really all that matters.
5. There is no wasted time. No 10 minute warm up on the bike, no heat packs, no staying 75 minutes to get more units from insurance, and no waiting room.
