What can you expect from your visit
The initial evaluation is 55 min and includes a detailed discussion about your medical history, symptoms, and goals for physical therapy. We often complete an orthopedic assessment to look at your range of motion, strength, posture, etc. If a pelvic exam is indicated, we will first educate and discuss with you the exam process (this can help us learn about your pelvic floor muscle strength, tenderness, tone, scar tissue, coordination, prolapse or laxity assessment, and more). Depending on patient preference, we can do a pelvic exam on the first visit, follow up visit, or defer if patient prefers to wait.
