    PREVENTION

    The best way to prevent issues is to stop them from happening in the first place! Consider this a well-visit for your pelvic floor. At this visit you will receive a full evaluation, notification of possible concerns that were identified, and education on what to do for good pelvic health. We will give you exercises to do at home if needed.

    PREGNANCY - Preparation & Postpartum

    Nobody should have to worry about how pregnancy and childbirth will affect their pelvic floor. Visits with us will help you prepare your body for the demands of pregnancy and childbirth. You can also decrease pain and improve your strength and stamina during pregnancy. A postpartum visit (usually at least 6 weeks after your baby’s birth) will help your body recover from childbirth and will help teach you how to support your body’s healing.

    PERIMENOPAUSE

    The changes happening in your body as you approach perimenopause affect your pelvic floor. If there are underlying, functional issues with your pelvic floor that you’re not aware of, they can start getting worse at this stage of your life. Any work that you do to understand how your pelvic floor functions and set up healthy habits before perimenopause will greatly affect how well your body navigates through this stage of life.

What Patients Are Saying

“If you are reading this and wondering if pelvic therapy can help you, if you'll feel comfortable, and if Renew is the right place - I can't recommend Amanda enough! I struggled with bladder issues for years, seeing a range of doctors and trying to figure out what was causing my pain and discomfort and not making any progress. I didn't know much about pelvic therapy and I was definitely nervous about trying this route but I knew I had to try something else. In the first visit Amanda was able to identify my issues and start me on a path to treating the underlying problems. She is incredibly warm, friendly and immediately put me at ease – I can't imagine a better experience. With her knowledge and expertise, she was able to answer so many questions I had and teach me numerous tools and techniques that I'll be able to use for years to come. After feeling overwhelmed and hopeless for so long, she has given me relief both physically and emotionally. I am beyond thankful to have found her and this wonderful practice.” -KL
