Prior to your pelvic floor therapy visit you will complete paperwork that includes questions about your health history and your reason for coming in. At your first appointment you will have an opportunity to share any information that is relevant to your care. Based on the information you provide a detailed examination will be performed, which may include assessment of muscular strength and mobility, posture assessment, analysis of breathing technique, assessment of pain, biomechanics during activity, and internal/external pelvic floor assessment. Based on findings from the exam and your individual goals, a treatment plan with be recommended.
If your doctor has given you a prescription for physical therapy please bring that with you to your appointment. However, a prescription or referral is not needed. The state of Kansas has direct access to physical therapy which allows for evaluation and treatment without referral from another provider. If within 10 visits or 15 business days you are not progressing toward treatment goals, the PT must get a referral from an appropriately licensed healthcare provider.
I offer a few virtual or in-home appointments. Please contact me to discuss your situation to determine if you are appropriate for this type of visit.
