Men’s Pelvic Health
Men’s Pelvic Health at Foundations Physical Therapy
At Foundations Physical Therapy, we specialize in helping men overcome the unique challenges related to pelvic floor dysfunction. Pelvic health issues in men are often overlooked, yet they can have a significant impact on quality of life, affecting everything from daily comfort to intimate relationships. Our goal is to provide effective, evidence-based solutions to help you regain control, eliminate pain, and restore confidence.
Pelvic Pain
Chronic pelvic pain (penile pain, testicular pain, perineal pain, rectal pain) can be frustrating and debilitating. Using techniques like myofascial release, we target the muscles and connective tissues around the pelvis to relieve pain and tension, addressing issues such as painful sitting, discomfort during physical activity, or tenderness in the groin area.
Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Pelvic floor physical therapy can improve the strength and coordination of the muscles involved in erectile function. By retraining and strengthening these muscles, we can address underlying issues contributing to ED to improve sexual function and confidence.
Urinary Incontinence
Whether you’re experiencing frequent urges to urinate, difficulty controlling your bladder, or leakage during physical activity, our tailored treatment plans can help.
Post-Prostatectomy Rehabilitation
After prostate surgery, many men struggle with incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction. We offer post-prostatectomy rehabilitation to help rebuild pelvic floor strength and function, promoting recovery and improving your quality of life.
Prostatitis
Prostatitis, or inflammation of the prostate gland, often causes pelvic pain and urinary symptoms. We focus on reducing inflammation, improving pelvic muscle function, and alleviating pain through gentle manual therapy and myofascial release techniques.
How Pelvic Floor Therapy Works for Men
Men’s pelvic floor therapy focuses on addressing the muscles, fascia, and tissues of the pelvic region that play a key role in bladder control, sexual health, and pelvic stability. Using a combination of manual therapy techniques, therapeutic exercises, and biofeedback, we help men strengthen and retrain these vital muscles.
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with a thorough assessment of your symptoms, medical history, and any lifestyle factors contributing to your condition. Our expert pelvic floor physical therapists will create a personalized treatment plan, using methods like myofascial release, targeted exercises, and relaxation techniques to reduce symptoms and promote healing.
