Palmer Physical Therapy for Women

General Practitioners

Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Fibromyalgia

Constipation
Urinary Incontinence
Palmer Physical Therapy for Women successfully assists women in resolving post-partum issues such as pain, weakness, diastasis recti, urinary incontinence, bowel problems, painful intercourse or prolapse.

Gynecologists

Endometriosis
Sometimes, these symptoms can be related to endometriosis, ovarian cysts, yeast infections or other medical problems, but in some instances, the woman has undergone numerous diagnostic procedures including laparoscopy, and the source of the pain remains unknown. This is where a relatively new specialty within physical therapy can help with pain relief and return a woman to a more normal level of functioning, whether thatâ€™s normal bowel and bladder function or pain-free sexual intercourse.
Pelvic Pain
The important thing to remember is that chronic pelvic pain and its variety of symptoms can be effectively treated with physical therapy. Recent studies show that a manual physical therapist that specializes in pelvic floor dysfunction can relieve discomfort, and improve muscle and bowel and bladder function. Women donâ€™t have to live with pain nor is it â€œall in your headâ€ when you experience pain with sexual intercourse. There are physical reasons for your pain! If you are experiencing symptoms of chronic pelvic pain, I encourage you to consult with a womenâ€™s health physical therapist to evaluate your needs and move towards recovery.
Pregnancy
Labor and Delivery
Many women experience low back pain during pregnancy and after labor and delivery. Low back pain increases as a new mom begins to care for her baby from stress placed on the back through repetitive bending to lift the infant, frequent diaper changes and transporting the baby and equipment in and out of a vehicle. Breastfeeding can also cause neck and low back pain from hunching over the infant during feedings. If the pain is not addressed, women will continue to suffer from chronic pain episodes later in life.

Internists

Internal Medicine
Over 20 million people suffer with urinary incontinence. The majority of these are women and most of these women donâ€™t even mention it to a health care provider for seven years. A recent study in the Annuals of Internal Medicine (May 2006) stated that a three question test could help clinicians diagnose two most common types of urinary incontinence.Â
Interstitial Cystitis
Many women suffer in silence or are afraid or embarrassed to talk about such a personal issue â€“ chronic pelvic pain, including painful intercourse and interstitial cystitis. Other women visit many healthcare providers seeking answers about the source of their pain, and an estimated 15 percent of women aged 18-50 experience chronic pelvic pain, which can vary in intensity and increase in severity during menstruation.

Plan to arrive about 10 minutes early, and bring your complete paperwork. Your paperwork can be downloaded from Patient Forms. You should also bring your insurance information (i.e., insurance card, workmanâ€™s compensation claim information or auto insurance) and your driverâ€™s license or valid ID. Recent, related test results, such as MRI or X-ray reports, may be helpful and can be brought to your first appointment.

Chemotherapy

Surgeons

Joint Replacement
Physical therapy for women who have undergone joint replacement surgery involves a functional progression of exercises and activities that Palmer Physical Therapy for Women individualizes to each of its patients.
Hysterectomy
Bev experienced low back pain and pain in her lower abdomen and groin for more than two years. Like Saraâ€™s story, a gynecological cause was believed to be the source of her pain, and she underwent a hysterectomy. In addition to her other symptoms, she began to experience vaginal pain following the procedure. She didnâ€™t understand how physical therapy could help, but thought she should explore every possible option. Her symptoms were related to nerve irritation in the spine, and she did very well with physical therapy.
Laparoscopy
Sometimes these symptoms can be related to endometriosis, ovarian cysts, or other medical problems. Symptoms may be as a result of a yeast infection, but this diagnosis can be inaccurate. In other instances, the woman has undergone numerous diagnostic procedures including laparoscopy, and the source of the pain remains unknown. Thatâ€™s where a relatively new area of physical therapy can help. A physical therapist specially trained in womenâ€™s health can assist with pain relief and return a woman to a more normal level of functioning, whether it be normal bowel and bladder function or pain-free sexual intercourse.
