Please reach the therapist at amanda@wavesofwellnesshealth.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Video: 1st Pelvic Floor PT Visit
See the IG reel below to get an idea of how a pelvic floor PT assessment can go. And of course every case and client are different. Internal exams are never required and only completed with complete consent at each visit.
What to Expect at Your Initial Assessment
During your initial assessment, I take a head-to-toe approach because your pelvic floor never works alone. We’ll look at your overall mobility, posture, strength, breathing patterns, hips, core, and how everything moves.
If it's indicated, appropriate, and only with complete consent, we’ll include an internal pelvic floor exam to understand how the muscles are coordinating, relaxing, and supporting you.
Expect gentle, guided movement tests, hands-on assessment, and clear explanations the entire time.
Everything is consent-based, nothing is rushed, and you’ll always know what’s coming next.
By the end, you’ll better understand how your body is working as a whole, what’s driving your symptoms, and exactly how we’ll start improving things. All from the comfort of your home. We will discuss your plan at that time, to best reach your goals.
Let's talk about the stuff no one talks about!
If you're wondering what the next steps are, I've got you.
