At Pelvic Path Physical Therapy, we believe every woman deserves expert care and guidance throughout the many transitions of her life. From the onset of menstruation to the postpartum period, and well into post-menopause, your pelvic health plays a powerful role in your overall well-being. Pelvic health physical therapy in Marin County isn’t just for women experiencing pain or dysfunction — it’s for anyone who wants to feel strong, supported, and informed in their body.
Here’s how we help women thrive at each life stage:
🌱 Menarche & Adolescence: Building a Foundation
The teenage years are a critical time to establish healthy body awareness and normalize conversations around menstruation, pelvic pain, and bathroom habits. At this stage, pelvic PT can help with:
- Painful periods or cramping
- Constipation or bowel issues
- Pelvic pain with sports or movement
- Education around pelvic anatomy and self-care
We aim to empower young women with knowledge — helping them understand that discomfort is common, but not normal — and that early intervention can make a lifelong difference.
🤰 Fertility, Pregnancy & Postpartum: Preparing & Recovering with Confidence
Pregnancy is one of the most dynamic times in a woman’s life — physically, emotionally, and hormonally. Our job is to help your body adapt, prepare, and recover through:
- Managing pelvic girdle pain, pubic symphysis dysfunction, or sciatica
- Preparing for labor and birth with body mechanics and breathing strategies
- Supporting pelvic floor coordination and strength
- Postpartum recovery for core healing, diastasis recti, and leakage
- Creating a return-to-exercise plan that’s safe and personalized
We believe you shouldn’t have to “just live with” pain or dysfunction after birth. Your body is resilient — and with the right support, recovery is absolutely possible.
🌸 Perimenopause & Menopause: Supporting the Second Spring
Hormonal shifts in midlife often bring new changes in pelvic and sexual health, including:
- Leaking with coughing, sneezing, or exercise
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- Vaginal dryness or pain with intimacy
- Changes in bowel or bladder habits
- A sense of core instability or weakness
Pelvic PT during this phase is about restoring strength, addressing symptoms, and helping women feel confident and vibrant in their bodies — not resigned to aging uncomfortably.
💬 Whole-Body, Personalized Care
At Pelvic Path, we treat the whole person, not just the pelvic floor. We look at how your breathing, posture, movement patterns, nervous system, and daily habits all work together. Every session is one-on-one and tailored to your unique goals — whether that’s lifting your grandkids, returning to running, or simply not worrying about leaking on a walk.
We believe pelvic health is fundamental health — and that every woman deserves access to compassionate, specialized care.
