Frequently Asked Questions

Pelvic PT explaining pelvic floor muscles to patient

Below are some of the most common questions that we get. If you have other questions, please reach out at 508-418-3447.

What is Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy?

Pelvic floor physical therapy focuses on the muscles, ligaments, and tissues that support your bladder, uterus, rectum, and core. These muscles play a big role in pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum recovery. Physical therapy helps address pain, leakage, core weakness, and other pelvic health concerns through gentle, evidence-based care.

When Should I Start Pelvic PT Postpartum?

You can begin whenever you feel ready! Many patients start around 6 weeks postpartum, after seeing their healthcare provider and being cleared for regular activities. However, we’re also here for immediate postpartum support—helping with comfort, positioning, posture, and breathing strategies right from the start.

Where Are You Located?

We offer pelvic floor physical therapy out of our office space in Sudbury, MA. We also provide mobile physical therapy for those looking for the convenience of PT at home. We primarily work in and around the MetroWest area serving the following towns; Sudbury, Wayland, Concord, Acton, Framingham, Natick, Marlborough, Weston, Hudson and Wellesley.

What to Expect at the First Appointment?

The first appointment will be held in a quiet, private treatment room where you can share your history, symptoms and goals with your physical therapist. Next, your physical therapist will perform a thorough assessment making sure to address all of your concerns. You will leave your first appointment with a detailed plan of how we are going to help you meet your goals as well as some exercises to get started with.

How Frequent Are Appointments?

This varies based on your symptoms, the findings from the first appointment and your goals. Most people will benefit from appointments 1-2 times per week. At the end of your first appointment, we will discuss how often visits are recommended and create a personalized plan with you to help you meet your goals.

Will I Always See the Same Physical Therapist?

Yes. You will always work one-on-one with the same physical therapist at every session. You will never be switched to another therapist, or work with an aide or a student during your treatment.

What Are Your Hours?

We offer appointments starting as early as 7:30 in the morning. We also offer evening appointments one day per week, with our last scheduled appointment time at 6:00.

What if I Do Not Have Childcare?

We know how hard coordinating appointments can be when you are home with children. You are always welcome to bring your baby with you to your appointment and we also offer mobile visits, coming to your home, if that is better for you. Please let us know when you call if you would like your appointment to be scheduled in your home.
