Begin with what affects your day
You can describe the difficulty in your own words: urgency, leakage, pelvic discomfort, or planning daily activities around bathroom needs. The office can help clarify whether the current service fits your concern.
Mention relevant neurological conditions, medical care, or surgery when arranging an evaluation. Different causes and symptoms may require different clinicians or assessments.
Understand the evaluation before you begin
Your therapist discusses your history, goals, comfort, and the recommended assessment. Ask what the visit will involve and which options are appropriate for you.
You can ask questions, discuss your preferences, or pause an examination. Your understanding and consent are part of planning care.
Work toward practical goals
A plan may involve education, coordination of relevant muscles, daily routines, or changes to activities, based on the findings. There is no single exercise that fits every pelvic-floor concern.
For bowel symptoms, pregnancy or postpartum concerns, or a specific examination or technique, call first to confirm the appropriate clinician and current offering.
A discreet first conversation
Call (443) 360-5527 to discuss the service, scheduling, and referral requirements. Our office can explain what information is useful before your visit.
Common questions
Do I need to know which pelvic muscles are involved?
No. Describe what has changed and how it affects your routine. Your evaluation helps clarify the rehabilitation needs and whether other assessment is appropriate.
Can I ask what an examination involves before scheduling?
Yes. Call with your questions about the visit and clinician. You should understand the proposed assessment and have an opportunity to discuss comfort and preferences.
