Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question or concern? Check out the most common inquiries below before contacting me to get your questions answered now.

Do you accept insurance?

Not at this time. My business functions as an out-of-network provider and payment is due promptly prior to or at the time of visit. A superbill can be provided upon request for you to submit to your insurance company to put toward your deductible.

How long will it take to meet my treatment goals?

Every client is unique and length of treatment will depend on multiple factors, including but not limited to the nature of the dysfunction, co-morbidities, consistency with home exercise and care plan in between sessions, and motivational factors. Typically, you can expect noticeable results in just 1-2 sessions, wil most client improving dramatically on average in 6-8 sessions.

What does a typical pelvic therapy session look like?

Again this is very individualized to the client and sessions vary by client as well as session to session depending on diagnosis and treatment goals. In general, sessions begin with a review of your care plan activities from the week prior. We will then engage in a combination of activities such as stretching tight muscles, strengthening weak muscles, nervous system regulation activities, and/or manual therapy, following by a discussion on how we can integrate treatment activities and tasks into your daily routine. I am also answering any questions or concerns and fine-tuning the treatment plan as we go. My clients are encouraged to give feedback and input throughout the treatment sessions as we are a team on your wellness journey.

Is an internal exam required?

No, an internal exam is not required. In fact, there are many other ways that I can assess your muscle tone and coordination rather than doing an internal pelvic assessment, and is something we can discuss as we build our client-practitioner relationship. Client consent and comfort is the foundation for all of my work with my clients and can be withdrawn at any time.
