Pelvic pain and incontinence are never easy topics to bring up. And it can be especially frustrating if when you do, you are met with blank looks or are pointed toward treatments that are not effective.
There is increasing evidence about the role that pelvic floor physical therapy can play in treating conditions ranging from urge and stress incontinence, to various manifestations of pelvic pain, of painful intercourse and of painful digestive conditions.
H&D's Pelvic Health and Wellness Program aims to provide the highest level of care and compassion to people experiencing these challenges.

I am a 56-yr-old mother or two, and have had pelvic pain for over a year, bouncing from one doctor and standard form of physical therapy to another, with no pain relief. Finally, my urogynecologist referred me to H&D where I have been working with Laurie and Stacey, in sessions involving biofeedback and internal/external massage, with excellent results. I didn't know this sort of therapy existed. I am no longer in acute pain and feel better after every session. I feel rejuvenated. I wish one of my five doctors and three physical therapists had told me twelve months ago about H&D.
