What to Expect at Your First Pelvic Health Appointment: Our Most Anticipated Question!
Welcome to your first pelvic health appointment! We know it can be a vulnerable topic or anticipation filled with anxiety, but rest assured, we are here to make your experience as comfortable and positive as possible. Here's what you can expect during your visit, from the moment you walk through our doors and all the steps of your evaluation.
A Warm Welcome
Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by our friendly staff, offered a beverage, we will make sure any initial paperwork is completed, and answer any questions you may have. Once you're all set, Sam will come to meet you and show you back to the treatment room.
A Tour of Our Space
Before we dive into the evaluation, you'll get a chance to check out our fantastic gym space. This is where most of the fun and progress will happen once we get to the root cause and you feeling better. We believe in making your journey to wellness enjoyable and engaging... and doing so in a way that looks like your "normal life"!
The Evaluation
Your appointment will start with a comprehensive sit-down with Sam. We'll dive deep into any concerns you have, working to get to the root cause of any issues. Together, we'll address your specific problems, but most importantly, we'll discuss your goals. Understanding what success looks like to you helps us tailor your treatment to meet your needs.
We'll assess your movement patterns, strength, and range of motion. This helps us get a complete picture of your physical health and how it relates to your pelvic floor.
The Internal Examination
If an internal examination is warranted and you're comfortable, Sam will explain each step of the process. Using a lubricated, gloved finger, we'll assess your pelvic floor strength and coordination. This examination is gentle and considerate, designed to gather essential information without the use of stirrups or a speculum, unlike an OB/GYN exam.
Don't be afraid to ask questions or express any anxiety around this - we want you to be happy and comfortable, you can still have successful treatment without one, it is just another piece of info/feedback for us!
Discussing the Findings
After the evaluation, we'll sit down and discuss our findings with you. This is a collaborative conversation where we outline what we've discovered and explain the best options for your treatment moving forward. We want you to feel empowered and informed about your health and the next steps.
Moving Forward
Our goal is to make sure you leave your first appointment feeling hopeful and confident about your treatment plan. We're excited to work with you on this journey to better health, helping you achieve your goals and feel your best.
Thank you for choosing us for your pelvic health needs - We can't wait to get started and support you every step of the way!
