Our Proven 5-Phase Recovery Program
Listen
Whether you’re at your first consultation or last appointment, our physical therapists begin by listening to you. As the patient, you’re at the center of your care. Many of our patients say they haven’t felt heard by medical providers until they come to us. With a 90-minute consultation and 60-minute appointments, there’s always time to listen to you. You might share:
- Symptoms and sources of pain
- Personal concerns and questions
- Medical history and recent doctors visits
- Lifestyle changes
- Practical limitations in daily life
- Successes and struggles
- Your short- and long-term goals for physical therapy – from doing the dishes to having sex to competing in an Ironman Triathlon
Assess and identify
After hearing what’s been happening with you and your body, our physical therapists assess how your bones, muscles, ligaments, nerves, and fascia are working together. Assessments can be simple, like watching you walk across the room; hands-on, like testing hip flexor mobility; or specialized, like a gentle internal pelvic exam.
These individualized physical exams help our physical therapists identify the root cause of your symptoms or target areas for work. Often, the symptoms or pain you feel are a sign of an issue somewhere else in the body. Our job is to find the root cause so we can address it during physical therapy sessions and in your home routine.
Communicate
We share what we find with you during your appointment, explaining what we’re doing and what we find along the way. We believe you are a key decision-maker in your healing, so it’s vital that you have the information you need about your symptoms, root cause, and treatment. We collaborate with you to develop your goals and treatment plan.
Our communication doesn’t end with you. We also connect with other providers, caretakers, and professionals to assist in your healing journey. Physical therapy is only one piece of a well-rounded approach to holistic wellness, so collaborating with the rest of your care team is essential for us. You and your therapist continue to strategize on how to optimize your success between our team and other providers in the community.
Relieve
At every appointment, you and your physical therapist work to alleviate your symptoms. Treatments target both your symptoms and their source, so you feel better. Our physical therapists are trained in a wide variety of cutting-edge modalities for treatments, and we’re always learning more. Which ones your physical therapist uses depends on your symptoms, the root cause, and your goals. Our office includes top-of-the-line Balanced Body Pilates equipment to aid your recovery. You can visit the What We Treat page to see our most-used treatment techniques.
We give you tools to manage your own symptoms, as well as a tailored-to-you home program to continue the work between appointments. We’re working to get you back to the activities that were causing your symptoms before. As you feel better, we work to lock in good body mechanics and your own confidence in your body and movement.
Strengthen and resolve
Relieving your symptoms isn’t the same as resolving the root cause of those issues. Relief is temporary, unless you address the source of your issue. For example, your low back pain might be due to weak pelvic floor muscles — but you might need to build mobility in your hip flexors to correct your posture, which might be the source of your issues.
In this final step, we lock in the resolution of your symptoms by taking care of their root cause. We focus on strength, mobility, and flexibility to create the long-term resolution of your symptoms. These can help you avoid recurring pain and keep your body feeling and performing well for years to come. We make sure you leave Treasure Valley Pelvic Health feeling confident and empowered, with the strategies to maintain your gains and successes.

When To See a Pelvic Physical Therapist
You’re Having Pelvic Floor Issues
If you’re experiencing discomfort, pain or other issues related to your pelvic region, you’re not alone. Pelvic floor dysfunction is a common condition that affects men, women, and children. Bladder and bowel issues are common, but you don’t need to live with them.
You’re Having Bladder or Bowel Issues
Medication isn’t the only way to deal with bladder or bowel problems. Incontinence, urinary urgency, constipation, and hemorrhoids can all be treated and improved with pelvic floor physical therapy.
You Have Prolapse
Weakened or damaged pelvic floor muscles and connective tissues can cause prolapse — when the bladder, uterus, or rectum gets displaced from its normal position. Our holistic approach focuses on addressing the underlying causes of prolapse and improving pelvic floor function.
You Have Back Pain or Sciatica
Other providers often overlook the pelvic floor’s role as a key driver in back pain and sciatica. These issues are your body telling you there’s a deeper problem. The root cause is often core weakness, poor muscle coordination, or poor joint movement, which can be corrected with physical therapy.
You’re Having Abdominal or Pelvic Surgery
Connecting with a pelvic floor physical therapist ahead of an operation means you can develop muscle memory in your core muscles to help with recovery, discuss potential challenges around healing, pain management, and constipation, and make a plan for post-operative care. Post-operative care plays a vital role in ensuring a successful recovery after surgery by helping to reduce the risk of complications, promote healing, and maximize the effectiveness of your procedure.
You’re Preparing for a Birth
Whether you’re a first-time parent or have gone through childbirth before, it’s essential to prioritize your physical health before and during pregnancy to feel comfortable and strong. Pelvic floor therapy during a pregnancy can mitigate common yet nagging symptoms, such as increased back pain, waddling, and foot pain, as well as minimize the severity of a diastasis…
You’re in the Postpartum Recovery Period
As a new parent, your body has gone through significant changes while growing and birthing your new baby. Our postpartum recovery physical therapy focuses on restoring your body’s strength and function to get you back to your favorite activities
You Have Diastasis Recti — Even Years After Giving Birth
Every person develops diastasis recti — separation of the abdominal wall — during pregnancy. If not properly addressed, you may have issues like chronic low back pain, hip pain, poor posture, prolapse, or urinary incontinence. We can help you improve your core strength and function to resolve any symptoms.…
You’re Moving Towards Menopause
We create a customized plan to help you improve your bladder control, navigate changes to intercourse, and minimize aches and pains to keep menopause from slowing you down.
You’re Getting Gender-Confirming Care
The journey of gender confirmation is complex — and deeply personal. Our physical therapists focus on pelvic health, organ function, and orthopedics to offer essential support to transgender people. Our team can assist in pre-surgical care to optimize your outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens during treatment?
Visits start with your provider getting a full picture of your medical history from your. Our physical therapists then use a physical exam to assess the root cause of your symptoms. This can include an internal physical exam – something our physical therapists are specially trained to conduct. Internal exams are always done with respect and to your comfort level, with open communication throughout the process. Our physical therapists don’t use a speculum, just one gloved finger to get an idea of what’s happening in each layer of the pelvic floor muscles.
With your medical history and physical exam complete, you and your physical therapist coordinate on a personalized plan of care. It’s customized to the root cause of your symptoms, your body, and your goals. We also connect and collaborate with other providers, caretakers, and professionals as needed to assist in your healing journeys.
The pelvic floor muscles don’t work in insolation, so we take a holistic, full-body approach to your treatment plan. As much as you’d like, we can incorporate lifestyle factors into your care. We pull from a variety of treatment techniques to build our patient care plans: neural manipulation, visceral manipulation, manual therapy, Pilates movements, and dry needling, to name a few.
When should I start pelvic floor physical therapy? Is now too late?
It’s never too late to start pelvic physical therapy – the sooner, the better. If you’re planning a pregnancy, getting surgery, or experiencing symptoms that might indicate a pelvic health issue, call 208-629-1030 or fill out our contact form to get scheduled.
We’ve worked with hundreds of people throughout the birth process. Therapists can help you prepare your body during preconception, address symptoms every trimester of pregnancy, and build strength during the postpartum period. If you have weakness in your core or pelvic floor, even years after giving birth, we can help you to strengthen and rebuild your body safely.
Pelvic physical therapy is an important – though often forgotten – part of post-operative care. If you’re getting orthopedic surgery, like a hip replacement, we can help with mobility, flexibility, strength, and scar tissue mobilization. If you’re getting surgery that affects your digestive or reproductive organs, we can help with organ motility through visceral manipulation and scar tissue mobilization. Book an appointment as soon as you have your surgery date.
