Effective help for incontinence & pelvic pain.

Request Physical Therapy - Why USIn the United States alone, there are over 17 million women who suffer from urinary incontinence. In plain language, they lose urine even when they don’t want or expect to – while lifting objects, coughing, sneezing or even laughing. 

And this embarrassing problem doesn’t only affect older women. Statistics show that almost one in four women between the 18 and 44 experience urinary incontinence, or about the same rate as with women over 60. Perhaps most alarming of all is that most women live with this condition for about nine years before they seek medical help.

If you or someone you care about suffers from this condition, help is just a phone call away – at ReQuest Physical Therapy. Our women’s health and wellness programs focus on a number of conditions that are unique to women. In addition to successfully treating urinary incontinence, we can help you overcome:
  • Pelvic pain
  • Pelvic floor weakness
  • Pregnancy-related back pain
  • Sciatica
  • Post-mastectomy problems
  • Osteoporosis


We use a variety of techniques to treat and resolve those conditions, including:

  • Manual therapy
  • Biofeedback
  • Behavior modification
  • Massage therapy
  • Ultrasound
  • Electrical stimulation
  • Special exercise (e.g. Kegels) Education
  • Nutrition/diet counseling

If you suffer from pelvic pain, you are not alone. This a common condition among women of all ages. And chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the most common medical problems among women. Twenty-five percent of women with CPP may spend two to three days in bed each month. More than half must limit their daily activities one or more days a month and suffer from some degree of depression, while over 90 percent suffer from painful intercourse.

Discover the difference our comprehensive, compassionate, patient-centered treatment and caring can make in your life. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call us today.
