Don’t Give Up—The Solution You’ve Been Searching for Might Be Closer Than You Think

By a pelvic floor therapist at Empower Your Pelvis, in Kansas City (Overland Park, Kansas and Lees Summit, Missouri).

Are you one of the many who have visited multiple doctors, scoured the internet for answers, and been told that your symptoms are "just normal"? If you’re dealing with pelvic pain or struggling with bowel or bladder control, this blog is for you. At Empower Your Pelvis, we want to share what makes your first visit to our pelvic floor physical therapy different from your past experiences.

We Listen. We Validate. We Educate.

Pelvic pain is a complex issue, often requiring a team of healthcare providers to reach your goals. But one thing you can count on from our physical therapists is a compassionate and attentive ear. Many of our patients start noticing improvements simply from the validation that their pain is real—not “all in their head.” If a healthcare provider has ever told you that “sometimes people just have pain,” why not explore pelvic floor physical therapy? It's a non-invasive approach, free from medication, and could equip you with the knowledge to better manage your bowel and bladder health.

Avoid Surgery, Regain Confidence

We frequently see patients who are thrilled when they realize that they can meet their goals without surgery. There’s a common misconception that urinary leakage inevitably leads to surgery or lifelong dependence on adult diapers. Our mission as physical therapists is to empower you with a clear understanding of your condition and to provide you with alternative treatment options.

Nervous About Your First Visit? We Understand

It’s completely normal to feel anxious about your first visit to a pelvic floor physical therapist—after all, you might be seeking help for issues like pain during sex or loss of bladder control. While physical therapists are known for helping people walk again or return to sports, we’ve taken additional specialized training to assist those with pelvic floor dysfunction.

So, if a friend, family member, or another healthcare provider tells you that your pain or urinary leakage is just a part of getting older, remember that there’s help available. At Empower Your Pelvis, we understand what you’re going through, and we’re here to support you.

Let me leave you with one of my favorite quotes: "Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end."
