Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy in Dunwoody, GA
Restore Confidence. Reclaim Control. Live Without Limits.
Let’s be honest—pelvic health isn’t something most people feel comfortable talking about. But your pelvic floor plays a vital role in how your body functions every day, from movement and stability to confidence and comfort. When something feels “off,” it can quietly affect every part of your life.
At Functionize Health in Dunwoody, we create a safe, compassionate space for you to understand what’s really happening in your body—and more importantly, how to restore balance and strength.
Whether you’re navigating changes after childbirth, noticing shifts during menopause, or simply want to move with more ease, our team of pelvic health experts is here to help you reconnect with your body and feel like yourself again.
Who Benefits from Pelvic Floor PT?
Pelvic floor therapy is for anyone who feels like their body isn’t working the way it used to. Some of the most common reasons people seek care include:
-
Incontinence – leaking during workouts, laughter, or daily activity
-
Pelvic organ prolapse – a sensation of heaviness, bulging, or pressure
-
Pain or spasms in the pelvic region
-
Core weakness after pregnancy, surgery, or menopause
-
Discomfort during intimacy
It doesn’t matter if you’re newly postpartum, navigating hormonal changes, or simply tired of planning life around the nearest bathroom—pelvic PT can help you feel like you again.
What Exactly Is the Pelvic Floor?
Think of your pelvic floor as the foundation of your core. It’s a group of muscles that support your bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs, while also helping with posture, stability, and even breathing.
​
When this system isn’t firing properly—whether too weak, too tight, or just uncoordinated—you may experience incontinence, pelvic pain, or prolapse. The good news? With the right guidance, your pelvic floor can be retrained and restored.
Common Pelvic Health Concerns We Treat
Incontinence (Urinary and Fecal)
Incontinence isn’t something you should have to “just deal with.” It happens when the muscles that support the bladder, urethra, or rectum aren’t functioning the way they should. For some, this shows up as urinary incontinence—leaking with coughing, laughing, or a sudden urge to go. For others, it may be fecal incontinence, where the muscles that control bowel movements are weakened or uncoordinated. Both can feel isolating, but they’re far more common than most people realize. Pelvic floor therapy restores balance and coordination in these muscle groups, helping you retrain control, strengthen support, and rebuild confidence in daily life.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse
When the pelvic floor muscles and connective tissues lose strength or tension, organs such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum can begin to shift downward into the vaginal canal. This often causes a feeling of heaviness, bulging, or pressure—especially after childbirth, during menopause, or with years of high-impact exercise. With guided strengthening, breathing techniques, and movement education, pelvic floor PT can reduce pressure, improve support, and help you safely stay active without worsening symptoms.
Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain is complex and often misunderstood. It may come from overactive pelvic floor muscles, scar tissue, postural imbalances, or even referred pain from the hips or lower back. That’s why an individualized assessment is so important—no two people’s pain looks exactly the same, and a one-size-fits-all approach rarely works. At Functionize, our team takes the time to uncover your true root cause and build a plan that fits your needs. With gentle manual therapy, relaxation techniques, and retraining exercises, we work to reduce tension, restore blood flow, and help the pelvic floor work with the rest of your body instead of against it.
What to Expect at Functionize
We know these topics can feel sensitive. That’s why we create a safe, private space where you’ll work one-on-one with a specially trained pelvic health physical therapist.
No two treatment plans look the same, but sessions may include:
​
✔ Gentle hands-on techniques to release tension and restore balance
✔ Targeted pelvic floor and core strengthening
✔ Breathwork and posture training to support your whole body
✔ Strategies for lifting, exercising, and moving with confidence
✔ Lifestyle coaching to reduce triggers and prevent setbacks
Our goal isn’t just to “fix a problem.” It’s to help you understand your body, build resilience, and carry those changes into every part of your life.
Care That Meets You Where You Are
We believe movement is medicine. And when movement feels hard, scary, or limited, it can ripple into every part of your life. That’s why our approach is holistic, compassionate, and focused on you—your goals, your comfort, your story.
