Pelvic Floor Health

At Balance Medical, we understand that pelvic floor health is essential to overall well-being and daily comfort. Our expert team is committed to diagnosing and treating a range of pelvic floor concerns with compassionate, patient-focused care.

What is Pelvic Floor Health?

Pelvic floor health refers to the strength and functionality of the muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues that support the bladder, uterus, and rectum. When these structures weaken or become dysfunctional, individuals may experience discomfort, incontinence, pain, or other concerns. Addressing pelvic floor health issues early can help restore function and improve quality of life.

Frequent Urination

Frequent urination can interfere with daily activities and disrupt sleep. While it may be caused by factors such as overactive bladder, urinary tract infections (UTIs), pregnancy, or hormonal changes, persistent symptoms should be evaluated by a medical professional. Our team conducts thorough assessments to identify the underlying cause and offers treatments ranging from behavioral modifications to medication or specialized therapies.

Incontinence

Urinary incontinence, or the involuntary loss of bladder control, can significantly impact confidence and daily life. This condition may be due to weakened pelvic floor muscles, childbirth, menopause, or neurological disorders. Our specialists provide and coordinate a range of treatment options, including pelvic floor therapy, medication, and minimally invasive procedures, to help restore bladder control and improve your overall comfort.

Painful Urination

Experiencing pain or discomfort while urinating, known as dysuria, may indicate an underlying issue such as an infection, interstitial cystitis, bladder inflammation, or pelvic floor dysfunction. Our providers utilize advanced diagnostic tools to determine the cause of painful urination and create a personalized treatment plan to alleviate discomfort and prevent recurrence.
