Navigating Prolapse

Symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse can interfere with your ability to exercise, care for your loved ones, do your job, and be intimate with your partner. Pressure, heaviness, bulging, that “falling out” feeling—all of it can make your body feel foreign and unreliable. You might live in fear of making your problem worse, avoiding the things you love to do.

It doesn’t have to be that way.

At Rhea PT, we understand that your prolapse is complex, and we take the time to figure out all of the contributing factors to your symptoms. We consider…

  • how you transfer load and impact through your body

  • how you manage pressure changes in your body

  • how your pelvic floor muscles respond to load

  • the tension, strength, and coordination of your pelvic floor and core

  • the effect of hormone changes on your body that may be contributing to your symptoms, such as lactation and perimenopause

We address all of those factors with targeted, personalized exercises and strategies to improve your symptoms and relieve your fears. You’ll be able to get back to what you love, empowered with the tools to keep you feeling good as you move and confident in your body’s resilience.

Your prolapse shouldn’t hold you back.

“Savannah was wonderful to work with…During each session, she not only made sure I understood every exercise and which muscles I was targeting, but also tailored my home exercises so they fit realistically into my schedule.”—Jacqui
