Beyond Basics Physical Therapy

Beyond Basics Physical Therapy Our highly specialized experts provide 1:1 individualized care to patients. Not Medical Advice.

Individualized + Integrated care for every body:

* pelvic pain + dysfunction
* orthopedic conditions
* post-surgical rehab
* sexual pain + dysfunction
* pregnancy + postpartum support
* pediatric care
* lymphedema
* bowel + bladder dysfunction

Our individualized approach allows us to provide full attention to your needs as a whole. Our experts will spend the time pinpointing the root of your issue and treat it comprehensively. This type of care means our patients start feeling better sooner, and in fewer sessions than they would if treated at a traditional PT facility.

“Waiting until it hurts” might feel like the norm, but when it comes to pelvic health, it often means a longer road back.

Pain is usually the last sign your body gives after months (or years) of quiet dysfunction. That’s why proactive pelvic floor PT is so powerful — it helps you heal before your body hits crisis mode ✨ Early care = faster recovery, stronger results, and more freedom to move without fear.

💬 Have you ever waited until symptoms got too intense before seeking help?

Looking for safe ways to stay active during pregnancy? 🤰 Movement can support delivery, aid postpartum recovery, and help you feel better day to day.

NOTE: If you’re not someone who’s generally active, start with 8–10 reps a day to build consistency.

Postpartum symptoms like leaking, pain, or pressure aren’t the price you have to pay for giving birth. They’re signs your body needs support and pelvic floor physical therapy can help 💪

Because birth changes your body… but it shouldn’t break it.

Your breath is one of the simplest ways to calm your nervous system 🌬️✨

Two techniques we teach:
1️⃣ 360 Breathing — expand your rib cage in all directions: belly, sides, and back.
2️⃣ Triangle Breath — inhale, hold, exhale for 3–5 seconds each.

These practices help ease stress, support pelvic health, and reconnect you to your body.

Most people think men’s pelvic floor muscles only matter for bladder control. But these muscles actually influence your nervous system, blood flow, and even how your core stabilizes during intimacy.

A strong + balanced pelvic floor = more confidence in and out of the bedroom.

Drop a ⚡ if no one ever told you men should train their pelvic floor too.

📝 Birth control is an amazing tool for taking charge of your body. But it’s not always side-effect free.

Some lesser-known things people experience on hormonal BC:
✨ migraines or headaches
✨ increased risk of blood clots
✨ weight changes
✨ more yeast infections
✨ lower libido
✨ shifts in blood pressure
✨ acne (for some, better — for others, worse)

Everyone’s body is different, and reacts differently. That’s why it’s so important to be informed, track your symptoms, and have honest convos with your provider. Your health, your body, your choice 💛
