Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about menopause physical therapy in Austin
-
No! Texas is a direct-access state, which means you can see a physical therapist without a doctor's referral. You can schedule directly with us. If you have insurance, we recommend checking with your provider about coverage requirements.
-
Your first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation that lasts about an hour. We'll discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and goals. Your PT will perform a physical assessment which may include an internal pelvic floor exam (always with your consent). You'll leave with a personalized treatment plan and exercises to get started.
-
We understand this type of therapy can feel vulnerable. Our team creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and comfortable. We always explain what we're doing, ask for your consent before any exam, and move at your pace. Many patients tell us they wish they'd come sooner once they experience how supportive and empowering the process is.
-
Treatment length varies based on your symptoms and goals. Some patients see significant improvement in 4-6 sessions, while others benefit from ongoing care over several months. We'll create a realistic timeline during your evaluation and adjust as you progress.
-
Absolutely. Research shows that pelvic floor PT is highly effective for treating urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, painful sex, and core weakness associated with menopause. Our evidence-based approach addresses the root causes of your symptoms—not just the symptoms themselves.
