Bowel Health & Digestive Support

Services

This category includes conditions that impact the normal process of digestion, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of waste, significantly affecting your daily life and preventing you from enjoying the little things. At Pelvic Reset Therapy, we focus on improving bowel regularity, reducing discomfort, enhancing bowel control, and improving overall quality of life.

The Pelvic Reset Therapy Approach

We provide comprehensive, effective, and non-invasive treatment plans that help manage a range of bowel & digestive health conditions for both adults and children. We aim at strengthening and relaxing the muscles involved in bowel and digestive function through specialized therapies, education, and ongoing support.

Conditions We Treat

Fecal Incontinence: Involuntary fecal leakage can be caused by urge incontinence (unable to hold bowel movements) or passive incontinence (bowel movement without realizing it), which can be frustrating and embarrassing. We offer tailored therapies, including pelvic floor exercises, bowel training, and lifestyle changes to improve bowel movements, so you can feel confident again.

Constipation & Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Unable to relax and coordinate your pelvic floor muscles to pass stool can make you feel uncomfortable or even cause pain. We provide pelvic floor exercises, relaxation techniques, and other treatments tailored to your needs

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): A constant change in bowel movements (such as diarrhea or constipation), discomfort, and abdominal pain, as in IBS, can be quite challenging to manage. It can be stressful trying to go about your daily routine. Some of our care plans include muscle coordination, biofeedback, and relaxation techniques.

Pediatric Bowel Dysfunction (Constipation, Encopresis): Having trouble with bowel movements among kids can be because it is hard and dry to pass or involuntary passing of stool, which can be embarrassing for the kids and frustrating for parents. We work with kids to improve muscle control, sensation, and bowel habits through are comprehensive treatments.
