“I never heard of a pelvic floor therapist until I started having some major issues and my doctor recommended Marsh. I’m am so thankful for her and all that she has taught ne through the process of strengthening my pelvic floor muscles. She was able to make me feel comfortable and takes her time listening and talking with you. I used both the Kegel weights and transitioned to the KGOAL. It has taken me several months of hard work but it is paying off and now I am on a maintenance program and hope to return to running soon!” RH
“I had a hysterectomy and my doctor recommended pelvic floor therapy for post surgical urinary incontinence which helped tremendously including my back pain.” LC
” I had a prostatectomy a year ago and was using Depends because everytime I stood I would have leakage. I wish my doctor told me that pelvic health therapy was a option sooner. Three months after therapy I stopped using Depends. I still have some occasional leakage with coughing or sneezing but nothing like it was before.” WM
