Prolapse, often felt as heaviness or pressure, can be managed conservatively and effectively, so you stay active with confidence. We offer pelvic floor retraining and professional pessary fitting for support without surgery.
Signs of prolapse
A heavy or dragging feeling in the pelvis, often worse at the end of the day

Pessary fitting
A pessary is a small, removable support device. After determining if you're a candidate, we can fit and manage your pessary right in the office as part of your care.
Before and after surgery
If a prolapse repair or hysterectomy is planned, pre-op pelvic floor physical therapy makes recovery faster and easier. Call us as soon as the date is set.
Common questions
Will it get worse if I exercise?
Prolapse may get worse with poor exercise technique. Even simple habits like getting out of bed, getting up from the floor and carrying groceries can worsen prolapse with poor form and technique.
Do I need a referral?
No. Georgia allows direct access to physical therapy. After 3 weeks or 8 sessions, whichever comes first, you'll need a referral. We help with this process.
