To provide the highest level of care and accommodate all patients, I kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.The first cancellation made after 24 hours will incur a $100 fee. Subsequent cancellations made after 24 hours will be charged the full amount for the visit. Thank you for respecting this policy and helping me provide timely, personalized care to every patient.
While it is not standard practice for me to wear a mask during sessions, I am happy to wear one at your request for any reason.
Yes, if you are located in the state of New York.
Yes, I bring all of the equipment you’ll need. Equipment needs vary depending on the functional level of the patient and can include resistance bands, weights, balls, foam rollers, and balance training equipment.
Please have any pertinent paperwork (ie- doctor/midwife prescription, test results) that are relevant to your condition. Wear something comfortable that you can move around in and that will allow me to observe the problem and surrounding areas. Having a yoga mat available may be useful but is not necessary. Patients being treated for pelvic floor conditions: Please have a towel and 2 pillows available for use during the session.
During your first visit you can expect both an evaluation and initiation of treatment. I will be asking you questions about your condition and your health history and performing a thorough physical exam. Once this is complete, I will begin treatment, including educating you about your condition and ways to minimize and prevent symptoms, as well as initiation of a home program.
An initial pelvic floor physical therapy exam will start with a conversation about your symptoms, medical history, and goals, followed by an assessment of your posture, breathing, hips, core, and movement patterns. In addition, with your consent, I may perform an external and internal vaginal or rectal exam to check pelvic floor muscle strength, tension, and coordination. A thorough explanation of the exam will be provided and you will have the opportunity to ask questions before, during and after the exam. We will proceed only at your own comfort level. The visit typically ends with education, recommendations, and simple exercises or techniques to start treatment.
