What Our Patients Say About Their Journey
My husband and I were married for 5 years and unable to have intercourse, but I never knew why. After numerous awful experiences at doctor’s offices (where many doctors told me I “just needed to relax”), a surgery that didn’t fix the problem, and a year of owning dilators that didn’t get me anywhere, someone finally referred me to Heather for Physical Therapy. I finally had answers and information from someone who knew exactly what I was dealing with!
I started seeing Heather in October 2014. For more than two years, I had been suffering from painful urinary tract infection type symptoms after my bartholins gland surgery which included constant burning and urinary frequency sensation that led to more and more painful intercourse. I had made multiple visits to internist, obgyn and urologist's offices, went through a range of treatment with UTI and bladder frequency medication that included antibiotics, vesicare, estrogen cream, but nothing worked.
Your therapist is a miracle worker! With a retroverted uterus and an anterior pelvic tilt, I thought sex would always be painful for me. She was always so positive about my therapy, even when I was the most skeptical. And she was right! I now have enjoyable, pain-free sex, which was something I never thought would be possible! She always made me feel comfortable and safe to express any concerns I had about treatment. She really helps you understand the connection between mind and body, and how to actively help your treatment along. I can't thank her enough, this was truly a positive experience for me!
