Self Care at Home
If you are not ready for an in-office visit, you can still connect with us!
We have always emphasized a home program for our patients, and with great success. Femina PT founder Heather Jeffcoat even wrote a book that emphasizes self care.
While it is true that hands-on therapy has been proven to benefit those with chronic pain, pelvic pain, incontinence, and more, it is also true that every successful treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis. Our trained therapists will listen to your story, observe your movements, and make the appropriate recommendations for your particular situation.
In short, a one-on-one telehealth or coaching session is a simple, effective, and private option. Click here for more info.
Instruction in The IRAS Method is currently only available for individual instruction to patients (Qualified health care practitioners can be instructed in a group or individual setting, in your office or ours). This groundbreaking method was first introduced by Femina Physical Therapy founder, Dr. Heather Jeffcoat, to address hypertonic and overactive pelvic floor muscles. Using research-proven techniques, the IRAS Method has transformed womens' daily lives and improved their sexual function through this step-by-step program, helping women reach their goals in as little as 2 weeks*.
TheIRAS Method is a unique combination of physical therapy, massage, lymphatic drainage and neuromuscular techniques optimized to provide the quickest recovery of pelvic floor muscle spasm, hypertonicity and/or muscle overactivity. It is a proven system to help with common painful sex, bladder and bowel diagnoses.
Typical diagnoses this program is successful with include vaginismus, vulvodynia, vulvar vestibulitis, vestibulodynia, genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder, interstitial cystitis, urinary urgency and/or frequency, overactive bladder, vulvar or perineal itching, painful tampon insertion, constipation and other muscle-based diagnoses that lead to painful intercourse or voiding dysfunctions. Please contact us for details.
*2 weeks typical for painfree tampon insertion goal; additional goals may vary.

Unlike other offices, your first visit to Femina Physical Therapy is a thorough 85 minute evaluation.
Here's an outline of what to expect when it comes to pelvic floor therapy.
The goal of this initial evaluation is to understand all the different layers that could possibly be contributing to your condition. Once we understand the root causes of your issue, we will formulate a treatment plan to help you start feeling better, experiencing less pain, and getting back to the activities that you care about.
