Non-Surgical Support for Pelvic Health

If you’re experiencing pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence, a pessary may be a simple and effective solution. At PhysioFit of North Carolina, our women’s health physical therapists specialize in pessary fittings to provide non-surgical relief and support for women’s pelvic health.

What Is a Pessary?

A pessary is a small, removable medical device designed to support the pelvic organs when they shift due to weakened muscles, pregnancy, or aging. It is commonly used to help with:

✅ Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) – including bladder, uterus, and rectal prolapse
✅ Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) – leaking with coughing, sneezing, or exercise
✅ Postpartum pelvic support – for recovery and stability after childbirth
✅ Preventing surgery or managing symptoms before/after a procedure

Why Choose a Physical Therapist for Pessary Fitting?

At PhysioFit, we take a holistic approach to women’s health, ensuring that your pessary is not only the right fit but also part of a comprehensive plan to improve your pelvic floor strength, posture, and core stability.

During your appointment, we will:
✔️ Assess your pelvic health and determine if a pessary is appropriate
✔️ Fit you with the correct type and size for optimal comfort and effectiveness
✔️ Provide education on insertion, removal, and care
✔️ Offer pelvic floor therapy to improve long-term pelvic strength and function

Who Can Benefit from a Pessary?

Pessaries are a great option for women of all ages who want to avoid surgery, are postpartum, or need extra pelvic support during exercise and daily activities.
