Centrality Physical Therapy & Wellness

The Best Providers on the Connecticut Shoreline for Pelvic Health Physical Therapy

Conveniently located in-person in Guilford & New Canaan Connecticut & Virtual Options for Individuals Located Outside of Connecticut

Centrality Physical Therapy & Wellness treats the things that are “too taboo for the dinner table” and the conditions that are “common” but most certainly not best health. Our clinic is for anyone struggling with pelvic health issues: kiddos & adults. Most of our clients have seen a multitude of other providers & have tried various interventions without long-term solutions.

Centrality Wellness was created because I, too, was frustrated with the current status of the healthcare system; so I decided to do it differently. The experience you will have at Centrality Wellness is far from what you have experienced in the past; we pride ourselves on setting the bar high and curating plans that put you & your goals at the center of our collaborative decision making

 
Pelvic Health Physical Therapy Evaluation Connecticut

Pelvic Health Physical Therapy

Pelvic Health Physical Therapy is a term for the specialty niche of the rehab world. Pelvic Health PT focuses on the rehabilitation of the pelvis / pelvic floor and the functions that this area of the body is responsible for: bladder health, bowel health, sexual health & function, pregnancy & postpartum healing, and even pelvic dysfunction as noted by pain.

Pelvic health therapy is perfect for the individual who is experiencing any of the following:

  • Urinary Incontinence (leakage)

  • The pregnant individual who is wanting to prepare their body for birth

  • Pain with intercourse, inserting a tampon, and/or a medically necessary GYN examination.

  • Postpartum rehab & healing after vaginal and c-section birth

  • Diastasis Recti Abdominus

  • stool consistency issues: constipation or diarrhea

Pediatric Pelvic Health

Pediatric Pelvic health Physical Therapy is an even more specialty niche of practice as a subset of pelvic health rehab. There are less than 10 pediatric pelvic health physical therapists in the state of Connecticut at the time of this website update, and at Centrality Physical Therapy & Wellness, we have TWO pediatric pelvic health therapy specialists!

Kiddos are an incredibly underserved population in the pelvic health realm with many diagnoses being treated with interventions without a clear or concise plan. Kiddos with the following conditions would benefit from pediatric pelvic health PT/OT:

  • Constipation

  • Bedwetting

  • Withholding

  • fear of toileting or difficulty with potty training

This list is not all inclusive, learn more about pediatric pelvic physical therapy & other reasons to see one of our pediatric pelvic health therapy specialists.

 

Orthopedics

when you think “orthopedic Physical Therapy” you probably think about your shoulder or knee injury and you’d be right! The entire body is connected and your pelvis plays a huge role in how other aspects of your body function when you run, walk, bend, lift, etc

At Centrality Wellness, we focus on treating the WHOLE you and that means assessing your movement; from head to your feet. Things that we see that are “more ortho” in nature include:

  • Pesky low back pain that won’t go away

  • Hip punching, catching, or clicking with movement

  • Tailbone pain with a secondary hamstring strain

  • “Chronic non responders” who have tried everything else but still have challenges

  • Runner with leakage and recurrent ankle sprains

 

Remote Consultations

A remote consult  at centrality wellness is a wellness-based service that allows us to discuss your story, generate an action plan & provide clarity around your pelvic health. This is perfect for anyone who isn’t local to Connecticut or someone who isn’t near one of our clinic locations.

Just because it is common, does not mean it has to be your destiny.

 

If you are wondering why you have never hear of pelvic health physical therapy, you are not alone! the Majority of our clients ask us this question in their sessions. Many pelvic health conditions are commonly accepted as “inevitable”. You have probably heard something along these things: “I pee when I sneeze because I am a mom” or “I have always been constipated, so this is my normal” or "even “I have been told this (your bladder/bowel/sexual health) is just how it is going to be.”

This is simply not the case: just because it is common, doesn’t mean that it is your optimal function or your destiny. You have options & you CAN rehab your pelvic health function.

  • Sheron is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything to you. It is very obvious to me that she cares about her patients and wants what’s best. I am currently healing from diastasis recti and appreciate her individualizing my PT program to help me heal and become stronger. I highly recommend taking the time to heal and working with someone as wonderful as Sheron. Thank you!

    CC

  • Dr. Kleiner is outstanding in how she works with children on sensitive bladder issues! We have seen her twice now for bed wetting and she GENUINELY cares about my son and is helping us tackle it head on. She explains things to him so he can understand them and grasp why he is doing certain exercises, logging bladder habits, etc. Dr Kleiner makes his appointments fun and he never once complains about going! Thanks so much for your dedication to helping my son Dr. Kleiner!
