Townsend and White Sulphur Springs
Why Townsend and White Sulphur Springs patients choose video.
Townsend sits at the south end of Canyon Ferry Lake on the Missouri, close enough to Helena that plenty of residents commute, with hay meadows and cattle all around. Over the Big Belts on Highway 12, White Sulphur Springs is Smith River country, ringed by the Little Belts, the Castles and the Crazies, with a hot springs pool in town. Summer brings lake campers and Smith River floaters; winter brings wind and quiet. Back and hip pain, bladder leaking and pelvic pain in men are common reasons people here book.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Montana: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.

Questions
Questions from Townsend and White Sulphur Springs
Do you treat men with pelvic pain from long hours on a tractor or in a truck?
Yes. Chronic pelvic pain in men, including pain that builds with long hours of sitting, is treated one-on-one by video. The plan includes ways to change position, breathe and move through a long day in the seat.
Can a Townsend mom whose kids are grown still get help for leaking?
Yes. It is never too late to start. Leaking with coughing, lifting or running is treated by video whether the last birth was two years ago or twenty, with visits from a private room at home.
How soon can I be seen?
Usually within a week. Early morning, evening and weekend video visits are available.
