Can I start pelvic floor physical therapy without seeing my OB first?
Yes. New York allows physical therapy without a referral for up to 10 visits or 30 days. After birth, most people wait for the postpartum check before starting exercise.
What can be done by video?
Most of pelvic floor physical therapy is education, breathing, coordination training and a home program, which can all be done by video. An internal examination is not possible by video; if a hands-on assessment would change the plan, Dr. Shalem says so.
