Treatments
At Kamin Physical Therapy, we start by conducting a comprehensive examination of your musculoskeletal system. Your posture, gait, alignment, range of motion and strength of your pelvic floor, abdominals, muscles of the back, and extremities are evaluated. We may perform a pelvic floor muscle exam to determine strength, tone, sensation, tenderness, scarring and any other abnormalities of the pelvic muscles. From our first evaluation session we will determine your specific needs then build a customized program of physical therapy and recovery.
