Your body isn’t a collection of separate parts, and your physical therapy shouldn’t be either.
Built to Move provides one-on-one pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapy in Spring Lake, NJ and surrounding areas, helping you understand what’s contributing to your symptoms and build a plan that supports the way you want to move and live.
From pelvic pain and incontinence to pregnancy, postpartum recovery, injuries, and everything in between, your care is personalized to your body, your goals, and where you are right now.
Pelvic floor physical therapy addresses the strength, mobility, and coordination of the muscles that support bladder, bowel, sexual, and pelvic function. When these muscles aren’t working optimally, symptoms like leakage, urgency, constipation, pelvic pain, pressure, or pain with intercourse can interfere with everyday life.
At Built to Move, we believe the pelvic floor is only one piece of the puzzle. We look at how your core, hips, spine, breathing, strength, and movement patterns may be contributing to your symptoms. Through a comprehensive assessment and individualized treatment plan, we combine pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapy to address the whole body, not just the symptom.
Pelvic floor concerns are common, but they don’t have to become your new normal. Our goal is to help you understand what’s going on, address the factors contributing to your symptoms, and get you back to feeling strong, confident, and comfortable in your body
Pain isn’t always coming from where you feel it. Our orthopedic physical therapy takes a whole-body approach, including pelvic floor considerations, to uncover the movement, mobility, strength, and coordination factors that may be contributing to your symptoms. With one-on-one care that combines hands-on treatment and progressive exercise, we’ll help you move better, build strength, and get back to the workouts, sports, and everyday activities you love.
Through a combination of hands-on treatment, movement assessment, and progressive strength and mobility work, we address the whole picture, not just your symptoms. Our goal is to help you move better, build confidence in your body, and get back to the workouts, sports, and everyday activities you love without pain holding you back.
Pregnancy brings a lot of changes to your body, but pain and feeling limited don’t have to be things you simply push through. Our pregnancy physical therapy combines pelvic health and orthopedic care to support you through every stage, whether you’re addressing pain or an existing concern, or taking a proactive approach to reduce common aches and discomfort as your body changes. We’ll help you stay strong, comfortable, and confident with movement and exercise while also preparing your pelvic floor and body for labor, birth, and postpartum recovery.
Your postpartum recovery deserves more than being told to simply “wait six weeks” and ease back into exercise. Postpartum physical therapy helps you rebuild core and pelvic floor strength, address changes from pregnancy and birth, and create a safe, individualized path back to the activities you love. Whether you’re experiencing pain or pelvic floor symptoms, recovering from a vaginal or Cesarean birth, or simply want guidance returning to lifting, running, or exercise, we’ll help you rebuild strength and confidence from the ground up.
Prepare your body for labor and delivery with individualized guidance on pelvic floor relaxation, perineal massage, breathing and pushing techniques, birth positions, and partner-assisted comfort strategies. Our goal is to give you the knowledge and practical tools to feel confident in your body and prepared for whatever your birth experience may bring. Connections to local doulas, midwives, and birth education classes.
Bowel and digestive concerns can impact so much more than your time in the bathroom. The bowel and pelvic floor are closely connected and can have a significant impact on one another. Your pelvic floor muscles help coordinate bowel movements, manage pressure, and allow for comfortable emptying, while ongoing bowel and digestive concerns can influence how these muscles function. If you’re experiencing changes in your bowel or gut health, your pelvic floor may be playing a role. Pelvic floor physical therapy can help address these contributing factors and improve bowel function, comfort, and confidence.
When additional support is needed, we collaborate with trusted gastroenterologists, dietitians, and other healthcare providers to make sure you have the right team in your corner.
Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes in hormones, strength, and tissue health that may contribute to new or worsening pelvic floor symptoms. Changes such as bladder or bowel concerns, pelvic pressure, dryness, discomfort with intimacy, and pelvic pain are common during this stage of life—but that doesn’t mean you have to simply live with them.
Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you navigate these changes by addressing strength, mobility, pelvic floor function, and the other factors contributing to your symptoms. Whether you’re noticing changes for the first time, dealing with concerns you’ve had for years, or recovering from a hysterectomy or prolapse repair, your care is individualized to help you feel strong, comfortable, and confident through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Trying to conceive can feel overwhelming, especially when the process is taking longer than expected or you’re navigating fertility treatments or IVF. You may also be dealing with irregular or anovulatory cycles, PCOS, painful periods, pelvic pain, or other symptoms that make the journey feel even more complicated.
Physical therapy can be a supportive part of your preconception and fertility care. Through a whole-body approach, we address pelvic floor function, abdominal and pelvic mobility, musculoskeletal restrictions, breathing and pressure management, and nervous system regulation to help your body move and function at its best. Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or undergoing fertility treatment, care is individualized to meet you where you are and support your pelvic health throughout the process.
