Vaginismus

Vaginismus is a condition where the body automatically responds to the fear of pain during penetration by causing the vaginal muscles to tighten. This involuntary reaction can make sexual activity, medical exams, or tampon insertion difficult and painful. At Built to Move Physical Therapy and Wellness in Spring Lake, we specialize in helping individuals with vaginismus through targeted pelvic floor physical therapy.

Pelvic floor physical therapy aims to help relax the vaginal muscles, reducing the fear and discomfort associated with penetration. With proven techniques such as biofeedback therapy, pelvic PT can help retrain the body’s response and promote muscle relaxation. Vaginal dilators are sometimes used as part of the therapeutic process to increase comfort and regain confidence.

If you're struggling with vaginismus in the Spring Lake area, don’t let pain hold you back. Our pelvic floor physical therapy services are designed to address the root causes of your condition and help you restore comfort and confidence.
