“What I love about physical therapy is helping people live their lives again. Sustaining any injury or episode of pain is not the most fun thing. However, being able to assist a person in gaining their quality of life back is something I find very rewarding. It’s always neat to hear someone say they are going to miss coming into physical therapy, because despite going through some difficult times, they were still able to find value in the relationships that were built.” DPT: Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions, Provo, UT BS: Exercise Science, Utah Valley University, Orem, UT Member: American Physical Therapy Association, Utah Physical Therapy Association As a physical therapist, Casey has worked primarily in outpatient orthopedics. He enjoys treating patients from all walks of life with a variety of conditions. His goal is to help everyone accomplish their desired level of function based on their own individual goals. He believes that this is best accomplished as a team, where he helps each person with a hands-on approach, followed up by educating them on how to maintain long-term results independently. When Casey isn’t working, he loves spending time with his wife and three kids. He also has a passion for sports—watching, playing, coaching, and even refereeing. He especially likes to play softball, basketball, golf, and go cycling. He loves watching Utah Jazz basketball and college football.

A physical therapist is highly skilled in evaluating and treating various musculoskeletal and neurological conditions affecting the body. This profession focuses on assessing any underlying factors, such as strength, neuromuscular control, balance, coordination, skeletal alignment, and endurance, which may be contributing to impaired functional mobility, activity participation, and quality of life. Of course, most people only seek physical therapy when they’re suffering from a common injury or condition such as whiplash, tendonitis, low back pain, ligament sprains, and plantar fasciitis. Perhaps lesser known is that chronic pelvic pain and dysfunction, including incontinence, can also respond positively to physical therapy intervention. Causes Of Incontinence And Chronic Pelvic Pain If you have pain in your pelvis, it may notalwaysbe fullyclearwhat’scausing it.Somecommoncausesofpelvicfloor

dysfunction and chronic pelvic pain include, but are not limited to: • Pregnancy • Sacroiliac joint dysfunction • Coccydynia • Irritationof thepudendalnerve (which originates near the bottom of your spine) • Irritable bowel syndrome • Levator ani syndrome (increased tension in pelvic floor muscles) • Post-surgical complications (e.g., pain following a hysterectomy, hernia repair, cesarean section, and/or prostatectomy) Any of these conditions may lead to inadequate support of the organs contained with your pelvic cavity, increased pressure or inflammation of nerves, muscles, and other connective tissues (including your bladder), and impaired pelvic bone alignment.These symptoms can be frustrating, painful, and embarrassing, and may limit your tolerance to daily participation in desired activities, including exercise.

Other symptoms frequently appear withpelvicpain, including incontinence, bloating,abdominalpressure,reluctance to strain while defecating, and pain in the low back, buttocks, and hips. You may also have decreased tolerance to avarietyofactivities includingsittingor standing, walking, exercise, and sexual intercourse.

PREGNANCY MUSCULOSKELETAL DYSFUNCTION Pregnancy demands a tremendous amount out of a women’s body. Changes in posture, muscle strength, ligament stability and pelvic alignment, can leave lasting, painful changes such as pelvic or back pain. However, having a child doesn’t mean that you have to live with the painful changes forever, and most women can have significant improvements in their pain and function with physical therapy.

Our physical therapists address the musculoskeletal components of pregnancy and postpartum issues, including incontinence, pelvic floor muscle dysfunction and prenatal joint/muscle dysfunction. Weakness, poor muscle coordination, abdominal strength or bladder habits may also contribute to musculoskeletal dysfunction. After evaluating the muscles, joints and/or nerves contributing to pain, our therapists will recommend modifications of posture and review proper body mechanics/bowel/bladder habits. Other treatments include soft tissue massage, mobilization, stretching and core stabilization. If you suffer with any of the issues above, know that we are here to help you achieve results discreetly, and return you to the activities you love. Call us today to discover how we can help you and talk to one of our physical therapists today.
