Pessary Fitting
Palmer Physical Therapy for Women offers pessary fitting sessions, which includes consultation, assessment, sizing, trial placement, comfort/function check and follow-up sessions. Pessaries are a non-surgical option to treat pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence by internally supporting the pelvic floor. Pessary size and shape is unique for each pelvic floor.
