The Land Down Under: Pelvic Floor Problems

It’s a subject most women – and men – don’t want to talk about, but symptoms affect both genders and all ages. Causes include pregnancy or childbirth, surgery, cancer, age and trauma. Symptoms range from pelvic, abdominal and low back pain to painful intercourse and incontinence.

Dr. Kelly Armstrong, a rehabilitation physician, and Shana Holda, a physical therapist, specialize in treating pelvic floor conditions. They’ll discuss the importance of the pelvic floor to long-term health and share noninvasive techniques to help manage symptoms, relieve pain and improve strength, mobility and function.

Light refreshments will be available.

Event held in the Community Room at the Mary Free Bed YMCA (5500 Burton St. SE, Grand Rapids).
