Your Pelvic Floor 101 at – Santa Rosa, CA

Don’t miss Your Pelvic Floor 101 in Santa Rosa, CA. Happening on Tuesday, February 4, 2025 at . Doors open at 6:00 PM.

Dr. Laura Gephart, urogynecologist, discusses what’s normal & what’s not for pelvic floor health. 

How is Your Bottom Line? Do you, or your clients, have to run to the bathroom (urgency!), find every bathroom in town (frequency!), have pain with sex (not a turn on!), leak urine when you laugh or cough (not funny!). No person should have to worry about what will leak or fall out when they sneeze!

Get a review of anatomy, hear about symptoms of dysfunction and how to be assessed. A follow up session will cover different solutions for recovery including physical therapy and surgical options.
