Pelvic health concerns can be incredibly personal. Bladder leakage, bowel changes, pelvic pain, pain with intimacy, pregnancy and postpartum symptoms, urinary urgency, and men’s pelvic health concerns are not always easy to bring up—even with a healthcare professional.
Many people quietly search their symptoms online, wonder whether what they are experiencing is “normal,” and then put off getting help because they feel embarrassed or do not know where to begin.
I understand that reaching out can feel like a big step. That is why I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation. Before you schedule an evaluation, complete paperwork, invite someone into your home, or spend a penny, I want you to have an opportunity to ask questions and understand exactly what I do.
Pelvic Health Can Feel Embarrassing to Discuss
Pelvic health symptoms involve some of the most private parts of our lives. You may be worried about how to describe what you are experiencing. You may wonder whether your symptoms are serious enough for physical therapy. You may also feel nervous because you do not know what pelvic floor treatment involves.
Some patients have lived with symptoms for months or even years before telling anyone. Others have tried to mention their concerns and felt rushed, dismissed, or told that the symptoms were simply something they had to accept.
When you contact The Healthy Pelvis, you will not be judged, rushed, or pressured. My goal is to create a comfortable place where you can speak honestly, ask questions, and feel heard.
Why I Want to Talk Before You Spend a Penny
The free consultation is not a sales pitch. It is a brief, personal conversation that helps you understand whether my services may be a good fit for your needs.
During the call, I take the time to explain:
- What pelvic floor physical therapy is
- The types of symptoms and concerns I treat
- How personalized, one-on-one treatment works
- What to expect from an in-home visit
- What an initial evaluation may involve
- The practical next steps if you decide to move forward
If it sounds like a pelvic floor physical therapy evaluation could be helpful, I will explain why. If The Healthy Pelvis does not appear to be the right fit for your needs, I will be honest about that too.
You deserve clear information before making a healthcare decision or financial commitment.
Why The Healthy Pelvis Is Different and Personal
The Healthy Pelvis was intentionally designed to feel different from a busy, impersonal medical office.
When you schedule a free consultation, you speak directly with me, Dr. Melissa Scholl—not a salesperson or call center. You can tell me what has been bothering you, what you are hoping to change, and what questions are making you hesitate.
If you choose to begin care, your visits are private, personalized, and focused entirely on you. I provide one-on-one pelvic floor physical therapy in the comfort and privacy of your home, without the distractions or pressure of a crowded clinic.
I take the time to listen, explain what I am recommending, and design care around your symptoms, goals, comfort level, and daily life. You should understand what we are doing and why we are doing it at every step.
What Can We Discuss During the Free Consultation?
You do not need to know your diagnosis or use the “right” medical words. Simply tell me what you have been noticing and how it affects your life.
We can discuss concerns such as:
- Bladder leakage with coughing, sneezing, running, or exercise
- Sudden urinary urges or frequent bathroom trips
- Pelvic pain, pressure, or muscle tension
- Pain during or after intimacy
- Constipation, bowel urgency, or difficulty emptying
- Pregnancy-related discomfort
- Postpartum recovery concerns
- Core weakness or pressure after childbirth
- Urinary symptoms or pelvic pain in men
- Recovery following prostate surgery
You only need to share what you feel comfortable discussing. The call is a starting point—not an examination.
What the Consultation Is—and Is Not
The free 15-minute consultation is an informational phone conversation. It gives you a chance to ask questions and learn more about the services offered by The Healthy Pelvis.
The consultation is not:
- A physical examination
- A medical diagnosis
- A treatment session
- A replacement for emergency or medical care
- A commitment to schedule an appointment
There is no pressure and no obligation. After the call, you can schedule an initial evaluation, take time to think about it, or decide that another next step is better for you.
