Urogynecology
Urogynecology is the combination of obstetrics/gynecology and urology that aims to diagnose and treat pelvic floor disorders, including conditions that affect the muscles, ligaments and nerves of the pelvic floor. There are both surgical and non-surgical options for women suffering from pelvic pain, incontinence and more.
The urogynecology experts at UCHealth are board-certified pelvic health specialists trained in all aspects of female pelvic medicine, including urinary disorders and reconstructive pelvic floor surgery. We use the latest diagnosis and treatment methods, and we’ll work closely with you to develop a custom treatment plan to restore your quality of life.

Physical therapy
Physical therapists are a unique and integral part of treatment available in the Women’s Pelvic Health Program. They can help improve your joint mobility in the spine and pelvic region, ease muscle tension and help to restore the function of the muscles in the pelvic region.
Our physical therapists utilize methods such as:
- Neuromuscular reeducation and biofeedback
- Electrical stimulation and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)
- Manual therapy to address myofascial restrictions
- Exercise prescription for stretching or strengthening the muscles
- Education for self-management
