Key Benefits of Men’s Pelvic Care
- Improved Nighttime Urinary Control
Frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom can disrupt your sleep and leave you feeling exhausted the next day. Our therapies focus on strengthening and coordinating your pelvic floor muscles, helping you regain control and reduce the urge to urinate at night. With better bladder function, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted sleep and wake up feeling more energized and refreshed. - Decreased Urinary Hesitation and Dribbling
Urinary hesitation and dribbling can be embarrassing and frustrating, especially in public settings or during daily activities. Through targeted pelvic floor therapy, we help you improve muscle coordination and bladder control, reducing leakage and hesitation. This can restore your confidence and help you feel more at ease wherever you go. - Enhanced Ability to Empty the Bladder Fully
The sensation of not fully emptying your bladder can lead to discomfort, frequent bathroom visits, and a sense of urgency. Our therapies focus on improving bladder function and pelvic floor muscle strength, ensuring you can completely empty your bladder. You’ll feel more comfortable and experience fewer unnecessary trips to the restroom. - Relief from Constipation
Chronic constipation can be uncomfortable and impact your daily life. Pelvic floor therapy addresses the muscle coordination required for proper bowel movements, easing straining and promoting regularity. By improving muscle control and relaxation, you’ll enjoy smoother, more consistent bowel movements and reduced discomfort. - Boosted Sexual Health
A strong pelvic floor is essential for sexual health and function. Strengthening these muscles through tailored exercises can enhance control, improve performance, and increase satisfaction in intimate moments. Whether you’re experiencing discomfort or simply want to improve function, pelvic floor therapy can make a noticeable difference, boosting your confidence and quality of life.

Success Stories & Testimonials

I cannot say enough amazing things about Sarton PT and specifically Dr. Nikita. From the moment you walk in it is such a welcoming place and every person that works there is so kind. It took years for me to realize my health concerns were pelvic floor related and when I made my appointment they scheduled me with Dr. Nikita. I felt so much peace and relief after the first appointment because she was able to thoroughly explain to me what my problems were and what the next steps were to resolve it.

I am so grateful for Julie Sarton and Sarton Physical Therapy! My pain journey has been a long one, and I had all but given up. When I was at my lowest, I decided to try pelvic floor physical therapy one more time, and I’m so glad I chose to come to Sarton Physical Therapy! They offer an array of therapeutic modalities, and they know it’s a matter of tailoring the right combination for every individual. Julie and her team are dedicated, determined, patient and kind. They have helped me gain a better understanding of my body, and while I’m not quite 100% pain free, I see that I am improving. I thank each and every therapist for doing what they do. They have made a huge impact in my life and have given me the gift of returned hope. For that, I could never thank them enough!

There is no way to put into words the level of skill, expertise and quality of care that the Pelvic Healing and Sarton team offer. As a fellow pelvic floor therapist and clinic owner, I was looking for a clinic to help treat some aliments that let’s just say are hard to treat on yourself. I was so blown away by the compassion and skill level that I received there. The constraints of insurance often limit the quality of care, and duration of care, that you can receive but by paying out of pocket this is not the case and Julie and her team are worth every cent! I am beyond grateful for the care that I received from them and I recommend to anyone in need of pelvic floor therapy in Orange County, and beyond, to reach out to Julie Sarton and her team. They are the most experienced clinic in Orange county as well as have an International presence that far exceeds other PT clinics. You will not be disappointed!
