Hey there, welcome to the NorthStar Physical Therapy podcast!
I am your host, Dr. Shirlea North and I dive into lymphedema, lipedema, and various pelvic health dysfunctions.

Let NorthStar Physical Therapy guide and navigate you on your journey to optimal health!
This episode is all about the critical role of pelvic floor physical therapy before and after prostatectomies. I want to discuss this important topic because when you have the male organ, there is a likelihood that as you age, that organ may not be operating optimally.
I will be sharing with you the pre-operative therapy you may consider in order to improve the post-op outcomes.
Please listen to this episode so that you empower yourself with options on how you can take better care of yourself post-op!
Let’s discuss:
- Introduction to today’s topic
- Why Prostate Health Matters
- Common symptoms that might indicate prostate or pelvic floor issues
- How pelvic floor physical therapists assess urinary function, hydration, posture, and more to provide holistic care
- Preparing for Prostate Surgery: The benefits of pre-operative therapy to improve post-op outcomes.
- Post-Surgery Recovery: A look at the 4-week post-op timeline for catheter removal and the gradual return of urinary function, plus tips on managing expectations
