Introducing Virtual Pelvic Health

You heard that right! Kins is now offering virtual pelvic health physical therapy, making this specialized care more accessible and convenient than ever before.

Before exploring the benefits of virtual pelvic health physical therapy with Kins, it’s important to understand what the pelvic floor is. The pelvic floor is a sling of muscles, ligaments, and tissues located at the bottom of the pelvis and performs a number of very important jobs including: 

  • Support (for internal organs)
  • Sphincteric (urethra, vagina, and anus)
  • Sexual (relaxes for penetration and contracts for orgasm)
  • Stability (fixes the trunk with extremity movements)
  • Sump Pump (for the circulatory system)

Pelvic health physical therapy uses targeted exercises, neuromuscular re-education, and patient education to address any issues that may arise in this area.  

Some common symptoms of pelvic health dysfunction include, but are not limited to:

  • Pelvic pain and/or pressure (in genitals, perineum, or bladder area)
  • Tailbone, low back, hip, or groin pain
  • Urinary and/or fecal incontinence 
  • Urinary urgency or frequency 
  • Constipation
  • Pain with sexual activity

If any of your patients experience these symptoms, refer them to Kins today!

So, what makes Kins different?

Physical therapists at Kins bring the highest quality and value care straight to their patients. Let’s explore what sets pelvic health therapy with Kins apart from the rest.

Convenient and Flexible Scheduling

Virtual therapy fits into your patients’ lives, not the other way around. Patients schedule sessions when it suits them - during lunch breaks, while their baby naps, or even while a kid is home sick from school. This can be the difference between receiving care or not! This flexibility also means that patients are more likely to stick with their treatment plans, facilitating better clinical outcomes and longer-term success.

Covered By Your Insurance 

Kins is in-network with most commercial insurances and Medicare - we’ve made quality care affordable and accessible, unlike many cash-pay clinics that make care prohibitively expensive. Even better, patients can schedule their initial session in as little as 48 hours. Many in-network offices have notoriously long wait times to get started, but that’s not the case with Kins! 

In the Privacy of Your Own Home 

Talking about pelvic health can be inherently sensitive, but virtual therapy makes it comfortable. When patients are more relaxed, they are better able to describe their symptoms and be an active participant in their treatment. Plus, the best home exercise program is one demonstrated and performed exactly the way they’ll do it on their own at home!

Undivided Attention From Your Physical Therapist 

Kins offers 1-on-1 personalized care during 45-55 minute long treatment sessions. Many traditional clinics see multiple patients simultaneously, which can lead to fragmented care. With Kins, patients see the same therapist throughout the course of their treatment plan, allowing for better communication and appropriate progressions. Kins physical therapists treat patients holistically and, through virtual at-home care, have unique insight into a patient’s daily environment and activities.

Manage Your Care 24-7 with the Kins Mobile App 

The Kins Mobile App allows patients to provide feedback, manage appointments and communicate with their physical therapist at the tip of their fingers. It’s also where patients access their home exercise program with clear pictures, videos, and instructions. No more paper printouts or need to find pen and paper!

To Tie It All Together 

By referring your patients to Kins, you're offering them a modern, accessible approach to pelvic health physical therapy that adapts to their lifestyle while maintaining the highest standards of care. Our patient-centric model not only improves compliance but also promotes better outcomes - all from the comfort and privacy of their own home.
