Pelvic Organ Prolapse & Heaviness – Find Relief & Function (Without Surgery)
Have you been afraid of lifting, running, or picking up your kids because of heaviness, pressure, or urine leakage?
Do you struggle with:
A constant “heavy” or “bulging” sensation in your pelvis, especially after standing or exercising?
Feeling like something is “falling out” or increased pelvic pressure at the end of the day?
Leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, jump, or lift something heavy?
Avoiding exercise, running, or impact-based workouts out of fear of making your symptoms worse?
Trouble fully emptying your bladder or bowels or feeling like there’s a blockage?
Increased discomfort or pressure during intimacy?
Uncertainty about whether pelvic floor therapy can help—or feeling dismissed when you’ve tried to seek care?
Pelvic organ prolapse and heaviness are common—but not something you have to accept as your new normal. In fact, avoiding movement out of fear often makes symptoms feel worse over time (because we get weaker). It’s time to break the cycle and regain strength, confidence, and control over your body. If you're ready, start your journey with Renew Health.

"I am so thankful for Renew Health and Dr. Sara! I had been diagnosed with a stage 3/4 Bladder and vaginal wall prolapse and was devastated. I thought my only option would be surgery, me and Dr. Sara set goals. I completed my 12 week program. I nailed those goals. I no longer feel like I’m going to need surgery. My confidence in my body is back. I feel stronger than ever!"

What is a prolapse?
Pelvic organ prolapse, commonly referred to as POP, occurs when one or more pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum, bulge into the vaginal wall.
Prolapse severity is graded on a I-IV scale, however symptoms do not always correlate with severity. Some people have significant heaviness with a grade 1 (the lowest) prolapse and some do not realize they have a prolapse but may have a grade 2 or 3.
What are the types of prolapse?
Cystocele — The bladder bulges into the vagina.
Rectocele — The rectum bulges into the vagina.
Enterocele — The small intestine bulges into the vagina.
Urethrocele — The urethra moves from its normal position and presses against the front wall of the vagina.
Uterine or vaginal vault prolapse — the uterus drops into the vagina, or if a hysterectomy was performed, the top of the vagina itself falls downward.
What are the symptoms of a prolapse?
Most commonly, people may have a sensation of pressure, fullness, or heaviness in the pelvic region. This sensation may feel like something is pushing down or "falling out" of the vagina. There may be a bulge of tissue that may protrude from the vaginal opening. This may be more noticeable when standing, lifting or straining. POP may cause symptoms related to bowel function, such as constipation or difficulty emptying bowel movements and urinary function, such as leakage, frequent urination, or difficulty emptying.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Amazing! I went to see Brianna for a uterine prolapse. She is a wealth of knowledge and takes a whole body approach. After one session my symptoms were better and she even alleviated neck pain which I’ve had for over a decade. She is easy to talk to and makes the entire experience comfortable. I feel like I’m talking with a friend when I’m there. I only wish I had found her sooner!"
