Orthopedic Physical Therapy in Charleston, SC

orthopedic physical therapy treatment

If you are experiencing orthopedic pain within the pelvis that isn't getting better with generalized care, I would highly recommend getting the pelvic floor screened.

Sometimes the pain can actually be referred from the pelvic floor muscles. It could also be due to weakness or lack of stability within the pelvis. Finally, it could be due to lack of core strength and awareness. This isn’t something you have to live with! First, find the problem. Then, find the solution. You can achieve both of those goals when you visit our Charleston, SC wellness clinic for orthopedic care.

Here are some common symptoms we work with:

  • Pelvic Pain

  • Low back Pain

  • Hip pain

  • Tailbone Pain

  • ​SI Pain


At Rome Physical Therapy, we can assist you with any of these conditions by providing orthopedic treatment in the Mount Pleasant, SC area, including Charleston, SC. Our team can help you prevent injury and aid in your recovery from injuries and health conditions.

Find the Source of Your Pain with a Pelvic Floor Screening

The first step to eliminating any pain you may be experiencing is identifying the source. That can be accomplished with a pelvic floor screening at Rome Physical Therapy’s wellness clinic in Charleston, SC. We have experienced physical therapy doctors on staff who can provide an analysis of your symptoms and help identify what is causing them. In many cases, muscle, hip, and joint pain can begin with the muscles of the pelvic floor. By working with a physical therapist on the strength of these muscles, you may be able to eliminate mobility issues, improve your posture, and improve the overall function of your musculoskeletal system.

Some pain can also be caused by an injury. If that is the case, we can develop a rehabilitation treatment plan to speed up the healing process for many types of injuries. At our Charleston, SC area wellness clinic, we can work with you to develop a physical therapy rehabilitation plan and provide support throughout the healing process.

    • Lower Back Pain – Your spine is a complex system of vertebra, discs, muscles, nerves, and other tissues. As a result of its complexity, the spine is prone to pain from many different sources. Pain in the lower back can often be traced to weakness and imbalance of the pelvic floor muscles.

    • Hip Pain – Issues with your posture, osteoarthritis, muscle injuries, and many other conditions can cause hip pain. When you go through our screening process, you can find out if your issues originate in the pelvic floor and find out how to solve them with exercises to restore your mobility.

    • Joint Pain – If you have issues with your hip joint, they may be caused by your pelvic floor muscles. Physical therapy could be the non-surgical, no-medication solution you are looking for!

    • Pelvic Girdle Pain – Many of the pelvic floor muscles are attached to the pelvic girdle, which provides support and protection for the internal organs. As such, any issues with the pelvic floor can pull the bone of the pelvic girdle out of alignment, causing pain and mobility issues.

    • Groin Pain – Pain in your groin may be caused by an injury or by other issues. In any case, the speed of your recovery can be improved by working with a physical therapist.

    • Sciatica – The sciatic nerve runs along the spine, through the hip bone, and all the way down to the toes. Issues with the pelvic floor muscles can cause it to become pinched, causing an intense, shooting pain in the lower back and down the legs.

    • Abdominal Pain – pain in the abdomen can have many causes, including issues with the pelvic floor.

    • Postural Imbalances – You can improve your posture and correct spinal misalignments by working on the strength of the core muscles that support the spinal column.

    • Pain During Movement or Exercise – If you can’t exercise without pain or you generally have trouble moving, a physical therapist may be able to help you identify the cause of the problem and develop a treatment plan to fix it.

    • Leg Pain or Weakness – Pain or weakness in the legs could be related to the sciatic nerve or to other issues with the core and pelvic muscles.

    • Coccyx (Tailbone) Pain – Many people injure this bone when falling backwards, and it can be very painful. You can lessen your recovery time by working with an orthopedic physical therapist.
