Chronic constipation, fecal incontinence, and bowel dysfunction are among the most isolating conditions a person can deal with — and among the most undertreated. Most people suffer in silence for years, cycling through laxatives, dietary changes, and gastroenterology appointments without ever addressing the root cause.
At Pelvicore Rehab & Wellness, we treat bowel dysfunction through a whole-body pelvic floor physical therapy approach that gets to what's actually driving your symptoms. For many people, the answer isn't in their diet or their gut — it's in their pelvic floor.
At Pelvicore we treat the full spectrum of bowel dysfunction including:
"Constipation was ruining my life. I was afraid to leave my house. I usually would not go anywhere until after I had went #2 at least a little, which took all morning. Sometimes I had to cancel plans I had made for the entire day, and I would try again another day. After completing sessions with Jessica at Pelvicore Rehab, I got my life back. I now confidently make plans - even in the morning hours!" Anonymous Male, age 38
MEET YOUR PELVIC FLOOR THERAPIST
Susan Winograd, MSPT has been treating pelvic floor dysfunction in men and women for nearly 30 years. She founded Pelvicore Rehab & Wellness with a single focus: getting to the root cause of symptoms that other providers have dismissed, misdiagnosed, or failed to resolve.
Susan specializes in the kind of cases that arrive at her door after years of dead ends — chronic pelvic pain, post-surgical recovery, bladder and bowel dysfunction, and sexual health issues that most men have never been able to talk openly about with a provider. She's been featured in Peloton, Fit + Well, and numerous health podcasts for her whole-body, non-surgical approach to pelvic health.
Her approach is thorough, judgment-free, and built around one question: what is your body actually telling us?

Yes — and the connection is more direct than most people realize. The pelvic floor and lower back share muscular and fascial connections, and chronic pelvic floor tension from constipation can refer pain directly into the lower back, tailbone, and hips. Treating the pelvic floor dysfunction often resolves both the bowel symptoms and the associated back pain simultaneously.
Yes. The sacroiliac joint sits adjacent to the pelvic floor and sacral nerve roots that innervate the bowel. SI joint dysfunction can contribute to pelvic floor tension and nerve irritation that disrupts normal bowel function. This is one of the reasons a whole-body evaluation at Pelvicore often reveals connections that a standard gastroenterology or orthopedic assessment misses.
Frequently, yes. Dyssynergic defecation — where the pelvic floor fails to relax at the right moment — is one of the most common and most underdiagnosed causes of chronic constipation. If you've tried dietary changes, fiber, and laxatives without lasting relief, pelvic floor dysfunction may be what's actually driving your symptoms.
Absolutely. Bowel dysfunction affects men and women equally. We treat men with chronic constipation, fecal incontinence, and bowel dysfunction related to CPPS, post-surgical recovery, and neurogenic conditions.
Through pelvic floor physical therapy, biofeedback, bowel retraining, and manual therapy techniques that address the musculoskeletal root cause of the dysfunction. Most patients see meaningful improvement within a few sessions without the need for ongoing medication or invasive procedures.
