Wellness/Prehab
Kegel Clinic
Have you every wondered if you are doing it right? This 30 minute session will assess your ability to contract your pelvic floor muscles as well as give you tips on how and when to do them to be most effective. Often, this session is done completely externally with use of our real-time ultrasound; however, it may be recommended to also have an internal assessment if there appears to be a significant dysfunction. You will need to come to the clinic with a full bladder.
Core wellness check
Perfect for postpartum moms or anyone who are curious about their core. This 30 minutes session will assess your core for form and function. We will check for diastasis rectus abdominis (DRA) and core activation along with strength testing. The session ends with a personalized core program that you can start doing daily to keep your core in check.
prostatectomy prehab
If you are scheduled for a prostatectomy, preparing for surgery just makes sense. This program focuses on preparing the body and mind for the physical changes that happen after prostatectomy. Studies show prehab gets men dry quicker as well as returning to sexual function faster! This 60 minute session will teach you, under ultrasound guidance, how to properly contract and strengthen your pelvic floor muscles to assist with bladder control and sexual function,. It will also discuss what to expect after surgery and how to manage each stage of your recovery from incontinence to ED.
pelvic prehab
If you are scheduled for surgery, preparing the muscles of the pelvis just makes sense. This program was designed for those undergoing pelvic surgery, bladder repair or hysterectomy to ensure the quickest and best recovery of your pelvis. This 60 minute session will review how to best contract and relax your pelvic floor muscles and what to focus on in each stage of your recovery.
Pregnancy and Postpartum
pregnancy wellness
Make the most out of your pregnancy with this 30 minutes session. Designed to review how to best move, exercise and enjoy your pregnancy. Everything from exercise to how to best sleep will be reviewed in this program.
pushing practice
Did you know 30% of first time moms don't push right during labor? Find out before the big day with this 30 minute session that assesses your ability to relax the pelvic floor muscles while you gently simulate pushing. Real time ultrasound imaging brings to life what labor will be like and lets you watch how to best push like a pro!
postpartum checkup
After the big day has come and gone, get a postpartum check-up to see how well your core and pelvic floor are recovering. In this 60 minute session we will check for DRA, pelvic floor dysfunction and discuss topics such as how and when to return to exercise and intimacy.
Small Group Fitness Classes
Our owner Racquel Kurzweg is excited to go back to her roots of group fitness classes. She will be planning a variety of classes designed to help motivate and educate people to move more. Movement is proven to improve health, pain, mood and so much more, but if it isn't fun, it's just a chore. Come join our small group class and try out your favorite fitness trend.
Keeping classes small means you won't get lost in the crowd. With only 5-8 people in a class, you still get personal attention and proper cuing throughout the class to make sure you don't get injured and your body is getting the most out of your workout.

Our Treatment Approach
At Adore Your Core Physical Therapy, PLLC the focus is on you. We provide one on one care by a highly trained therapist in a calm, private environment. No one will be in our waiting room asking “what are you here for?” nor will you hear people whisper “what happens in that room?”.
Your therapist is trained in numerous treatment approaches including internal, external, fascial, visceral, ultrasound, exercise and equipment based care but chooses the approach that works best for you. You can expect your care to include extensive education about your body and your condition, expert hands on techniques to facilitate healing and wellness, and the proper movement and exercises to care for your specific condition.
A truly patient based approach. Treatment time and approaches are based on what works best for you and your condition. We don’t believe there is a one size fits all treatment program. That is why we created varied treatment times (30-60min and beyond) and wellness programs because not every condition is created equal. You may need more or less time in the clinic and we want to support that journey.
