Men's Sexual Health Treatment in Los Altos, CA
Erectile dysfunction, pain, and post-surgical changes don't have to be permanent. Physical therapy offers a proven, non-invasive path to improving sexual function and reclaiming your confidence.
Why Physical Therapy for Sexual Health?
Most men don't realize that sexual function depends heavily on the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles control blood flow, support erections, and coordinate the mechanics of ejaculation.When the pelvic floor is weak, tight, or uncoordinated, whether from surgery, aging, injury, or chronic tension, sexual function suffers; pills address the symptom, not the cause. Physical therapy addresses the root of the problem.
Our approach is simple; combining pelvic floor rehabilitation, manual therapy, and advanced treatments like Shockwave Regenerative Therapy to restore function naturally; without medications or invasive procedures.
This isn't talked about enough, but it should be. Sexual health is health. And it's absolutely treatable.
Conditions We Treat
Our men's sexual health physical therapy addresses these common concerns.
Difficulty achieving or maintaining erections. PT strengthens pelvic floor muscles, improves blood flow, and addresses the underlying causes, not just the symptoms.
Discomfort during arousal, erection, or orgasm often stems from tight pelvic floor muscles, trigger points, or scar tissue. Manual therapy can provide relief.
Dysfunction after prostate surgery is common but treatable. Early intervention with pelvic floor PT and penile rehabilitation improves outcomes.
Often linked to pelvic floor tension or poor muscle coordination. PT teaches control techniques and addresses the muscular component.
Penile curvature from scar tissue can cause pain and erectile issues. PT and shockwave therapy can help reduce plaque and improve function.
Pain in the pelvis, perineum, or genitals that interferes with sexual activity. Often muscular in origin and highly responsive to PT.
How Physical Therapy Improves Sexual Function
Understanding the mechanics helps you see why PT works.
Blood Flow
Erections depend on blood flow. Pelvic floor muscle function and shockwave therapy both improve circulation to the penis, supporting stronger, more sustainable erections.
Muscle Strength & Control
The ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus muscles help maintain rigidity during erection. Targeted strengthening improves erectile quality and ejaculatory control.
Release Tension
Chronic pelvic tension restricts blood flow and causes pain. Manual therapy releases trigger points and restores normal muscle function, relieving pain and improving sensation.
Advanced Treatment: Shockwave + EMTT Therapy
We understand this is a sensitive topic. Our approach prioritizes your comfort and privacy at every step. Here's what treatment looks like.
Non-Invasive Option for ED
Low-intensity shockwave therapy (Li-SWT) uses acoustic waves to stimulate blood vessel growth and improve circulation in the penis. It's FDA-cleared, painless, and requires no downtime.
Combined with Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT), which stimulates cellular regeneration, these treatments offer a powerful non-pharmaceutical option for men who want to address ED at its source.

What Our Clients Say
H.S.
“Allison is the most skilled PT that I have been treated by in a long time. She told me about a ligament "Uranus" problem today that I have never heard of being a PT myself. She also goes the extra mile in never cutting the hour short, in sending clarifying emails afterwards, in keeping her hands on me truly treating and not just talking and documenting the session afterwards mot during our time!!”
