What this can help with
- Pelvic pain or muscle guarding
- Pain with intimacy or penetration
- Urinary urgency, frequency, or leaking
- Constipation or bowel symptoms
- Pre-surgical pelvic health preparation
- Post-surgical mobility, scar, or dilation support when appropriate

Specific care starts with being respected.
Gender-affirming pelvic physical therapy supports pelvic floor function, pain, tissue mobility, breathing, bowel and bladder symptoms, and movement. Internal work is never required to begin and is only considered when it fits your goals and consent.
Pelvic healthcare can feel difficult to access when providers make assumptions, skip consent, or do not understand gender-affirming goals. Boon is built around careful language, clear options, and the right to move at your pace.
Progress may look like less guarding, more comfort with daily life or intimacy, better urinary or bowel control, clearer post-surgical confidence, and a care plan that feels understandable.
Questions patients ask
Do I have to have an internal exam?
No. Internal assessment is never required to begin care and is only discussed when clinically relevant, clearly explained, and fully consented.
Can you help after gender-affirming surgery?
In many cases, pelvic physical therapy can support mobility, scar comfort, pelvic floor function, bladder or bowel symptoms, and confidence after surgery, while respecting your surgeon's precautions.
Is this care only for surgical patients?
No. Pelvic health support can be appropriate whether or not surgery is part of your history or future plans.
