Bloom is more private and convenient than onsite physical therapy. Onsite PT requires patients to travel to and from a clinic, and the investment in travel time is one reason some people do not stick with in-person treatment for long. Bloom is a more convenient and private way of addressing pelvic health from the comfort of your home or when traveling.
