What Is Pelvic Floor Therapy?
Pelvic floor therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy that focuses on the muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues supporting the pelvic organs. These structures are crucial for:
Bladder and bowel control
Sexual health and function
Postural stability and core strength
When the pelvic floor muscles are weak, tight, or imbalanced, it can lead to conditions like incontinence, pelvic pain, or organ prolapse. Pelvic floor therapy uses targeted exercises, manual techniques, and education to improve the function of these essential muscles.
Common Pelvic Floor Conditions Treated
Our pelvic floor therapy services address a wide range of conditions, including:
Urinary or fecal incontinence
Pelvic organ prolapse
Chronic pelvic pain
Pain during intercourse
Endometriosis-related pain
Postpartum recovery
Prostate surgery recovery
How Does Pelvic Floor Therapy Work?
Comprehensive Evaluation
Each patient begins with an in-depth evaluation to assess pelvic muscle function, posture, and overall health. Your therapist will listen to your concerns, identify the root cause of your symptoms, and develop a personalized treatment plan.
Individualized Treatment
Treatment plans typically include a combination of:
Targeted Exercises
Improve muscle strength and flexibility with exercises like Kegels, diaphragmatic breathing, and pelvic tilts.
Manual Therapy
Relieve muscle tension and pain with hands-on techniques, such as soft tissue mobilization or trigger point release.
Biofeedback Training
Utilize real-time feedback to ensure proper muscle activation and relaxation.
Lifestyle and Posture Education
Learn practical strategies to prevent strain on your pelvic floor during daily activities.
Why Pelvic Floor Therapy Matters
Pelvic floor dysfunction is more common than many realize. Studies suggest that:
1 in 3 women will experience pelvic floor issues in their lifetime, including incontinence or prolapse.
Up to 25% of men may suffer from symptoms like chronic pelvic pain or incontinence, especially after prostate surgery.
Approximately 50% of postpartum women report symptoms of urinary incontinence, with many experiencing significant improvement through pelvic floor therapy.
Despite these statistics, many individuals delay treatment due to embarrassment or lack of awareness. Pelvic floor therapy offers a discreet, supportive environment where you can take control of your health and improve your quality of life.
