What is pelvic floor Physical Therapy, and Why Do I Need It?

pelvic floor physical therapy is a specialized form of therapy that targets the muscles, nerves, and connective tissues in your pelvic region. This expert care is designed to alleviate symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction, such as incontinence, pelvic pain, and constipation, and promote overall core stability and well-being.

You may need pelvic floor physical therapy if you're experiencing:

• Incontinence or leakage during exercise or daily activities
• pelvic pain or discomfort during sex, menstruation, or bowel movements
• Constipation, straining, or pain during bowel movements
• Weakness or numbness in the pelvic floor muscles
• Prolapse or bulging of pelvic organs

By addressing these issues, pelvic floor physical therapy can significantly enhance your quality of life, boost confidence, and empower you to take control of your health.
