Pelvic Floor Therapy

Improved bladder control: Pelvic floor therapy can help individuals experiencing urinary incontinence by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles and improving their ability to control the bladder. This can be beneficial for both stress urinary incontinence (leakage during activities such as coughing, sneezing, or exercising) and urge incontinence (strong, sudden urge to urinate).

Enhanced bowel function: Pelvic floor therapy can assist individuals with bowel disorders, such as fecal incontinence or chronic constipation. By improving the strength and coordination of the pelvic floor muscles, it can contribute to better bowel control and regularity.

Relieved pelvic pain: Pelvic floor therapy may help alleviate pelvic pain or discomfort caused by conditions such as pelvic floor muscle spasms, endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, or pelvic organ prolapse. The therapy aims to release tension in the pelvic floor muscles and improve their flexibility, reducing pain symptoms.

Improved sexual function: Pelvic floor therapy can be beneficial for individuals experiencing sexual dysfunction, including pain during intercourse (dyspareunia) or difficulty achieving orgasm. Strengthening and relaxing the pelvic floor muscles can help enhance sexual function, pleasure, and overall sexual well-being.

Enhanced postpartum recovery: Pelvic floor therapy is commonly recommended for women after childbirth to restore and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. It can help address issues such as pelvic floor weakness, urinary incontinence, or pelvic organ prolapse that may arise due to pregnancy and childbirth.

Alleviated pelvic organ prolapse symptoms: Pelvic floor therapy can provide relief for individuals with pelvic organ prolapse, a condition in which the pelvic organs descend or bulge into the vagina. Through targeted exercises and techniques, the therapy can help support the pelvic organs and reduce symptoms like pelvic pressure or discomfort.
