ABOUT PELVIC HEALTH

The Pelvic Floor is a term used to describe a group of muscles that sit at the bottom of the pelvis. This group of muscles act as a sling, holding up vital organs and aiding in both urethral and rectal control, as well as sexual function. If the muscles in the pelvic floor become weak or too tight, no longer functioning as they should, this is called pelvic floor dysfunction. Pelvic floor physical therapy is specialized treatment aiming to restore mobility and strength of your pelvic floor, as well as return you to your full, pain free function.
