Peeing. Pelvic Pain. Prolapse. The “P’s” that are very common, although NOT normal. Pelvic health physical therapy addresses daily functions in the bathroom, the bedroom and beyond. Your pelvic floor is the bottom of your pelvic region, made up of 3 layers of muscles and ligaments that support internal organs.

Movement of the hips, pelvis and spine help to turn “on” your pelvic floor like a switch. Conversely, stiffness or tightness in any of the three planes of motion our body moves can begin to cause weakness, tightness, and pain associated with turning “off” the core floor. Many times dysfunction of this area impacts bladder and bowel health as well as sexual function. Are you a kegel expert? You are only addressing about 25% of the problem.

Women’s Health Physical Therapy is for women of ALL ages and situations including pregnancy, post-partum, menopause and beyond.
