Pelvic Heath Physiotherapy
Deals with urinary/fecal incontinence, as well as other conditions related to pelvic pain. Pelvic floor muscles are attached to the front, back and sides of the pelvic bone and sacrum. They support the bladder, uterus, prostate and rectum. In women, they also wrap around urethra, rectum, and vagina. The smooth contraction and relaxation of these muscles is essential for normal urination, bowel moments and in women, sexual intercourse.
If you experience a problem with any of these, chances are your muscles are not working in an ideal manner. An internal and external examination is needed to determine the exact cause of the problem. Once the cause is determines, your physiotherapist can direct you to the best course of action.
