The pelvic floor is more than just the muscles that control your bladder! It is also involved in bowel control, birthing, sex and core stability. When things go wrong, the symptoms show up in many different ways. Below is a summary of issues pelvic floor therapists can treat.
- Stress incontinence (leak with sneezing / jumping etc)
- Over active bladder (bladder frequency and urgency)
- Difficulty peeing (bladder retention)
- Pregnancy/postpartum pain/weakness
- Pelvic floor pain
