Its primary function is to support the pelvic organs, including the bladder, intestines, uterus (in females), and rectum, for proper position and function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.physio-pedia.com\/An_Overview_of_Physiotherapy_Assessment_and_Treatment_of_the_Pelvic_Floor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pelvic floor physical therapy<\/a> (PFPT) is a specialized form of physical therapy that focuses on strengthening and restoring the pelvic floor&#8217;s function. The muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues support the pelvic organs, aiding in bladder and bowel control, and contribute to sexual function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PFPT is not just for women; men face pelvic floor disorders and complications, too. The health and function of the pelvic floor are vital for overall well-being but are often overlooked until problems or pain arise. Risk factors and causes of pelvic pain include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Childbirth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aging<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Surgery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pressure on the Pelvic floor (i.e., Heavy lifting, chronic coughing, chronic constipation)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Obesity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mainstreetpt.net\/sternen-physical-therapy\/specialized-programs\/pelvic-health\/\">Pelvic floor therapy<\/a><\/strong> for pain relief and function is particularly effective in treating a range of conditions, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Incontinence (urinary or fecal)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Constipation or bowel disorders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pelvic organ prolapse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chronic pelvic pain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Postpartum recovery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pain during intercourse<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PFPT Treatments for Common Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.choosept.com\/guide\/physical-therapy-guide-incontinence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Urinary Incontinence<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine, indicating a loss of bladder control that affects daily activities of life. For this condition, PFPT focuses on improving the patient\u2019s ability to contract and relax their pelvic floor muscles. We may also incorporate bladder training techniques to gradually increase the interval between bathroom breaks to improve bladder capacity and control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chronic Pelvic Pain<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Pelvic pain is generally felt in the lower abdomen, pelvis, or perineum, and it becomes chronic when it is felt for 12 weeks or more. It can lead to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Difficulty sitting or standing for long periods of time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limitations moving the hips and lower back<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interruptions when walking, sleeping, or regular daily activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We use a combination of education and targeted exercises to treat this condition. By learning how to identify affected pelvic floor muscles, patients can focus on proper use and care to prevent injury or pelvic pain from returning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pelvic Organ Prolapse<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a condition where one or more of the pelvic organs drops (prolapse) from its normal place in the lower belly and pushes against the walls of the vagina. This happens when the muscles and tissues supporting the pelvic organs become weak or loose. PFPT treatment focuses on targeted exercises, like <strong>short holds<\/strong> and <strong>long holds<\/strong>, to strengthen the pelvic muscles using contract and release techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Education is an essential part of rehabilitation for PFPT. We work with our patients on at-home exercises and monitoring that complements the work we do inside the clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We\u2019re Here to Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team is specially trained in pelvic floor physical therapy and has the experience you need for improvement.
