PELVIC FLOOR REHABILITATION

​Pelvic floor dysfunction encompasses a wide range of issues that can include pelvic pain, abdominal pain, buttock pain, urinary dysfunction, fecal dysfunction, and/or sexual dysfunction. Symptoms can range from pain that occurs with specific activities to pain that occurs all day; and can sometimes include incontinence, or it's opposite, retention. These issues can arise at any time in the lifespan and affect both men and women; unfortunately no one is immune. Accurate assessment of the core issue affecting the pelvic floor is key to determining the appropriate treatment plan, improving the pelvic floor muscle's function and health, and therefore your quality of life.
