Pelvic floor physical therapy is a specialized form of therapy that focuses on strengthening and rehabilitating the muscles of the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, uterus, and rectum and play a crucial role in functions such as controlling urination and bowel movements, sexual function, and core stability. Pelvic floor physical therapy involves exercises, manual techniques, and education to address issues like incontinence, pelvic pain, pelvic organ prolapse, and postpartum recovery. It is typically performed by physical therapists who have specialized training and expertise in pelvic floor dysfunction.
