The Benefits of Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy: Who Can Benefit?
Pelvic floor physiotherapy strengthens and rehabilitates the muscles supporting the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs. These muscles play a vital role in core stability, posture, and overall pelvic health. When they weaken or become dysfunctional, issues like incontinence, pain, or prolapse can arise. Fortunately, physiotherapy offers a non-invasive solution to restore strength and function.
Key Benefits
Better Bladder & Bowel Control: Helps reduce leakage, urgency, and frequency issues, improving confidence and daily comfort.
Pelvic Pain Relief: Eases discomfort from conditions like endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, and chronic pelvic pain syndromes.
Postpartum Recovery: Strengthens muscles after childbirth, aiding healing, reducing discomfort, and supporting overall recovery.
Sexual Health Support: Enhances function, increases comfort, and reduces pain associated with tight or weakened pelvic muscles.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse Management: Strengthens muscles to prevent and control prolapse, reducing discomfort and improving function.
Improved Core Stability & Posture: Supports the spine, enhances stability, and helps prevent lower back pain and related issues.
