What is Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy involves treatment by a specialized therapist to help with the dysfunction of pelvic floor muscles. Pelvic floor muscles help to support the urinary and reproductive tracts in place. Any dysfunction in the pelvic floor may cause pain, discomfort and urinary incontinence.

The Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Calgary

The pelvic floor keeps your bladder in place in the front and the vagina and rectum in the back. Your uterus is held in place at the top of the pelvic floor by muscles, tendons, and connective tissue. In men, the pelvic floor helps keep the bowels, bladder, urethra, and rectum in place. Pelvic floor muscles attach to your tailbone and pubic bone. If the muscles in the pelvic floor are weak or don’t work as they should, this is called pelvic floor dysfunction.
