Wondering what pelvic floor physical therapy entails? Have you heard that it's just Kegel exercises? It is so much more. Pelvic floor physical therapy focuses on optimizing the function of the pelvic floor muscles, not just their strength.  There are various causes of pelvic floor muscle dysfunction including pregnancy, childbirth, surgery, trauma, straining, and hormonal changes.  It can also be caused by an orthopedic injury. Anything that creates an imbalance around the pelvis can lead to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction.

Many women are nervous about seeking treatment because they don't know what to expect, or they are fearful of what treatment will be like.  Others are unsure if their condition can be treated by pelvic floor physical therapy.  Life-changing results have come from treatment, and every woman should have the same opportunity.  Empowered Women's Health creates a safe and non-judgmental environment during treatment.
