Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy
What is Pelvic Floor Dysfunction?
Pelvic floor dysfunction refers to a range of issues that may encompass, but are not restricted to, dysfunctions of the pelvic organs including the bladder, bowel, uterus, and prostate, as well as sexual dysfunction, pelvic organ prolapse, and pain in the vaginal, penile, rectal, or pelvic regions.
Aging-Related Pelvic Floor Dysfunction can naturally affect the pelvic floor muscles, connective tissues, and nerves that support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs. Over time, reduced muscle mass, hormonal changes, and cumulative strain can lead to pelvic floor dysfunction.
Congenital pelvic floor dysfunction means that the muscles, connective tissues, or nerves that support the bladder, bowel, and (in females) the uterus/vagina did not develop normally before birth.This can lead to problems with continence, bowel emptying, and pelvic support from childhood onward.
