Pelvic floor muscles are a group of muscles that attach to the front, back and sides of the pelvic bone and sacrum. This area also supports your uterus, bladder and sexual organs. These structures work together and stabilize the pelvis, sacrum and hip joints playing an important role in urination, bowel movements, childbirth, and sexual function.
Our pelvic floor physiotherapist assesses the integrity, strength, and function of these muscles. We can assess your condition and provide treatments to restore or strengthen function.
