Pelvic Floor Therapy in NYC
The pelvic floor is a truly incredible system. Three primary roles of the female pelvic floor muscles are to support the organs of the pelvic floor (bladder, uterus, and rectum), maintain bladder and bowel continence, and assist in sexual function. When the pelvic floor muscles operate smoothly, most women don’t think twice about this region of their body.
Bladder Disfunction, Bowel Disfunction and Sexual Disfunction
However, things don’t always operate as smoothly as we would like. For several reasons, dysfunction may develop. The conditions that impact the pelvic floor can be broadly subdivided into UNDERACTIVE and OVERACTIVE pelvic floor dysfunction. Underactive dysfunction includes: pregnancy, postpartum, aging related changes and muscle weakness. These often manifest as bladder incontinence, fecal incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse (descent). Overactive dysfunction is associated with tightness of the pelvic floor muscles, which often manifests as urinary urgency, urinary frequency, constipation, pain with prolonged sitting, coccydynia (tail bone pain), chronic pelvic pain, and sexual dysfunction.
Many women don’t know where to turn when they experience these symptoms. Sometimes, they may even feel too embarrassed to discuss them with their physician. MANY WOMEN SUFFER IN SILENCE FAR TOO LONG.
