pelvic floor therapist
A pelvic floor therapist is a healthcare professional who specializes in treating conditions related to the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles support the bladder, uterus, and rectum, and can become weak or tight due to various factors such as pregnancy, childbirth, surgery, or aging. The therapist uses techniques like exercises, manual therapy, and education to help patients improve their pelvic health.
Patients may seek the help of a pelvic floor therapist for issues like urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, or sexual dysfunction. Treatment plans are tailored to individual needs and may include strengthening exercises, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle modifications to promote overall pelvic health.
