Pelvic Floor Rehab for Women — The Basics
Seeking therapy for your pelvic health issue is a sensitive matter, but one that can vastly change the quality of your life. If you’re considering taking contol of your issue, or if your medical provider recommended pelvic floor rehab for women, it’s because the muscles of your pelvic floor may be contributing to your urinary, gynecological, or gastrointestinal symptoms.
Our clinics specialize in evaluating the neuromusculoskeletal region of the pelvis, restoring function to pathological structures, and teaching women to control these muscles, nerves, and other tissues so you can feel like a natural woman again.
While women’s pelvic issues fall into various categories, each individual woman’s underlying causes are very different and require individualized exercise prescription.
While many healthcare professionals will recommend Kegel exercises for pelvic floor issues, research reveals there is not one exercise that can resolve pelvic floor muscle issues. Sometimes, in cases of hypertonicity or neuro-overactivity, Kegels can make many conditions worse.
The individulalized therapy evaluation and home program offered by You’re In CONTROL! is a great option for resolving pelvic issues.
