Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic floor therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy focused on strengthening and relaxing the muscles that support the bladder, bowel and reproductive organs.
It can help alleviate symptoms related to urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, constipation and other issues affecting your day-to-day well-being.
