Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy for Women

A feeling of heaviness, dragging, or pressure in the pelvic region, often described as something “falling out” or bulging. This can occur when the pelvic floor muscles are not providing enough support to the pelvic organs.

Pain during penetration or sexual activity that may feel like tightness, burning, or sharp discomfort. This can be associated with involuntary muscle guarding, tissue sensitivity, or pelvic floor dysfunction involving conditions such as Vaginismus, Dyspareunia, or Vestibulodynia.

Ongoing discomfort or aching in the pelvic region, lower abdomen, or tailbone that may worsen with sitting, movement, or prolonged activity. This is often related to muscle tension, nerve irritation, or movement imbalances in the pelvic floor and surrounding structures.

Pelvic pain and muscle tightness associated with Endometriosis. The pelvic floor often becomes overactive in response to chronic pain, contributing to tension, pain with movement, and functional limitations.

Difficulty with bowel movements such as straining, infrequent stools, or a sudden urgent need to go. These symptoms can be related to pelvic floor coordination issues that affect how the muscles relax and contract during elimination.

Difficulty engaging core and pelvic floor muscles properly during movement, often leading to leaking, poor stability, or discomfort with workouts. This can limit performance and increase the risk of compensatory strain in other areas of the body.
