盆底物理治疗
Pelvic floor dysfunction is common in both men and women, and it’s especially common after childbirth. Luckily, symptoms are often easy to treat. Our goal at Highpoint Health with Ascension Saint Thomas is to improve your quality of life by easing pelvic pain and discomfort with physical therapy that targets your pelvic floor muscles.
What Is 盆底物理治疗?
Pelvic floor physical therapy is an evidence-based, nonsurgical treatment for pelvic pain and pelvic floor disorders. This specialized therapy aims to relieve symptoms through a series of exercises that can 强度en and re-train your pelvic floor muscles.
The exercises used are based on your symptoms, which will indicate whether you need to relax or 强度en your pelvic floor muscles. Our pelvic health physical therapists are trained specialists in neuromuscular disorders and have received additional training in the anatomy of the pelvic region to provide the best treatment.
Causes of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
Pelvic floor disorders can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
-
-
- 怀孕
- 更年期
- Traumatic injuries to your pelvic area
- 盆腔手术
- 超重
- 老化
- Overuse of your pelvic floor muscles
- Straining too hard due to chronic constipation
- 举重
- 神经损伤
-
基因也有一定作用. Some people are born with weaker muscles and connective tissue, which puts them at higher risk for developing a pelvic floor disorder.
Symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
Symptoms that can be caused by pelvic floor dysfunction include:
-
-
- Frequently needing to go to the bathroom
- Feeling like you have to force out urine or stool
