What is the pelvic floor?
The pelvic floor consists of several muscle layers and closes the abdominal cavity downwards. It is partly responsible for keeping our organs in the right place.
For whom is pelvic floor training useful?
Today, pelvic floor training is recommended by many doctors as a preventive and also as a recovery measure, since the pelvic floor is the supporting center of our body and should therefore be present in everyday life. The awareness of the pelvic floor is just as central as the strengthening and relaxation in connection with posture and breathing.
If you suffer from urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, back pain, difficulty releasing the pelvic floor, or sexual discomfort, pelvic floor therapy can help.
The pelvic floor is especially important in the context of pregnancy and childbirth, whether it is releasing the pelvic floor for childbirth or specifically building up the pelvic floor after childbirth.
It is also important to integrate targeted pelvic floor therapy for menopausal symptoms or organ prolapse.
For men with prostate complaints or after prostate surgery, pelvic floor training is very central to achieving good continence.
It is important to have a medical assessment beforehand. Our physiotherapists with further training in pelvic floor training treat with a doctor's prescription and are specialized for women and men.
