What is pelvic floor therapy?

Pelvic floor therapy uses a variety of treatment options that include:

Diagnoses that can be treated with pelvic rehab include:

Postpartum pelvic pain and incontinence symptoms do not need to be ignored. Pelvic floor therapy can help improve function while decreasing pain.
