Pelvic floor physical therapy focuses on the pelvic floor muscles, which are responsible for a variety of functions. These muscles support the pelvic organs, assist in bowel and bladder control, core stability and strength and they contribute to sexual appreciation. A person might be referred to pelvic floor PT to treat constipation, chronic pelvic pain, painful intercourse, urinary leaking or other difficulties with urination or bowel movements.
