In women, the pelvic floor is comprised of the muscles, ligaments, connective tissues and nerves that support the bladder, uterus, vagina, rectum and small intestines. The muscles of the pelvic floor connect to the pubic bone in front, to the tailbone in the back and to the ischial tuberosities or sitz bones on either side.
When our pelvic floor muscles are unhealthy they can cause be the cause of many problems. Women need to connect and be aware of with these very important muscles and learn how to keep them healthy and strong (yet still relaxed and not in spasm). No other set of voluntary muscles (muscles that we have direct control over) is as important, and yet is so consistently ignored in medicine and in our exercise regimes.
General conditions also treated – Strains / sprains, back injuries, fibromyalgia, chronic pain.
