What is the pelvic floor?
The pelvic floor consists of several layers of muscle and closes off the abdominal cavity at the bottom. It is partly responsible for keeping our organs in the right place.
For whom is pelvic floor training useful?
Pelvic floor training is recommended by many doctors today as a preventative and recovery measure, as the pelvic floor is the supporting center of our body and should therefore be present in everyday life. Awareness of the pelvic floor is just as important as strengthening and relaxation in conjunction with posture and breathing.
Treatments are possible for
- Urinary incontinence (stress incontinence, urge incontinence and overactive bladder)
- Fecal incontinence (constipation, haemorrhoids)
- Pregnancy and postnatal recovery
- Hormonal changes such as the menopause
- Prolapse of the uterus, bladder or bowel
- Prostate problems or after prostate surgery
- Back pain, e.g. due to immobility, poor posture or sitting too often
- Difficulty releasing and relaxing the pelvic floor
- Discomfort or pain during sexual activity
- Pain in the pelvis and pelvic floor
A prior medical assessment is important. Our physiotherapists with further training in pelvic floor training treat with a doctor's prescription and specialize in both men and women.
The Alonea pelvic floor trainer (biofeedback) or electrostimulation with the vaginal probe can also be used as support during treatment.
