Pelvic floor dysfunction is a common but often overlooked condition that can affect both men and women, significantly impacting quality of life. Understanding the signs and symptoms of this condition is the first step towards getting the help you need. At Ascent Therapy Clinic, our dedicated physical therapists specialize in diagnosing and treating pelvic floor dysfunction, ensuring personalized care for our patients in Littleton and Wheat Ridge.
Pelvic floor dysfunction involves the muscles of the pelvic floor failing to properly relax and coordinate. This can lead to a variety of symptoms, including:
- Urinary issues, such as urgent or frequent need to urinate, painful urination, or incomplete emptying of the bladder.
- Constipation, straining, or pain during bowel movements.
- Discomfort or pain in the pelvic region, genitals, or rectum.
- A heavy feeling in the pelvis or a bulge in the rectum or vagina.
- Sexual dysfunction, including pain during intercourse.
These symptoms can be distressing and may worsen without proper intervention. At Ascent Therapy Clinic, we use a combination of physical therapy techniques to effectively treat and manage pelvic floor dysfunction. Our treatments are designed to strengthen and relax the pelvic floor muscles, improve coordination, and alleviate pain and discomfort.
