Pelvic physical therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy. Evaluation is followed by treatment of the soft tissue, fascia, and bony structures of the pelvis and related areas including the abdomen, hips, back and sacroiliac joints. Pelvic physical therapy will address weakness and tension of the pelvic floor muscles which can contribute to symptoms such as incontinence of urine or stool, urinary urgency or frequency, pelvic organ prolapse or pain with intercourse.
