Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy in Annapolis MD

Integrative Medicine Annapolis MD Pelvic Floor

The pelvic floor refers to the muscles that support your reproductive and urinary tract, including your bladder, uterus, and rectum. These muscles attach to your pelvis, tailbone, and sacrum. In addition to providing support, they also help you control bladder and bowel function. When these muscles aren't working properly, they can cause pain and other symptoms that interfere with daily functioning. Physical therapy in Annapolis MD can help ease pain and associated symptoms, and get you back to normal functioning.
