What Is Pelvic Floor Therapy?

Pelvic floor therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy that focuses on strengthening and retraining the muscles that support the bladder, uterus, rectum, and pelvic organs. At American Wellness and Rehab Clinic in Murray, Utah, we offer women-focused pelvic floor therapy to help relieve pain, improve bladder control, and support postpartum recovery.

This therapy is non-invasive and designed to treat a range of issues related to muscle weakness, tension, or dysfunction in the pelvic region. Whether you’re experiencing discomfort after childbirth, urinary leakage, or chronic pelvic pain, our women’s health team offers compassionate, personalized care to help you regain control and confidence.
