What is #PelvicFloor #dysfunction? When these muscles become too tight, then they may become a source of #pain 💢 Additionally #tight muscles are problematic because they may not be able to generate enough force to function properly, support the organs & act as part of our core🧵
As we age and in response to #surgery, #childbirth, or #constipation the muscles can also become over lengthened which also makes them weak & unable to function properly 😮🧵
In addition to the length & strength of the muscles being altered, our ability to control the #muscles💪can also become impaired, this is called a loss of motor control. There are many causes to #PFD, but the good news is that #pelvicfloor #physical #therapy can help🙏🏽
