What acts as net to hold in your organs and innards, yet is rarely discussed?That’s right – your pelvic floor! Many people are not aware of their pelvic floor, or the extent of issues that can come when it is damaged or injured. Without many conversations around this area of the body, it’s not common knowledge that pelvic floor physical therapy can be life-changing, let alone an option in the first place. When you experience a big injury or things feel out of whack in your body, your medical providers will oftentimes refer you to a physical therapist. Physical therapy gives practical ways for people to rehabilitate from chronic pain, discomfort, or injuries, while naturally bringing more flexibility and movement into these areas – especially the pelvic floor.What Does a Pelvic Floor PT Do?Have you ever had a baby, or are planning on it someday?Do you ever have issues holding in your pee?Do you deal with frequent constipation?Is sex consistently painful for you?If you answered yes to any of these questions, then pelvic floor physical therapy may be for you. About Dr. Bolden-Jeffers:Alicia Bolden-Jeffers, DPT is a native of Baltimore City and currently resides in Owings Mills.
