Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction can cause a variety of symptoms, including bladder and bowel leakage, constipation, pelvic pain, prolapse, back pain, and hip pain. To address these issues and begin the healing process, it’s essential to retrain the dysfunctional muscle patterns in the pelvic floor and core.
One effective tool used in pelvic floor physical therapy is rehabilitative ultrasound imaging. This non-invasive technique provides a real-time visual of your muscles, helping improve motor patterns and coordination for optimal results. It’s safe, with no risks to the patient, and offers valuable biofeedback to guide your recovery.
How Rehabilitative Ultrasound Imaging Helps:
This tool is used to visualize and retrain muscles in the abdominal, pelvic floor, diaphragm, and back areas. It’s especially beneficial for:
- Postpartum rehabilitation
- Post-surgical recovery
- Labor and delivery preparation (push prep)
- Urinary incontinence
- Bowel incontinence
- Constipation
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- Back and hip pain
- Sacroiliac joint pain
