What is the pelvic floor?

 Consider your pelvic floor to be a muscular hammock at the bottom of your pelvis that your pelvic organs rest upon. Though we often refer to your pelvic floor as just a group of muscles, it contains blood vessels, fatty tissue, ligaments, tendons, nerves and fascia - all of which can play significant roles in your pelvic health. There are three layers to your pelvic floor muscles including the superficial, middle, and deepest layers. Pelvic floor physical therapists are able to treat pelvic floor dysfunctions through an orthopedic lens, meaning we believe in the importance of assessing the whole body as it relates to the pelvic floor.
