Pelvic floor health issues affect millions of women and men. Pelvic floor dysfunction often begins silently in the muscle and structural system that supports the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor muscles span the bottom of the pelvis and support the pelvic organs including the uterus in women and the bowel and bladder in women and men. The pelvic floor muscles work in combination with the abdominal, back and hip muscles to stabilize the hips and lumbar spine and play an important role in optimal function.
