4. PELVIC FLOOR
EXERCISES
4.1. PELVIC FLOOR
MUSCLES
The “FLOOR” of your pelvis is made up
of layers of muscles that support the
bowel, bladder, urethra and uterus.
These muscles are like a hammock, or
the bottom and sides of a bowl, in
shape. They run from the pubic bone in
the front to the end of the spinal column
(or tail bone) in the back.
The pelvic floor muscles:
•
Assist in supporting the abdominal
and pelvic organs.
•
Work with the abdominal and back
muscles to stabilise and support the
spine.
•
In women, also
o
provide support for the baby
during pregnancy and
o
assist in the birthing process
Pelvic floor muscles are also important
for sexual function in both men and
women:
•
In men, it is important for erectile
function and ejaculation.
•
In women, voluntary contractions
(squeezing) of the pelvic floor
contribute to sexual sensation and
arousal.
However pelvic floor muscles may
become weak. If your pelvic floor
muscles
become
stretched
or
weakened, your pelvic organs may no
longer be fully supported and you may
lose control of your bladder or bowel
movements.
For some women, the pelvic floor
muscles can also become too tight.
This condition is less common, but it
can lead to pelvic pain and make it
difficult for you to empty your bladder or
bowel completely.
