The pelvic floor is a fundamental part of the body, yet it often goes unnoticed until issues begin to appear. It is made up of a group of muscles and ligaments that support organs such as the bladder, uterus and rectum. When these muscles are weakened or not functioning properly, they can cause discomfort, incontinence, prolapse and even chronic pelvic pain.
At ClínicaBonaque® in Lorca, we offer specialised pelvic floor physiotherapy treatments, helping improve our patients’ quality of life through advanced, personalised techniques.
Why is the pelvic floor so important?
The pelvic floor plays a crucial role in several key bodily functions:
✔️ Controla la continencia urinaria y fecal. ✔️ Sostiene los órganos pélvicos, evitando prolapsos. ✔️ Contribuye a la estabilidad lumbar y la postura. ✔️ Es clave en la función sexual y reproductiva. ✔️ Tiene un papel esencial en el embarazo y el parto.
When these muscles lose strength or flexibility, dysfunctions may arise that affect daily life and require specialist treatment.
Common pelvic floor issues
Pelvic floor disorders can affect both men and women, and can stem from various causes:
🔹 Urinary and faecal incontinence – Involuntary leakage of urine or difficulty controlling wind or stool 🔹 Pelvic organ prolapse – Descent of the bladder, uterus or rectum due to weakened support 🔹 Sexual dysfunction – Pain during intercourse or reduced sensitivity 🔹 Chronic pelvic pain – Ongoing discomfort in the perineal, lumbar or abdominal area 🔹 Postpartum complications – Muscle weakness following pregnancy and childbirth
These conditions can impact quality of life, but pelvic floor physiotherapy provides an effective way to both prevent and treat them.
