Pelvic floor dysfunction is a common issue among women of all ages. Problems can include prolapse, urinary incontinence, painful sex or pain in the vaginal area, and other problems.

Our outpatient pelvic floor therapy program helps patients with bladder and bowel problems, pelvic pain, and surgery recovery at Hunt Regional Medical Center Greenville.

Led by an all-female staff, our compassionate, certified therapists offer personalized rehabilitation. Your gynecologist, primary care provider, urologist, or other specialist may recommend therapy to help improve the strength and function of pelvic floor muscles in order to relieve pain, weakness, or tightness.

Our therapists help patients understand how the pelvic muscles operate. They also perform an optional internal exam to help identify problematic areas and monitor progress.

Pelvic dysfunction can arise from childbirth or trauma, aging and hormone changes, prior surgery or injury, endometriosis, cancer, or other illnesses.

There are several disorders and conditions that can cause pelvic problems. Examples include:

• Incontinence stress/urge
