We and our clients at Rebalance Physical Therapy know the important role the pelvic floor plays in our daily lives. Recently, we were contacted by the writers at Be Well Philly to talk about the importance of the pelvic floor, symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction, and how to get help for pelvic floor-related health issues.
