Pelvic physiotherapy can potentially improve sexual function for individuals experiencing pelvic floor dysfunction or related issues. By addressing underlying factors such as pelvic pain, muscle tightness or weakness, and coordination problems, pelvic physiotherapy may help alleviate discomfort, increase muscle control, and enhance overall pelvic health. However, the effectiveness of pelvic physiotherapy in improving sexual function can vary depending on the individual and the specific factors contributing to their sexual concerns. It is best to consult with a pelvic physiotherapist who can assess your situation and provide personalized recommendations.
It’s crucial to follow your physiotherapist’s recommendations regarding the duration and frequency of your sessions. The decision to conclude therapy should be based on your progress, therapeutic goals, and in consultation with your physiotherapist. Prematurely discontinuing can lead to incomplete recovery or potential relapse. Always discuss your feelings, progress, and any concerns with your therapist to determine the best course of action for your unique situation.
