At Elevate615, we specialize in Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy—helping women strengthen, relax, and properly coordinate the muscles that form the foundation of their core. Whether you are pregnant, recovering postpartum, or experiencing pelvic health challenges, our Doctors of Physical Therapy in Franklin, TN provide compassionate, evidence-based care to restore confidence and function.
What Is the Pelvic Floor?
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that sit at the base of the pelvis. These muscles play a vital role in core stability, bladder and bowel control, sexual health, and overall mobility. When they are too weak, too tight, or not functioning in sync, problems can arise—from pain to incontinence to difficulty returning to exercise.
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy can help you learn how to strengthen, relax, or coordinate your pelvic floor muscles. Treatment may include education, guided exercise, breathwork, manual therapy, and when appropriate, internal vaginal exams performed by a certified pelvic health therapist. Not every patient requires internal work, but it can be an important part of assessment and treatment when indicated.
