Pelvic floor physioterapy Mallorca

What is pelvic floor physiotherapy?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is a specialty within physical therapy that focuses on the assessment, treatment, and prevention of dysfunctions affecting the pelvic floor musculature and structures. This group of muscles and tissues supports organs such as the bladder, uterus, and rectum, and plays a fundamental role in functions like urinary and fecal continence, sexual function, and lumbopelvic stability.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is indicated in cases of incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, postpartum recovery, childbirth preparation, or following urogynecological and prostate surgeries. Through an individualized functional assessment, the specialized physiotherapist designs a personalized treatment plan that may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, biofeedback, neuromodulation, and muscle re-education techniques.

At our clinic in Palma de Mallorca, the approach is carried out by specialized pelvic floor physiotherapists with specific training and clinical experience, guaranteeing a safe treatment based on scientific evidence and tailored to each patient.

Which pathologies do we treat with pelvic floor physiotherapy at Imar Palma de Mallorca?

01.

Postpartum pelvic floor physiotherapy in Palma de Mallorca

Following pregnancy and childbirth, the pelvic musculature may present weakness, pain, or loss of tone. Postpartum pelvic floor physiotherapy allows for recovering muscle function, improving continence, and preventing prolapse, facilitating a safe and progressive recovery.

02.

Prenatal pelvic floor physiotherapy in Palma

During pregnancy, preparing the pelvic floor helps reduce the risk of injuries during childbirth and promotes a faster subsequent recovery. Through specific mobility, body awareness, and muscle control techniques, we prepare the musculature to face childbirth with greater confidence.

03.

Treatment of urinary and fecal incontinence

Urinary incontinence is one of the most frequent pelvic floor dysfunctions. Through personalized muscle re-education programs, electrostimulation, and biofeedback, we work to regain control and improve the patient’s quality of life. In complex cases, we collaborate in a coordinated manner with the orthopedics department for a comprehensive approach.

04.

Rehabilitation of chronic pelvic pain

Pelvic pain can have a muscular, nervous, or myofascial origin. Pelvic floor physiotherapy allows for identifying the source of the dysfunction and applying specific techniques to decrease muscle tension, improve mobility, and restore functionality.

What advantages does visiting specialized pelvic floor physiotherapists offer?

Urinary and fecal incontinence

Pelvic floor physiotherapy allows for strengthening the musculature responsible for urinary and anal control through personalized muscle re-education programs, biofeedback, and functional training. This approach improves continence, reduces involuntary leakage, and, in many cases, avoids pharmacological treatments or surgical interventions, offering a conservative and effective solution based on scientific evidence.

Postpartum recovery

Postpartum pelvic floor physiotherapy helps recover muscle tone, improve lumbopelvic stability, and prevent complications such as prolapse or late-onset incontinence. Individualized treatment accelerates functional recovery and allows for a safe and progressive return to physical and sports activities."

Chronic pelvic pain

In cases of persistent pelvic pain, specialized physiotherapy identifies the muscular, myofascial, or neuromuscular origin of the dysfunction. Through specific manual techniques and targeted therapeutic exercises, hypertonia is reduced, tissue mobility is improved, and symptoms decrease, enhancing the patient's quality of life.

Mild and moderate prolapse

Pelvic floor rehabilitation strengthens the support structures that hold the pelvic organs. In early or moderate stages, this treatment can improve symptoms, slow the progression of the prolapse, and delay the need for surgery, always prioritizing a conservative approach.

Childbirth preparation

Prenatal pelvic floor physiotherapy improves perineal elasticity and muscle control, promoting a more efficient delivery and reducing the risk of tears. Additionally, it optimizes subsequent recovery, minimizing complications in the immediate postpartum period.

The goal is to work progressively and safely, minimizing discomfort and promoting a comfortable recovery.

How long does the treatment last, and when are results noticed?

The duration of the treatment depends on the type of dysfunction and the patient’s initial condition. In many cases, improvements begin to be noticed after the first few sessions, especially in issues involving mild incontinence or postpartum recovery.

The therapeutic plan usually extends over several weeks, combining in-clinic sessions with personalized home exercises.

What is the preparation like before a pelvic physiotherapy session?

Before starting treatment, a detailed clinical history is taken, where medical history, previous surgeries, and current symptoms are reviewed. Specific preparation is not usually required, although wearing comfortable clothing is recommended.

In some cases, it may be necessary to complement the assessment with diagnostic tests indicated by the specialist.

What are recovery and follow-up like after treatment?

Recovery is progressive and depends on the degree of initial dysfunction. After each session, the patient can return to their usual activity, following the recommendations indicated by the physiotherapist.
