How Does Men’s Health
Assessment & Treatment Help?

If you are dealing with pelvic floor issues and are visiting a male pelvic floor physical therapist for the first time, here’s what you can expect. At first, the professional would question a few things related to your health. Through the questions, the therapist is likely to understand the cause of the pelvic floor issue. 

While talking about your health, don’t forget to mention the history of any condition. That’s because such facts reveal a lot more about the condition of a person than any test. 

Once the questioning has been done, the therapist will then move to examine a few things, like hips, pelvic muscle, and lumbar spine. Generally, the examinations are external, but sometimes, the therapist needs to conduct direct palpation of the perineum to understand health better. 

Through internal examination, physiotherapists can easily determine trigger points that are likely to cause pelvic floor issues. Common internal examinations include palpation through anus and ultrasound. 

Once the therapist has conducted both examinations, then he moves towards treatment. Most of the time, you can expect hands-on manual therapy treatment, pelvic floor exercise, specialized breathing, and specific hip or spine exercise in a male pelvic floor rehab center.
