It is necessary to conduct a functional assessment of it.<\/p>\n<h2>First Visit: Functional Assessment<\/h2>\n<p>This is a rhomboid area, present in both men and women, that closes down the pelvis, surrounding and supporting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the urethra<\/li>\n<li>the bladder<\/li>\n<li>the vagina<\/li>\n<li>the uterus<\/li>\n<li>the rectum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Under physiological conditions it helps to keep the pelvic organs (uterus, vagina, bladder, urethra, rectum) in place by supporting them both in normal daily activities (walking, jumping, lifting bags\/weights) and in case of sudden changes in intra-abdominal pressure (sneezing, coughing, laughing). When its proper functioning in all these situations is compromised, that is when symptoms may occur.<\/p>\n<p>During the first visit, a functional assessment is performed, during which:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the patient&#8217;s data are collected, to identify any risk factors that may affect the health status of the pelvic floor<\/li>\n<li>the pelvic floor is observed to understand how it behaves in relation to movement, breathing and posture<\/li>\n<li>the perineal musculature and its health status is assessed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Based on the findings, a decision will be made as to whether it is appropriate to start a rehabilitation course and how to possibly set up therapy.<\/p>\n<h2>Pelvic floor rehabilitation visits<\/h2>\n<p>Pelvic floor rehabilitation sessions, lasting about 45 minutes to 1 hour, can make use of various techniques, both instrumental and non-instrumental.<\/p>\n<p>As the scientific literature tells us, the first approach should always start with non-instrumental techniques, such as lifestyle correction and the use of <strong>physiokinesitherapy<\/strong>: proprioception, breathing, contraction and relaxation exercises of the pelvic floor, which allow us to become aware of this area, train it, tone it or, on the contrary, relax it if excessively contracted.<\/p>\n<p>Should these techniques prove insufficient, we can also make use of instrumental therapies, such as:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Electrostimulation<\/strong>: through the use of vaginal or anal probes that emit electrical pulses, the pelvic floor muscles are stimulated to increase contractile capacity, or by using<br \/>\ndifferent electrical frequencies, we can induce their relaxation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Biofeedback<\/strong>: with visual aid of a screen, we help the patient locate the perineal muscles and operate them correctly, then contract and relax the muscles properly.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to book an appointment and evaluate a pelvic floor rehabilitation course here in MediClinic, call us at 0429 772906 or email us at info@mediclinic.it .<\/p>\n<p>We are waiting for you.<\/p>\n<p>Translated with www.DeepL.com\/Translator (free version)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before embarking on a rehabilitation course, one needs to know the health status of the pelvic floor, and therefore it is necessary to conduct a functional assessment of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2311,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.1 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Structuring a pelvic floor rehabilitation pathway? - MediClinic<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Before rehabilitation, you need to know the health status of your pelvic floor.
