Meditation for Pelvic Floor Patients at Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy
Meditation isn’t just about relaxation—it’s a powerful tool for pelvic health. By combining mindfulness techniques with evidence-based physical therapy, we help patients achieve greater awareness of their pelvic floor muscles, reduce stress, and improve overall wellbeing.
Why Meditation Matters for Pelvic Health
Pelvic dysfunction often involves both physical and emotional factors. Chronic stress, anxiety, and tension can worsen pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, and other symptoms. Meditation targets the mind-body connection, empowering you to manage stress and enhance pelvic floor control.
How Meditation Supports Pelvic Function
- Reduces Stress – Lowers cortisol levels and helps decrease the body’s “fight-or-flight” response.
- Enhances Muscle Awareness – Helps you recognize and release muscle tension in the pelvic floor.
- Improves Relaxation – Cultivates deeper states of calm, easing pain and discomfort.
- Compliments Physical Therapy Exercises – Reinforces the benefits of core and pelvic floor strengthening.
