What is a Male Pelvic Floor?

The male pelvic wall is made up of muscles and ligaments, as well as connective tissue, which form the lower pelvis supporting courses like a hammock. It is essential to control the flow of urine and feces, stabilize your pelvis, and support your spine; pelvic health plays a functional role in the support of other organs and movements, with the coordination and cooperation of abdominal and back muscles helping maintain alignment so that these pelvic organs are normally operated. We focus on keeping those muscles healthy and strong as in-home physiotherapists so that people have healthier pelvises overall.

Common Pelvic Floor Conditions in Men:

Urge Incontinence: Also called overactive bladder, involuntary urinary leakage is followed by a sudden strong urge before the leak happens.

Chronic Pelvic Pain: This is a long-term severe or persistent pain in the pelvic region, generally resulting from muscle tension or nerve irritation.

Erection Problems: Erections are not strong or unable to maintain an erection, sometimes also because of frail pelvic floor hormones.

Fecal Incontinence: Involuntary leakage of stool due to weakened or uncoordinated pelvic floor muscles.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse: The pelvic organs drop or shift downward due to weakened support from the pelvic floor muscles.

Pudendal Neuralgia: Pain or discomfort in the pelvic region caused by compression or irritation of the pudendal nerve.

Bowel Dysfunction: Issues like fecal incontinence, constipation, or difficulty with bowel movements due to pelvic floor muscle weakness or poor coordination.

  • Bladder and Bowel Training: An assessment of your habits, techniques, and training to help aid quicker access to the toilet.
  • Postural Training: Our physiotherapists offer advice on good posture, ergonomic adjustments, and breathing exercises to offload strain from the pelvic floor, with homework specific to your home environment.
  • Perineal Massage: Gentle massage is used in this area of the body to ease muscle tension, increase blood flow, and promote tissue expansion. It’s especially effective when it comes to relieving pain or discomfort during sex or following surgical procedures.
  • Scar Tissue Mobilization: Gentle techniques help to mobilize and soften surgical scars, making them more flexible and reducing pain in physiotherapy. This will free the muscles that had been inhibited around it.
