Signs that your pelvic floor isn’t working properly
Pelvic floor disorders do not always present with obvious symptoms. In many cases, symptoms develop gradually and subside without the person realising that there is a solution.
You may need pelvic floor physiotherapy if you notice:
- Urinary leakage when laughing, coughing, running or straining
- A feeling of heaviness, pressure or “something coming down” in the pelvis
- Difficulty tensing or relaxing the pelvic floor muscles
- Pelvic, lower back or abdominal pain of unknown cause
- Discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse
- Failure to recover after pregnancy or childbirth
At Clínica Campaña, we don’t just treat the symptoms; we address the underlying cause affecting your pelvic floor.
How pelvic floor physiotherapy improves body control and stability
- Specific functional assessment: we assess the pelvic muscles, breathing, posture and core control.
- Neuromuscular re-education: we teach you how to activate and relax your pelvic floor correctly.
- Gradual strengthening: exercises tailored to your current fitness level and stage of life.
- Preventing relapses: we improve management to prevent symptoms from returning.
The treatment is aimed at restoring function, not just at ‘doing exercises’.

Frequently asked questions about pelvic floor physiotherapy
What exactly does pelvic floor physiotherapy involve?
Pelvic floor physiotherapy treats functional disorders of the muscles that support the pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus and rectum.
This treatment focuses on improving control, strength, coordination and the ability to relax the pelvic floor when these mechanisms are not functioning properly.
It is not limited to generic exercises, but includes a personalised clinical assessment to identify the root cause of the problem and provide a specific treatment tailored to each individual.
What are the most common symptoms of a weakened or dysfunctional pelvic floor?
The symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction can vary greatly from person to person and do not always all appear at the same time.
The most common symptoms include urine leakage during physical exertion, a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the pelvis, difficulty controlling flatulence, pelvic pain, discomfort during sexual intercourse, or a feeling of loss of internal control.
In many cases, these symptoms resolve themselves over time, but specialist physiotherapy can address the underlying cause and significantly improve quality of life.
Is it normal to experience urine leakage after pregnancy or childbirth?
Urinary incontinence following pregnancy or childbirth is common, but it should not be regarded as normal or permanent.
During pregnancy and childbirth, the pelvic floor undergoes significant changes that can affect its function, particularly if it does not recover properly.
Pelvic floor physiotherapy helps to restore muscle control, improve stability and prevent these issues from persisting or worsening over time.
Is pelvic floor physiotherapy only for women?
No. Although most patients are women, pelvic floor physiotherapy is also very effective for men.
Men may experience conditions such as urinary incontinence, pelvic pain or complications following urological surgery, amongst other problems.
Treatment is always tailored to each person’s anatomy, symptoms and specific needs, regardless of gender.
What does an initial pelvic floor physiotherapy session involve?
The first session focuses on gaining an in-depth understanding of your situation and carrying out a comprehensive functional assessment.
It includes a detailed clinical interview, an analysis of your symptoms, habits and medical history, as well as a specific assessment of your pelvic floor, posture, breathing and muscle control.
Based on this information, the physiotherapist will make a functional diagnosis and clearly explain the most appropriate treatment plan for you.
Is pelvic floor physiotherapy painful or uncomfortable?
No. Pelvic floor treatment should not be painful.
The techniques are always tailored to your comfort, your sensitivity and your limits, and are only used when appropriate.
Furthermore, the entire process is carried out with respect, privacy and informed consent, creating a safe and professional environment.
How long does it take to notice an improvement with pelvic floor physiotherapy?
The time it takes to see an improvement depends on the type of condition, how long the problem has been present, and the patient’s commitment to the treatment.
Many people notice positive changes within the first few sessions, particularly in terms of body awareness and muscle control.
However, full recovery is a gradual process and requires a personalised plan that is adjusted according to the body’s response.
Can I still have pelvic floor physiotherapy even if it’s been years since I gave birth?
Yes. There is no time limit on when you can benefit from pelvic floor physiotherapy.
Even if months or years have passed since giving birth, it is possible to improve pelvic floor function and reduce symptoms such as urinary incontinence or pain.
The treatment is tailored to the person’s current situation, regardless of how much time has passed.
