Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation
Pelvic floor rehabilitation is a specialized physiotherapy approach that focuses on strengthening and restoring the function of the muscles that support the pelvic organs. These muscles play a important role in bladder and bowel control, sexual function, and core stability. When weakened or overactive, they can lead to discomfort, incontinence, or pelvic pain. At Realign Rehab Clinic in Faridabad, our specialists provide thorough physiotherapy for this condition.
Through safe, personalized care, pelvic floor physiotherapy in Faridabad helps individuals—especially women post-pregnancy or during menopause—regain control, confidence, and comfort in everyday life.

- Assessing muscle strength, tone, and coordination
- Identifying symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction
- Designing a therapy plan to restore balance and function
The treatment is non-invasive and matched to your specific symptoms, whether you're facing urinary leakage, pelvic pain, or postnatal recovery challenges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Pelvic Floor Rehab
Is pelvic floor physiotherapy only for women?
No. While commonly used for women, it can also help men with bladder control issues or post-prostate surgery recovery.
Is internal assessment necessary?
Not always. We only conduct internal exams with your full consent and when it’s relevant to your care. Many treatments can be done externally.
Can pelvic floor therapy treat prolapse?
Yes. While it won’t reverse prolapse, it can noticeably reduces symptoms and improve support.
How long does it take to see results?
Most patients notice improvement in 4–8 sessions, depending on the condition and consistency with exercises.
Is it safe during pregnancy?
Yes. Strengthening the pelvic floor during pregnancy can ease delivery and speed up postpartum recovery.
Will I need special equipment?
No. Most exercises are bodyweight-based and can be done at home. In some cases, we may use biofeedback tools or pelvic trainers.
Can this therapy help with sexual discomfort?
Absolutely. Improving pelvic floor muscle control and reducing tension often improves comfort and sexual function.
Can I continue my regular exercise routine?

"Every patient who walks in with pelvic floor rehabilitation has a different story — different cause, different severity, different daily impact. My job is to understand that story and build a treatment programme around it, not fit them into a template." — Dr. Vaishali Suri (BPT Orthopaedics), Realign Rehab Clinic, Faridabad
