Back Pain & Bloating: Could It Be Your Pelvic Floor?

If you’ve been chasing relief for chronic back pain, bloating, or pelvic pressure without clear answers—it could be your pelvic floor.

These deep stabilizing muscles play a crucial role in how your body supports itself from the inside out.

Weakness, tension, or dysfunction can affect digestion, posture, and even how you breathe.

A pelvic health physiotherapist can assess muscle tone, coordination, and pressure patterns to uncover the root cause. It's not "all in your head"—there’s a physical explanation, and more importantly, there's help.

“A high proportion of pelvic floor muscle dysfunction is present among women with lumbopelvic pain. Specifically, increased pelvic floor muscle pressure-pain sensitivity represented the most frequent characteristic”. (Dufour, et al, 2018)
