The pelvic floor is a complex web of muscles, fascia, and connective tissue that provides essential support for the bladder, uterus, and rectum. These muscles work in harmony to maintain continence, stabilise posture, facilitate childbirth, and contribute to sexual function.

The pelvic floor is made up of several layers, with key muscles including:

• Levator Ani Group (Pubococcygeus, Puborectalis, Iliococcygeus) – The primary support system for pelvic organs.

• Coccygeus Muscle – Aids in stabilising the sacrum and tailbone.

• Perineal Muscles – Including the deep and superficial transverse perineal muscles, bulbospongiosus, and ischiocavernosus, which support vaginal and urethral function.

When functioning optimally, the pelvic floor maintains organ position, controls pressure distribution within the core, and prevents prolapse and incontinence. However, when scar tissue forms within this region, complications can arise that significantly impact quality of life.
