Spinal dysfunction can be a pain in the butt – literally. When it comes to your pelvic floor, there are muscles, joints, and even nerves in your back that refer to your pelvic floor and can create pain and dysfunction in the pelvis. We have seen many patients who have visited other providers and have been able to reduce some of their pain but have not fully eliminated it. Often, this is because healthcare providers and orthopedic physical therapists don't fully understand the impact spinal dysfunction can have on the pelvic floor.

What if we told you this is because your lower back pain is more likely misdiagnosed pelvic floor dysfunction?

Pelvic floor dysfunction can cause issues such as constipation. Constipation can lead to pushing and straining which leads to pressure on your intervertebral discs to cause radiating pain in your lower back pain.
