Effects of Neuromuscular Pelvic Realigning Exercises on Pelvic Floor Muscle Function in Continent SubjectS
Status unconfirmed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Pelvic Floor Muscle Weakness, Stress Urinary Incontinence, Pelvic Asymmetry
In brief
The goal of this research study is to investigate the effect of a new neuromuscular approach for correcting pelvic alignment and improving pelvic floor muscle function. Investigators hypothesized that this approach would be significantly superior than no intervention to improve the ability of pelvic floor muscle contraction, measured by transabdominal sonography as bladder base elevation. Participants will be randomized to the intervention and control groups. while intervention group will receive five supervised sessions of pelvic realigning exercises, the control group will receive no intervention. Bladder base elevation will be measured as an indicator of pelvic floor muscle function, before and after one week intervention in both control and intervention groups.
