Lower back or hip discomfort often gets linked to posture, muscle strain, or long hours of sitting. However, another factor that sometimes goes unnoticed is the role of the pelvic floor.
Pelvic health often stays in the background of everyday conversations, yet it plays a major role in how our bodies function. The muscles around the pelvic floor support the bladder, the bowel, and reproductive organs, helping control movement, stability, and comfort in daily life.
