Pelvicology is the study and treatment of pelvic disorders and conditions. The pelvic floor muscles are subject to continuous strain throughout our lifespan, from hormonal changes to decline in muscle strength due to age and inactivity.  Pelvic Floor dysfunction may lead to symptoms during movement, as well as restrictions in the ability to stay physically active.  Athletes such as runners and cyclists can have unique pelvic floor muscle issues. In addition, the patterns of overuse and misuse characterized by chronic and acute pain often affect the low back and pelvic regions.
