The hips and the pelvic floor: friends or foes

Your poor pelvic floor gets all the blame when thinking about incontinence or prolapse. “My pelvic floor muscles are dead” or “I have no pelvic floor” are things I hear an awful lot in the clinic. While your pelvic floor may be weak it has NOT left your body or disintegrated into nothing. It is there, surrounded by you hip and core muscles, which need attention too.
