- Why Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy = Self CareThe pelvic floor is a group of muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues that sit at the bottom of your pelvis—kind of like a supportive hammock. These muscles hold up important organs such as the bladder, rectum, intestines, and (in women) the uterus, and they help control when you go to the bathroom. The pelvic floor is the “floor” of your core system.
