Physiotherapists will manually examine muscles of the pelvic floor both externally and internally, palpating to locate tender points, tenderness, tightness, trigger points of pain and guiding patients to manually tighten or loosen muscles to assess tone and function. Also, to isolate and assess strength of the pelvic floor and core muscles to find the cause of the pelvic floor dysfunction and chronic back issues which are influenced by pelvic floor muscles.
