ABSTRACT
I. INTRODUCTION Pelvic floor rehabilitation is an increasingly popular, noninvasive approach in the treatment of sphincteric dysfunction, its objectives being the education of the patient and the functional reeducation of the pelvic floor unit. It has been established that the position and relationships between the urinary sphincter, the connective tissue, and the striated musculature of the pelvic floor are important, and that pelvic floor muscle contractility and tone will affect sphincteric activity and urethral closure (1-3).
