This surprises almost everyone.
Your jaw, diaphragm, deep core, and pelvic floor are part of the same pressure system in your body. When one area is tight, guarded, or not moving well, the others often compensate.
That means things like:
• chronic jaw clenching or TMJ
• neck and shoulder tension
• breath holding or shallow breathing
• core weakness or low back pain
can be connected to:
• pelvic pain
• leaking
• pelvic pressure
• pain with intimacy
• postpartum or post-surgical symptoms
Pelvic health isn’t just about the pelvis.
It’s about how your whole body manages pressure, breath, and stability.
At The Well, pelvic health physical therapy looks beyond symptoms and asks why your body is compensating—so we can help it function better, not just “cope.”
If no one has ever explained this connection to you before, you’re not alone.
And you’re not broken.
