WOMEN'S PELVIC HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPY

Did you know?

Did you know that many women might face some common health issues during their lives? Here's the lowdown in a more relaxed way:

  1. Believe it or not, about one in three women might deal with urinary incontinence at some point.

  2. For mums out there, up to half of you might experience pelvic organ or vaginal prolapse.

  3. But even if you haven't had a pregnancy, around 60% might encounter issues like bladder trouble, bowel woes, or pain.

  4. Oh, and chronic pelvic pain? Well, that could affect roughly 20% of women aged 18 to 50.

  5. Eventually, every woman goes through menopause.

Now, here's the thing: Many women go through these things thinking it's just what happens. They might not seek help because they're embarrassed or don't know there are good treatments out there.

But guess what? You don't have to go through it alone! Working with a physiotherapist and sticking to your treatment plan can work wonders. In fact, for more than 70% of women, pelvic floor muscle physiotherapy can improve or even completely fix the issues. So, don't be shy about taking care of yourself!

"WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM A PELVIC HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPIST?"

If you're going through menopause and dealing with things like physical discomfort, sneaky leaks, or need help with pelvic floor muscle strength, I've got your back!

​

After having a baby, many mums worry about those nagging aches and pains, and they often wonder how to get back into their favourite sports without any concerns about their pelvic floor. That's where I come in: by offering you a post-pregnancy body check, which includes checking your posture, biomechanics, tummy muscles, and pelvic floor. This will help you feel confident about how to help your body recover after giving birth.

 

The best way to assess the pelvic floor is through a vaginal examination. I understand that this can make some people feel uncomfortable or anxious. Please know that your comfort is my top priority, and I want to emphasise that any assessment will only happen with your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, and I want you to feel confident that my service is completely confidential and always respectful of your privacy throughout the entire process.

What I offer...

01.

Individualised assessment including examination of the pelvic floor

02.

Pelvic Floor Muscle Training specific to your assessment

03.

Hands on treatments and breathing techniques
