Pelvic health physiotherapy focuses on assessing and treating conditions related to the pelvic floor, such as incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, and sexual dysfunction. It’s beneficial for individuals at all life stages, including pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and beyond.
We currently provide pelvic health physiotherapy for women and people who are assigned female at birth (AFAB). However, pelvic health physiotherapy can benefit anyone with a pelvis, regardless of gender identity. If our service doesn’t fully meet your needs, we’re happy to help connect you with other specialised providers.
No, a referral is not required. However, if you’ve had surgery or received a recommendation to see a pelvic health physiotherapist, providing a letter from your consultant is helpful.
We conduct a thorough subjective assessment, discussing your main concerns, medical history, bladder and bowel habits, sexual function, and lifestyle factors. With your informed consent, internal vaginal and/or rectal examinations may be performed to assess pelvic floor muscle function; however, this is always optional. The objective assessment may also include observing posture, pelvic alignment, muscle strength and coordination, and movement patterns to develop a tailored treatment plan.
