Why Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy focuses on the muscles, ligaments, and nerves that support your bladder, bowel, and sexual function. When these systems are weak, tight, or uncoordinated, problems like incontinence, urgency, pelvic pain, or prolapse can follow. Our goal is to help you understand what’s happening, ease symptoms, and guide you back to the activities—and the life—you love.

Who We Help

Pelvic floor care is for all genders and ages. Common scenarios include:

  • Pregnancy & Postpartum: leaking with cough/laugh/exercise, painful intercourse, core weakness/diastasis.
  • Peri- & Post-Menopause: urgency, frequency, recurrent leakage, pelvic heaviness.
  • Post-Prostate or Pelvic Surgery: urgency/leakage, control and strength retraining.
  • Persistent Pelvic Pain: vaginismus, dyspareunia, vestibulodynia, endometriosis-related pain, prostatitis-type symptoms.
  • Bowel & Bladder Concerns: constipation/straining, incomplete emptying, nighttime urgency.
  • Athletes & Active Adults: performance-limiting core or pelvic symptoms.

For background reading, see our clinic’s post on Pelvic Pain Awareness.

Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore

Left unaddressed, pelvic floor dysfunction can lead to ongoing pain, social withdrawal, and activity avoidance. Getting help early reduces the risk of chronic issues and speeds recovery.

  • Ongoing pelvic/low-back pain
  • Bladder or bowel leakage/urgency
  • Painful sex
  • Pelvic pressure/heaviness (possible prolapse)
  • Constipation or straining

What to Expect: Your First Visit

Your appointment is private, judgment-free, and paced at your comfort level. We’ll cover:

  • History & Goals: your symptoms, routines, birth/surgery history, training demands.
  • Movement & Breath: core/hip posture, coordination, and pressure management.
  • Pelvic Floor Exam (Optional): internal or external, only with informed consent and only if appropriate.
  • Personalized Plan: education, home exercises, habit strategies, and targeted treatments (e.g., manual therapy, down-training/relaxation, coordination and strength work, graded return to activity).

You’ll leave with a clear plan and follow-up schedule tailored to your goals.

How Treatment Works

Assess → Treat → Support

  1. Assess: Identify drivers (strength, tension, coordination, habits).
  2. Treat: 1-on-1 sessions to retrain the system—breath/core strategies, pelvic floor coordination, manual therapy as needed, and progressive loading.
  3. Support: Simple homework, progress check-ins, and adjustments until you’re confident and independent.

Conditions We Treat

  • Stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence
  • Urinary urgency/frequency, overactive bladder
  • Pelvic organ prolapse (symptom management, activity strategies)
  • Pelvic pain conditions (vaginismus, dyspareunia, vestibulodynia, endometriosis-related pain, prostatitis-type symptoms)
  • Bowel dysfunction (constipation, incomplete emptying, fecal incontinence)
