If you're experiencing any of the following conditions, a pelvic floor physiotherapy assessment could be highly beneficial:

• Urinary incontinence: Leakage when exercising, sneezing, coughing, or laughing.

• Faecal incontinence: Loss of bowel control.

• Pelvic pain: Discomfort in the pelvic region.

• Pain with sexual intercourse: Including conditions like vaginismus.

• Vaginal heaviness: A feeling of pressure or bulging, often associated with pelvic organ prolapse.

• Vaginal dryness: Common during menopause or due to other hormonal changes.

• Pelvic organ prolapse: When pelvic organs drop due to weakened pelvic floor muscles.

• Bladder urgency: The frequent need to urinate, or an overactive bladder.

• Chronic constipation: Difficulty passing stools due to pelvic floor dysfunction.

• Pelvic floor symptoms during menopause: Including dryness, heaviness, or incontinence.

• Endometriosis: Pelvic pain associated with this condition can often be eased through pelvic floor therapy.

• Post-hysterectomy or other gynaecological surgery: To aid in recovery and restore pelvic floor function.

• Overactive/hypertonic pelvic floor: Pelvic muscles that are too tight or overactive, leading to pain and dysfunction.

• Pelvic floor symptoms during pregnancy: Such as leakage or heaviness.

A physiotherapy appointment is perfect for those dealing with movement restrictions, pain, or acute/chronic injury. We’ll begin with a thorough assessment, discussing your injury history, activity levels, current limitations, and personal goals. A detailed physical examination will follow, focusing on range of motion, strength, coordination, and mobility. Based on your needs, we may use hands-on treatment techniques such as soft tissue work, dry needling, and massage to aid recovery. You’ll also receive education on treatment options, the causes of your symptoms, and strategies to prevent future issues. You'll leave with a personalized treatment plan, a tailored return-to-exercise program, and rehabilitation exercises to continue at home or the gym.
