What is Pelvic Health Physiotherapy?
The pelvis is an important and complex region that traditionally does not get the medical attention that it deserves. Let’s rectify that together.
Urinary Incontinence (Bladder Leaking)
Bladder leaking effects 30-50% of women, yet is underreported and undertreated. There ARE things you can do to help control your bladder and live your life, without leaking.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Heaviness, pressure, a feeling of ‘falling out’, ‘a stuck tampon’, bulging or dragging are common sensations felt with a pelvic organ prolapse. Let’s uncover the truth about what is going on and ways to manage your symptoms.
Pessaries
Pessaries are silicone devices that go into the vagina to help support pelvic organ prolapse or help with stress urinary incontinence (bladder leaking). Find out more about how these ‘sports bras for the organs’ work and whether one may be right for you.
Menopause
Menopause occurs at 1 year after your last menstrual cycle. This can bring physical and emotional changes that may or may not be expected. There are ways to ease this process and bolster your health going forward.
