Women’s Health
Women’s Health and Physio
Women’s health physiotherapy is an area of physiotherapy that focuses on the assessment and management of health conditions that women experience throughout their lifetime, such as incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction following childbirth.
These conditions often go unspoken and are therefore left untreated for long periods of time.
However, the symptoms that you may experience from these conditions are more common than you expect and can be managed with the help of a women’s health physiotherapist.
Some of the conditions we can assist you with include
Pelvic Conditions
- Stress Urinary Incontinence
- Urinary Urgency and Urge Incontinence
- Frequency
- Pelvic Organ Prolapse
- Constipation
- Faecal Incontinence
Postnatal Care
- Pelvic floor muscle training after birth trauma
- Rehabilitation following caesarean section
- Diastasis rectus abdominus
Prenatal Care
- Exercise during pregnancy
- Round Ligament Pain
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Pregnancy-related Pelvic Girdle Pain
- Pregnancy-related Lower Back Pain
Menopause
- Osteoporosis and bone health
