Women’s Health Physiotherapy focuses on conditions affecting the pelvic floor, bladder, bowel, and reproductive health at all stages of a woman’s life – from pregnancy and postpartum to menopause and beyond. It helps improve function, reduce pain, and enhance quality of life through evidence-based assessment and treatment.
A Women’s Health Physiotherapist can assist with:
Your initial session will include a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle factors. With your consent, a physical examination may be performed — which can include assessment of posture, core muscles, and pelvic floor function. Your physiotherapist will then develop a personalised treatment plan.
Not always. An internal exam can provide valuable information about pelvic floor strength and function, but it is only performed with your full consent. Many assessments and treatments can be done externally if you prefer.
Physiotherapy strengthens and retrains the pelvic floor muscles, improves bladder control, and helps you identify and manage triggers. Tailored exercises and lifestyle strategies can significantly reduce or eliminate leakage.
Yes absolutely. Postnatal physiotherapy can support recovery from vaginal or caesarean birth, help restore core and pelvic floor strength, address pain, and manage issues like prolapse or incontinence. It’s beneficial whether you’re weeks, months, or even years postpartum.
This depends on the condition and your consistency with treatment. Many women notice improvements within a few weeks of starting targeted exercises and therapy. We can monitor your progress and adjust your plan as needed.
Absolutely. Physiotherapy during pregnancy can ease back and pelvic pain, improve posture, teach safe exercise techniques, and prepare your pelvic floor for labour and recovery.
