Pelvic floor physiotherapy is a branch of physiotherapy that specializes in optimizing pelvic health across the lifespan.
A pelvic floor physiotherapist can address many conditions including:
- Urinary incontinence
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- Pelvic dysfunction or pain
- Constipation
Pelvic floor physiotherapy is considered first line treatment for pre-natal and post-partum care. This is due to the fact that up to 1 in 3 women will suffer from a pelvic floor problem in their lifetime (ex: urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pain etc).
The goal of pelvic floor physiotherapy is to ensure proper pelvic floor strength/muscle tone, to regulate urinary and anorectal function and to facilitate the support of the pelvic organs. In order to properly assess and treat the pelvic floor, an internal exam is required. If you have any questions or concerns regarding pelvic floor treatments, feel free to call us to arrange a phone consultation with our pelvic physiotherapist.
