FAQs

If you have any questions about pelvic floor physiotherapy, use our chat box, or contact us.

 

  • The pelvic floor is made up of layers of muscles which work to support our abdominal and pelvic organs, help in bladder, bowel, and sexual function, and make up part of our “core”. A pelvic floor (or pelvic health) physiotherapist is a Registered Physiotherapist with specialized training to treat these specific muscles.

  • Similar to all our services, expect our therapists to listen, ask questions and work collaboratively with you. In addition to discussing your challenges, we create a plan that gets you closer to your goals - whatever they may be.

    Your session will include both an external and internal exam as well as a lesson in anatomy 101 so you know exactly what’s going on, where and why.

  • Pelvic health physiotherapy is completely safe during pregnancy. In fact, many women often find relief and reassurance post-treatment session.

  • Seeing a pelvic health physiotherapist after your first trimester (12 weeks) of pregnancy is ideal. At this stage, prenatal pelvic health physiotherapy will focus on strengthening the pelvic floor muscles to prevent conditions such as incontinence, pelvic pain and pelvic prolapse and prepare the body for labour and delivery including optimal birthing and pushing strategies.

  • Having a baby changes the way your body feels and functions. After your “six week clearance” our pelvic health physiotherapists will work with you to encourage healing and guide you back to activity. Under our care, we will help you restore your core and strengthen your body. Our pelvic health physiotherapists will look for things like diastasis recti, scar tissue sensitivity, prolapse, and pelvic dysfunction.
