Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist
"Pelvic floor conditions and health concerns are common, and often neglected. I can help you resolve your symptoms and concerns, in a comfortable and effective way, so you can get back to enjoying life and the activities you love."
Conditions We Can Help With:
Chronic Pelvic Pain
Pain in the pelvis and pelvic region is treatable. Regardless of the cause of your pain, we can conduct a thorough assessment and provide you with treatment and strategies to eliminate, reduce or manage your pain.
Urinary Incontinence
Incontinence is common and can be, at the very least, embarassing and annoying. You don't have to just accept incontinence and learn to live with it. We have multiple methods to successfully treat incontinence, urgency, and frequency concerns. Our methods are effective, long lasting and comfortable.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Along with other pelvic floor physiotherapy techniques, we can treat Pelvic Organ Prolapse with something called a pessary device. A pessary is a comfortable, safe appliance, worn internally, that supports your internal organs, can prevent prolapse, and relieve incontinence.
Pre/Post-natal Care
Pregnancy often causes significant stress and changes to the structures that make up the pelvic floor. Physiotherapy can help prevent dysfunction during pregnancy and can help you quickly recover post pregnancy.
Steps of Care
Intake
Your first visit starts with an intake. You and your clinician will have a conversation about your medical history and your goals for treatment. You will have the opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have and have all of your questions answered. We guarantee you will feel 100% comfortable and informed prior to starting any treatment or assessment.
Assessment
The assessment portion of pelvic floor rehabilitation involves questions, movements, and possibly an internal exam. Your clinician will keep you informed throughout the process so you can collaboratively determine the best course of treatment for your health goals and lifestyle.
Treatment
We use an interactive approach to treatment. You and your clinician will work together to create positive change with the structures of your pelvic floor and minimize or resolve your symptoms. This often includes exercises, advanced physiotherapy modalities, supportive devices and a custom homecare program .
