What is pelvic floor physiotherapy?
Pelvic floor physiotherapy is a specialized form of physiotherapy that focuses on the muscles, joints, nerves, and connective tissues in and around the pelvis, lower back, and core. These muscles play a vital role in bladder and bowel control, sexual function, core stability, and support of pelvic organs. For women, this type of therapy can help address a wide range of concerns, including incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, painful intercourse, and postpartum recovery. Treatment is gentle, evidence-based, and personalized to your needs, often combining education, hands-on techniques, breath work, and specific exercises.
