Women’s Health Physiotherapy
Women’s Health Physiotherapy – Things we Treat
Women’s Health Physiotherapy is the therapeutic treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction and disorders affecting the pelvis. This can include issues such as pelvic organ prolapse, incontinence, bladder or bowel dysfunction and pain.
Many women often delay receiving help for these types of problems due to feelings of embarrassment and/or being unaware that Women’s Health Physiotherapy is a treatment option for them.
