What Is Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation?

Pelvic floor rehabilitation is a specialized area of physiotherapy focused on treating dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles—the group of muscles that support the pelvic organs, contribute to core stability, and help control bladder and bowel function. These muscles can become weak, tight, or uncoordinated due to various factors, leading to symptoms like incontinence, pain, or prolapse. Our approach uses targeted exercises and techniques to restore proper function to these important muscles.

Common Causes

Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation can be caused by various factors, including but not limited to:

  • Pregnancy and childbirth
  • Aging and hormonal changes
  • Surgery in the pelvic region
  • Chronic constipation or straining
  • Repetitive heavy lifting
  • Obesity and increased abdominal pressure
  • Chronic coughing
  • Traumatic injury to the pelvic area

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens during a pelvic floor physiotherapy assessment?

A pelvic floor assessment typically begins with a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and goals. The physical examination may include observing posture and breathing patterns, assessing abdominal and hip muscle function, and evaluating the pelvic floor muscles. With your consent, this may include an internal examination to assess muscle strength, tone, and coordination. All assessments are conducted with the utmost respect for your privacy and comfort.

How many sessions of pelvic floor physiotherapy will I need?

Most patients require 4-8 sessions over 2-3 months, though this varies based on your specific condition and how your body responds to treatment. Simple stress incontinence might improve in 4-6 sessions, while complex pelvic pain conditions may require longer treatment. We'll provide a more specific estimate after your initial assessment and regularly reassess your progress.

Is pelvic floor physiotherapy only for women?

No, pelvic floor physiotherapy benefits people of all genders. While women often seek treatment for pregnancy-related issues or prolapse, men can benefit from pelvic floor therapy for conditions like post-prostatectomy incontinence, chronic pelvic pain, or certain sexual dysfunctions. Our clinic provides specialized care for all genders with pelvic floor concerns.
