Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy is offered at Nova
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that sits at the bottom of your pelvis and plays a vital role in the function and support of the bladder, anus, and reproductive organs. When these muscles are weakened or imbalanced, it can lead to a variety of symptoms that affect daily life.
Individuals struggling with issues such as incontinence, constipation, pelvic pain, pelvic pressure, groin pain, hip pain, or lumbopelvic pain may benefit from a thorough pelvic floor assessment. These conditions can be caused by weak or tight pelvic floor muscles, and pelvic health physiotherapy can help restore proper function and alleviate discomfort.
Our pelvic health physiotherapy services include:
Internal and non-internal assessments: We provide both internal (vaginal or rectal) and external assessments to evaluate the strength, function, and coordination of the pelvic floor muscles. This helps identify any dysfunction or imbalance that could be contributing to your symptoms.
Treatment for urinary incontinence: Whether it’s stress incontinence, urge incontinence, or mixed incontinence, we provide targeted exercises and strategies to strengthen the pelvic floor and reduce the frequency and urgency of leaks.
Pelvic pain management: Pelvic pain can result from a variety of conditions, such as endometriosis, pelvic floor dysfunction, or post-surgical complications. We offer treatments to alleviate pain and restore proper function.
Postpartum rehabilitation: After childbirth, many women experience pelvic floor weakness or dysfunction. Our rehabilitation program helps strengthen the pelvic floor, improve core stability, and address any pelvic pain or discomfort.
Constipation management: Difficulty with bowel movements can sometimes be linked to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. We provide tailored exercises and techniques to address this issue and improve bowel regularity.
Core stability and postural training: Pelvic health physiotherapy often includes strengthening the deep core muscles, improving posture, and addressing the pelvic-lumbar connection to promote better overall function and comfort.
