What is a Women’s Health Physiotherapist?

A Women’s Health therapist specialises in the assessment and treatment of obstetric and gynaecological related conditions.
Such conditions can often be difficult to talk about as they are regarded as very personal and sometimes embarrassing.
You will find a Women’s Health Specialist is very approachable and easy to talk to with a wealth of experience and understanding.

What type of conditions can we help with?

- Stress Incontinence
- Urge Incontinence
- Pregnancy Related Back Pain / Sacro-Iliac Pain
- Pubic Symphysis Dysfunction

Problems can arise from weakened muscles that help us control our continence. A therapist can assist you in re-training these muscles to give you back your control via specialised techniques.
Lax ligaments and weakened muscles can also cause joint irritation during pregnancy and severe pain. The therapist is able to identify these causes and help with the appropriate pain relief.

It’s important not to suffer in silence with these common conditions. There is help available so please call for some advice.
