Women's Health physiotherapists have undergone additional post-graduate training to enable them to effectively assess and treat the unique issues women encounter with respect to pain, function, and the pelvic floor. This treatment includes education, pelvic floor muscle training, core, and diastasis recti rehabilitation, manual therapy, pessary fittings, and individually tailored exercise programs. Women's Health physiotherapists understand the physical differences (and unique needs) of the female population and are uniquely qualified to assist women in improving pelvic health, returning to full function, returning to sport and living a pain-free and healthy life.
The sessions are completely confidential and involve initial questioning to ensure a thorough understanding of the patient's story, history, and goals. We then perform an assessment of movement and function depending on what the patient's main issues are. This may also involve an assessment of the patient's tummy and an internal assessment of pelvic floor muscles (if required). The patient is in control of the assessment at all times and has the right to refuse any aspect of their care if they so wish. We believe in educating the patient through every step of the rehabilitation process, thereby ensuring they are at ease and are an active participant in their road to achieving their personal goals. We are also available at any time via email/phone if there are any questions or clarifications that they need.
Your treatment will be completely tailored by your assessment and presentation, as well as your comfort with certain approaches. We have a wide range of treatments available to us! Sometimes all we need is to identify the disorder, educate, and come up with a plan or schedule. Our physiotherapists are also familiar with the use of adjuncts to treatment such as fitting a pessary, vaginal weights such as beads and cones, pelvic wands, vaginal dilators, e-stim units programs, bladder retraining or bladder drills, femeze, pelvic educators, real time ultrasound and more.
