Meeting Louise Hug
It has been a pleasure to educate and treat in the field of pelvic health and continence since commencing my masters four years ago. I returned to work from my second maternity leave with a toddler and a 4-year-old and fully immersed myself, prioritising treatment for those with pelvic health issues. I opened my books to men and women of all ages. Over the years I have realised how crucial circulation of pelvic health information is to people of all walks of life.
FAQs
-
You should be explained the options of Radical Prostatectomy (removal entirely) and radiation therapy by your urologist. You may then also consult with a radiological oncologist, and then you make your decision. During this time pre-operatively is the best time to seek physiotherapy assessment to practise for pelvic floor muscle exercises and learn about bladder control.
-
Not necessarily. In fact bladder issues can also arise with a tight, stiff and overactive pelvic floor. Any state that changes the optimal function of the pelvic floor, that is a nice elastic tissue with good shortening and lengthening. These different presentation require different treatment approaches, and maybe there is something external going on in the life we need to address.
-
Unlike treating an acute muscle or joint issues, session a not often multiple times a week or even weekly. It is useful to have the first 2 sessions 2 weeks apart to ensure all the information in understood, opportunity to ask questions and review the initial treatment strategies. Then I usually space sessions out about 4-6 weeks apart.

I get asked this all the time. Consider how long you have experienced the pain, it may not be a quick fix. Be prepared for the journey and to be consistent and positive throughout the process. We must not only consider the tissue or area where the pain is felt, but also the tension throughout the whole body, the mind, what does that brain think about the pain and what event wound up or continues to wind up your system?
