Promote Well-Being
Empower yourself pre and post-operation. Are you scheduled for prostate surgery, gynaecological repair, c-section or laparoscopy? These are examples of pelvic surgeries. A pelvic health consultation will explain the surgery and how to prepare and will guide healing, improve pelvic function and reduce pain. We can aim to prevent complications and ensure you return to the activities you love doing. This advanced care supports our patients in regaining strength and confidence.
Pain can present in both men and women. Pelvic and sexual pain affects many aspects of daily life, from sitting to walking and intimate relationships. Physiotherapy can help by using techniques to relax muscles, improve movement and reduce pain, allowing you to feel more comfortable and confident in your body. In women, pain may be present during intercourse, you may feel it as an increased sensitivity around vulva or during ovulation and menstruation. Many male patients present with pain or discomfort in the scrotum, tip of the penis or deep behind the perineum.
Bladder issues can manifest as an urgent need to wee or leaking during activities like coughing or sudden movements. This may be due to a weakened pelvic floor, which affects your ability to control urine flow. On another scenario, increased tension in the pelvic floor can lead to overfilling the bladder, making it difficult to start the flow, completely empty your bladder or result in overflow.
Similarly, loss of bowel control can occur, which may be related to gut issues or a muscle strength issue. These can be identified through a review of your diet, fluid intake and pelvic floor testing.
“The pelvis is a unique, complex system where each organ may impact its neighbour. Maintaining good habits and overall health supports predictable and controlled toilet habits, comfort and healing”.
