What is Pelvic Physiotherapy?​
​
Pelvic physiotherapy is a specialized form of physical therapy focused on the muscles, joints, ligaments, and tissues of your pelvic area. It can be really helpful for people experiencing pelvic pain, incontinence, issues during and after pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, hysterectomy and many more conditions. Ideal physio is a safe space where a specially trained physiotherapist helps you understand and relax as well as strengthen this often-overlooked part of your body, giving you tools to feel more comfortable, confident, and in control. Pelvic physiotherapy is more than just Kegels; not everyone needs the same treatment even after having the same symptoms. That's where pelvic physiotherapists come into the picture. Your physiotherapist will assess your issues, staying within your comfort level and come up with a tailor-made plan that works best for you. They will teach you how to move, breathe, and engage with your body in ways that support its natural function. Whether it’s managing discomfort from pelvic floor dysfunction, recovering from childbirth, or simply learning how to improve your pelvic health, pelvic physiotherapy is tailored to your unique needs. You can expect a compassionate, personalized approach aimed at improving your overall quality of life.
Why See a Pelvic Physiotherapist?
Visiting a pelvic physiotherapy clinic can be a life-changing experience. Many patients leave feeling empowered and grateful for the care they receive. Your time spent at the clinic will not only be educational but also relaxing and inspiring, leaving you with a deeper understanding of your body and its needs. We take pride in creating a welcoming and professional atmosphere at Ideal Physio. As someone who had never considered pelvic physiotherapy before, you might have a lot of questions and concerns, but your physiotherapist will take the time to explain the process in detail, which might alleviate the anxiety you might have related to assessment and treatment. Taking care of you is at the heart of our core values.
What Happens During a Pelvic Therapy Appointment?
The session begins with a thorough assessment, which involves a detailed discussion of your my medical history and any symptoms you might be experiencing. The therapist will ask insightful questions that might help you reflect on your daily activities and connect the dots, such as how certain activities or postures might be affecting your pelvic health. This initial conversation is often eye-opening, as it highlights how interconnected our body systems are and how pelvic health can influence so many aspects of daily life.
One of the most remarkable parts of the experience is usually how personalized and professional the assessment and treatments are. Unlike a one-size-fits-all approach,a physiotherapist tailors the exercises and techniques to address your specific needs. The focus is on relaxing, stretching, and/or strengthening the pelvic floor muscles and improving awareness of how to engage them properly based on your needs and goals. The physiotherapist may guide you through breathing techniques, pelvic floor relaxation, exercises, and posture adjustments that would help alleviate symptoms and improve your overall pelvic health. Pelvic health issues, such as incontinence, can often feel isolating or embarrassing, but our clinicians are kind, compassionate, and non-judgmental. They create a space where you can openly discuss your concerns, making sure you feel safe and supported. At Ideal, we believe that emotional reassurance is just as valuable as the manual therapy and physical exercises themselves, it encourages you to feel confident in your body’s ability to heal and improve.
​
As the session concludes, our goal is that you left the clinic with a clear understanding of what you could do to support your pelvic health and commit to taking care of yourself. Pelvic physiotherapy also provides you with practical tools for managing your condition but also reminds you of the importance of self-care and seeking professional support when needed.
It offers you a deeper understanding of your body, practical solutions for improving your health, and a sense of confidence and empowerment. The goal is that you walk away from the clinic feeling more in tune with yourself and grateful for the knowledge and care you received. Pelvic physiotherapy is truly a vital resource for anyone experiencing pelvic health issues. All you need to start is encouragement to consider it as part of their journey to better health.
