Pelvic Fitness @ Physiosports is aimed at Bayside’s population of active people requiring help with their pelvic fitness. We are one of the few Bayside organisations offering this expert service.

Pelvic Floor physiotherapy addresses concerns that have to do with the muscles of the pelvic floor.  These deep muscles are responsible for good bladder and bowel function but are also the key component to the poorly understood ‘core’. Pelvic floor physiotherapists are trained in assessing these muscles and helping patients to achieve their goals. Just like all muscles in the body the pelvic floor can be specifically targeted with different types of exercises that should always be tailored to the patient, for the best results.

These muscles can be assessed via discussion, real time ultrasound or internal assessment based on patient comfort and needs. We aim to work with in your limits to make you as comfortable as possible while providing the best evidence based treatments.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT:

  • Consultations will take place in a private treatment room.
