Our women’s health physiotherapy is a specialised service dedicated to offering treatment, guidance, and support to women throughout all stages of their lives. This service aims to address a variety of pelvic health conditions and hormone-related issues that women often encounter.
What We Treat
Our women’s health physiotherapy covers:
- Pelvic, hip or back pain
- Pelvic floor dysfunction
- Pregnancy-related musculoskeletal issues
- Post-natal recovery
- Continence problems
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- Pain during intercourse
- Post pelvic/gynae surgery
- Perimenopause/menopause symptoms
We understand that women experience significant body changes due to hormonal fluctuations, especially during perimenopause, menopause, pregnancy, and postnatal recovery. Our bodies are incredibly adaptive, but sometimes they need additional help and support during these crucial life phases.
Our Women’s Health Appointments:
- During Pregnancy
If you’re pregnant and experiencing pelvic, hip, or back pain, have concerns about your pelvic floor or posture, or need advice on exercise during pregnancy and labor preparation, our sessions can be beneficial
- Mummy MOT Postnatal Sessions
Ideal for postnatal women (regardless of how long ago you gave birth) who are dealing with issues like pelvic, hip, or back pain, pelvic floor concerns, continence problems, prolapse concerns, abdominal muscle gapping, or those who need advice on safe return to exercise or any other postnatal concerns
- Pelvic Health Issues
We can help if you have any pelvic health concerns or issues, which commonly arise during perimenopause and menopause. As oestrogen levels drop significantly during this period, symptoms like pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunctions, continence issues, or prolapse can become more prevalent.
- Post Pelvic/Gynae Surgery
We offer rehab services for those who have undergone pelvic/gynae surgery.
- General Deconditioning/Postural Issues
If you’re concerned about your posture or general ability to exercise, particularly around or after menopause, we can provide assistance.
Our specialist, Vicky Carey, is a Women’s Health Physio and Mummy MOT practitioner based at W5Physio. She’s ready to assist you on your journey to optimal health. Book an appointment with her today.
