Pelvic floor physiotherapy is a specialized form of therapy that involves assessment and treatment of the pelvic floor. Your pelvic floor is made up of muscles, and therefore with proper treatment and exercise, improvements can be made on a number of conditions.

The physical portion will entail a movement assessment, external assessment, as well as internal examination. The internal examination may be done at a later date depending on your comfort level, but is highly recommended to get the best results. You will be prescribed individual exercises based on the findings in your assessment, and these will be adjusted at follow up appointments depending on your progress.
