What Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy May Do For You

Many women come to us with ongoing back or hip pain that just never seems to go away. They may have tried stretches, massage, or general physio, but the pain keeps coming back.

The pelvic region is often an overlooked contributor to ongoing pain. When pelvic muscles are weak, tight, or imbalanced, particularly after pregnancy, menopause, or surgery, they may affect your posture, stability, and even your breathing patterns.

This is where women’s health physio may be able to support you:

Confidence and Comfort

Our holistic approach may help you develop a better understanding of your body, build strength, and work toward feeling truly comfortable in your own skin.

Life’s Changes

A woman's body changes significantly over a lifetime. Women's health physio may help you navigate each stage with greater ease.

Open Conversations

Our women's health physios offer a judgment-free space to talk openly and receive compassionate, targeted care.

Our women’s health physiotherapists are here to support you on your journey back to feeling like yourself.

Your Women's Health Physiotherapy Questions Answered

How do I know if I need a pelvic health physiotherapist?

If you are experiencing chronic pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, painful intercourse, or difficulty managing your bladder or bowel function, pelvic floor physiotherapy may be worth considering.

Many women also see us during pregnancy or postpartum for guidance on exercise, core recovery, and pelvic floor health.

What are the symptoms of prolapse?

Prolapse symptoms may vary, but commonly include a sensation of heaviness or pressure in the pelvic region, a bulging or dragging feeling, difficulty with bowel movements or bowel control, and discomfort during intimacy.

What other conditions may your team help with?

Alongside pelvic health conditions, our team also has experience supporting musculoskeletal injuries such as back pain, hip pain, and pregnancy-related concerns. We take a holistic approach to health care and focus on addressing quality of life.

What happens during my first appointment?

Your first visit begins with an in-depth discussion of your symptoms, medical history, and goals. Your physiotherapist will then conduct a thorough assessment, which may include:

Posture and movement analysis
Abdominal and pelvic examination (internal examination only with your consent)
Real-time ultrasound imaging to assess your core and pelvic floor activation

Together, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan that suits your needs and comfort level.

Is manual therapy included in women's health physiotherapy treatment?

Manual therapy may be incorporated into your treatment plan to help manage tension or restriction in the pelvic area and surrounding musculoskeletal structures.

How long does a women's health physiotherapy session take?

Initial assessments are typically 60 minutes long, allowing time for a detailed consultation and physical assessment. Follow-up appointments are usually around 45 minutes, though this may vary depending on your individual treatment plan.

Is a referral needed to book a pelvic health physiotherapy appointment?

No referral is required. You can book directly with us. However, if you have a referral from your GP or obstetrician, please bring it along so we may coordinate care as needed.

How should I prepare for my first physiotherapy appointment?

You don’t need to do anything special beforehand. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily. If an internal examination is appropriate, your physio will discuss this with you in detail; it’s always optional and consent-based.

How many sessions will I need before I start to see improvement?

This varies depending on your condition and goals. Most women may notice improvement within three to six sessions when following their home exercise program consistently.

At DX Physio, we are committed to supporting long-term recovery and function, not just providing short-term symptom relief.

Is pelvic floor physiotherapy beneficial during pregnancy or after giving birth?

During pregnancy, pelvic floor physiotherapy may help with the management of back or pelvic girdle pain, posture improvement, and physical preparation for birth.

After giving birth, we may assist with your abdominal separation recovery, pelvic floor strengthening, pain management, and a safe, supported return to exercise.

How may women's health physio assist following pelvic surgery?

Pelvic surgery recovery may impact pelvic floor function, movement, and comfort in ways that are not always covered by standard post-operative care. Our team offers pelvic floor rehabilitation to support your recovery at a pace that works for your body.

Is women's health physiotherapy able to support my sexual health?

An important but often under-discussed area of women’s well-being is sexual health. Painful intercourse or tension in the pelvic floor muscles can have an impact on intimacy and overall quality of life.

Our physiotherapists provide compassionate, evidence-based care in a supportive, judgment-free environment to help you work through these health concerns.

Can my women's health physio work alongside my other health professionals?

Our team works collaboratively with other health professionals, including GPs and obstetricians, wherever this is appropriate, to help keep your care coordinated and thorough. For us, holistic care means considering the full picture of your health, not just individual concerns.

Is pelvic floor physiotherapy claimable under private health insurance?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is generally covered under Physiotherapy: Extras by most private health funds. If you have been referred by your general practitioner under an Enhanced Primary Care plan, you may also qualify for a Medicare rebate for up to five sessions per year. Our team can help you confirm your eligibility during the booking process.

What should I know about your cancellation policy?

Life can be busy, and plans can change. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, we ask that you provide us with at least 24 hours’ notice where possible.

Cancellations within 24 hours of your scheduled appointment or missed appointments may attract a cancellation fee, as that time has been set aside specifically for your care.
