Womens Health Physio Cammeray
Every woman deserves to feel strong, comfortable, and confident in her body.
Women's Health Physio for Every Stage of Life
Do you experience back pain, bladder leaks, or core weakness following birth? Is pelvic pain or painful intercourse impacting your daily life or your sense of intimacy?
Every woman’s health journey is unique and personal. At DX Physio, our experienced female physiotherapists deliver tailored women’s health physio care designed to help you move with confidence, strength, and comfort.
Conditions We May Support Women With
Our women’s health physiotherapy services are designed to assist with a broad range of conditions, from pelvic floor concerns to postnatal care and beyond.
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.
What is often overlooked is the role of the pelvic region. When the pelvic muscles are weak, tight, or out of balance, particularly after pregnancy, menopause, or surgery, they may affect your posture, stability, and even your breathing.
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.
Are birth, surgery, or menopause leaving you feeling less like yourself?
Our women’s health physiotherapists are here to support you on your journey back to feeling like yourself.

Common Questions About Women's Health Physiotherapy
How do I know if I need a pelvic health physiotherapist?
If you have been living with chronic pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, painful intercourse, difficulty controlling your bladder and bowel function, pelvic physiotherapy may be helpful.
We also see many women during pregnancy or in the postpartum period for support with exercise, core recovery, and pelvic floor health.
What are the symptoms of prolapse?
Some common symptoms of prolapse may include a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the pelvic area, a bulging or dragging sensation, challenges with bowel movements or bowel control, and discomfort experienced during intimacy.
Do you support conditions beyond pelvic health?
Our team’s experience extends beyond pelvic health to include musculoskeletal concerns such as back pain, hip pain, and pregnancy-related issues. We approach care holistically, with a focus on supporting your overall well-being and quality of life.
What can I expect during my first visit?
Your first appointment includes a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and goals. Your physiotherapist will then perform 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.
Does women's health physiotherapy involve manual therapy?
Manual therapy may be used as part of your treatment plan to help address tension or restriction in the pelvic area and surrounding musculoskeletal structures.
What is the usual duration of a treatment session?
First appointments are usually around 60 minutes in length, incorporating a detailed consultation and physical assessment. Subsequent follow-up sessions generally take around 45 minutes, depending on the nature of your treatment plan.
Can I book a pelvic health physio appointment without a referral?
You do not need a referral to see one of our pelvic health physiotherapists. Simply book directly with our team. If you have been referred by your GP or obstetrician, please bring your referral along so we may coordinate care as needed.
What do I need to know before attending my first appointment?
There is nothing specific you need to do to prepare for your first appointment. We suggest wearing comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. Should an internal examination be appropriate, your physiotherapist will walk you through what this involves; it is always optional and entirely consent-based.
How many sessions will I need before I start to see improvement?
Progress varies from person to person and depends on your condition and goals. With consistent adherence to their home exercise program, many women may begin to notice improvement within three to six sessions.
At DX Physio, we are committed to supporting long-term recovery and function, not just providing short-term symptom relief.
Can pelvic floor physiotherapy help during pregnancy or after childbirth?
Throughout pregnancy, physiotherapy may assist in managing back or pelvic girdle pain, supporting improved posture and helping to prepare your body for birth.
Following childbirth, our team may assist with abdominal separation recovery, pelvic floor strengthening, pain management, and a gradual return to exercise.
Can women's health physio support my recovery after pelvic surgery?
Recovering from pelvic surgery may affect pelvic floor function, movement, and comfort in ways that aren’t always addressed in standard post-operative care. Our experienced team offers pelvic floor rehab to support your recovery at a pace that suits your body.
Can women's health physiotherapy assist with sexual health and intimacy concerns?
Sexual health is an important but often overlooked aspect of women’s well-being. Painful intercourse or pelvic floor muscle tension can affect intimacy and quality of life.
In a welcoming, judgment-free environment, our physiotherapists deliver compassionate, evidence-based care to help you address these important health concerns.
Do you work alongside other health professionals?
Where appropriate, our experienced team works collaboratively with other health professionals, including GPs and obstetricians, to help your care stay coordinated and comprehensive. We believe that holistic care means looking at the whole picture, not just one piece of it.
Is pelvic floor physiotherapy covered by insurance?
Most private health funds include pelvic floor physiotherapy under Physiotherapy: Extras. Should you have a referral from your GP under an Enhanced Primary Care plan, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate covering up to five sessions per year. We can assist you in checking your eligibility when you book.
What is your cancellation policy?
We understand that life can be busy. If you need to reschedule or cancel, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice.
Cancellations within 24 hours or missed appointments may incur a cancellation fee, as this time is reserved especially for you.
