Physio Naremburn

Beyond managing existing injuries, physiotherapy may also play a valuable role in helping you understand how your body moves, supporting better posture, and improving movement efficiency. This approach may assist in reducing the likelihood of future injuries.

Physiotherapy is not just for when something goes wrong. Regular physiotherapy sessions may help you move more efficiently, manage muscle tightness, and support improved posture, contributing to a healthier and more active life over the long term.

Women’s health physio is a focused area of practice covering pelvic health, pregnancy and postnatal recovery, menopause, and the pain or continence concerns that come with them. Our pelvic health physios see women across Sydney at every stage of life, from first-time mums to women navigating menopause and beyond.

The main distinction is the scope of care. Women’s health physiotherapy can support women with concerns related to pregnancy, postnatal recovery, menopause, pelvic health, pain and continence, while pelvic floor physiotherapy concentrates on the muscles supporting the bladder, bowel and pelvic organs. Because these areas are connected, your women’s health appointment may include pelvic floor assessment if it suits your needs and you have given consent.

Your first appointment will begin with a thorough conversation about your symptoms, birth or surgical history, when things changed and what you would like to achieve. We will then look at your movement and physical function before developing a plan suited to your needs. You remain in control throughout the appointment, with consent required for treatment and plenty of opportunity to ask questions.

Medicare support may apply when your GP creates a chronic condition management plan and refers you for physiotherapy. Eligible patients can access up to five allied health sessions per calendar year, shared between the allied health services listed on the plan. Your GP can confirm whether you qualify. If your private health fund extras policy includes physiotherapy, it may contribute towards each consultation, subject to your level of cover and annual limits. Contact your fund before attending to check what you can claim.

Some of the common conditions treated by our physiotherapists include back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint pain, muscle strains, headaches, pelvic pain, pregnancy-related discomfort, postnatal recovery, bladder concerns, changes in bowel movements, incontinence, prolapse and rehabilitation following surgery or injury. Treatment is tailored to your symptoms, needs and individual goals.

For bladder leakage, urinary incontinence or pelvic pain, physiotherapy may begin by looking at how the pelvic floor muscles work, including their strength, tension, timing and coordination with movement. Support may involve pelvic floor training, guidance about bladder habits, breathing techniques and exercises selected for your needs.

If it is clinically appropriate, your physiotherapist may recommend a physical examination. An internal assessment is only undertaken with your informed consent. Physiotherapy may also support bowel symptoms, pain during intercourse and pelvic organ prolapse, with the approach shaped around your symptoms, goals and comfort.

In most situations, you do not need a referral to book physiotherapy. The appointment may include practical advice, tailored exercise, movement approaches and hands-on treatment, based on your symptoms and aims. Depending on your level of private health fund cover, you may be able to claim a rebate, although annual limits and eligibility vary. Contact your provider to confirm what applies.
