Ways Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy May Support 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 physiotherapy may help:

Confidence and Comfort

Our holistic approach is designed to help you gain a deeper understanding of your body, build strength, and work toward feeling more comfortable and confident in yourself.

Life’s Changes

A woman's body goes through significant changes across her lifetime. Women's health physiotherapy may help you move through each stage with greater ease and confidence.

Open Conversations

Our women's health physiotherapists provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak openly and receive compassionate, personalised care.

Are birth, surgery, or menopause leaving you feeling less like yourself?

Our women’s health physio team is here to help you work toward feeling more like yourself again.

Answering Your Women's Health Physiotherapy Questions

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

If chronic pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, painful intercourse or difficulty with bladder and bowel control are affecting your daily life, pelvic health physiotherapy may be a helpful option to explore.

Many women also choose to see us throughout pregnancy or in the postpartum period for guidance on exercise, core recovery, and pelvic floor health.

What are the common signs of prolapse?

Common prolapse symptoms may include a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the pelvic region, a bulging or dragging sensation, 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 can I expect during my first visit?

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

Following your assessment, we’ll collaborate with you to create a personalised treatment plan that reflects your needs and comfort level.

Can manual therapy be part of my women's health physiotherapy plan?

As part of your treatment plan, manual therapy may be used to help address areas of tension or restriction in the pelvic region and surrounding musculoskeletal structures.

How much time should I set aside for 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.

Do I need a GP referral to see a pelvic health physiotherapist?

No referral is necessary; you can book directly with us at any time. However, if you have received a referral from your GP or obstetrician, we encourage you to bring it along so we may work collaboratively with your broader care team.

Is there anything I need to do before my first session?

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 does it typically take to notice improvement?

The number of sessions needed will vary depending on your individual condition and goals. Many women may begin to notice improvement within three to six sessions, particularly when their home exercise program is followed consistently.

Our approach is centred on long-term recovery and improved function, going beyond short-term symptom management.

How may pelvic floor physiotherapy support me during pregnancy or after childbirth?

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

In the postpartum period, we may support you with abdominal separation recovery, pelvic floor strengthening, pain management, and a guided return to exercise.

Is women's health physiotherapy beneficial after 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.

How may women's health physio help with sexual health concerns?

Sexual health is a significant yet frequently overlooked aspect of women’s overall well-being. Painful intercourse or pelvic floor muscle tension may affect intimacy and quality of life.

Our team of physiotherapists is committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care in a judgment-free space, supporting you in addressing these health concerns with sensitivity and respect.

Do your physiotherapists collaborate with other health professionals?

Where it is clinically appropriate, our team collaborates with other health professionals, including GPs and obstetricians, to support coordinated and comprehensive care. We are committed to a holistic approach that considers your overall well-being, not just a single aspect of your health.

Is pelvic floor physiotherapy covered by insurance?

Most private health funds cover pelvic floor physiotherapy under Physiotherapy: Extras. If you are referred under an Enhanced Primary Care plan from your general practitioner, you may also be eligible for a Medicare rebate for up to five sessions per year. We can help you check your eligibility during booking.

What should I know about your cancellation policy?

We understand that life can be unpredictable. Should you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice.

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.
