Pelvic health physiotherapy Brisbane southside.
The pelvic floor muscles play a crucial role in supporting the pelvic organs and maintaining bladder and bowel control. In women, these muscles can become either weak or overactive, leading to a range of symptoms and issues. Physiotherapy can help to strengthen or release these muscles, improving overall pelvic health.
Pelvic Floor Weakness
Pelvic floor weakness is a common issue, affecting up to one in three women. Causes of weak pelvic floors can include pregnancy, childbirth, aging, and hormonal changes. Symptoms of weak pelvic floors may include urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and discomfort during intercourse.
Physiotherapy can help to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, improving overall pelvic health and reducing symptoms. Treatment may include pelvic floor muscle exercises, manual therapy, and advice on lifestyle changes.
Pelvic Floor Overactivity
Pelvic floor overactivity is also a common issue, leading to a range of symptoms including urinary urgency, frequency, and pain during intercourse. Causes of overactive pelvic floors may include chronic muscle tension, anxiety, and some medical conditions.
Physiotherapy can help to release the pelvic floor muscles, reducing symptoms and improving overall pelvic health. Treatment may include pelvic floor muscle relaxation exercises, manual therapy, and biofeedback.
As well as looking at overall pelvic strength, our physiotherapists can also work with the following conditions:
Pelvic Pain: Physiotherapists can help to assess and treat pelvic pain caused by conditions such as endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, and chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
Urinary Incontinence: Physiotherapists can help to treat both stress and urge urinary incontinence through pelvic floor muscle exercises, manual therapy, and bladder retraining.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse: Physiotherapists can help to manage symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse and improve pelvic floor muscle function through exercises and manual therapy.
Pregnancy and Postpartum Care: Physiotherapists can provide prenatal and postpartum care for women, including pelvic floor muscle exercises and manual therapy to address issues such as diastasis recti and perineal trauma.
Pelvic floor strengthening and releasing is an important aspect of women's health. Physiotherapy can help to address both weak and overactive pelvic floors, reducing symptoms and improving overall pelvic health. If you are experiencing symptoms related to your pelvic floor, our physiotherapists can help to provide a tailored treatment plan to meet your individual needs.
