When To Call Our Female Physiotherapist
We can assist throughout pregnancy should pubic symphysis, pelvic girdle, lower back, thoracic, and joint pain cause discomfort. We are experts in rehabilitating your pelvic floor muscles and provide the most up-to-date, informed treatment. There’s no need to suffer from abdominal muscle separation, tingling, aching and numbness in your wrists, or sore tendons at the base of the thumb, to name a few common conditions that may plague you.
You need not endure sexual, bowel or urinary dysfunction. Our pelvic health physio will assess your condition, provide hands-on treatment, and support you through education, suggesting lifestyle modifications, and providing you with exercises to lessen the symptoms.
