In the realm of physiotherapy, pelvic health often remains a lesser-known but critically important domain. Pelvic physiotherapy addresses a range of conditions and symptoms related to the pelvic region, offering tailored treatments to improve function, alleviate discomfort, and enhance overall well-being. At Delta Physiotherapy and Rehab, we understand the importance of taking control of your pelvic health and are ready to help you take your health back.


The pelvis plays a central role in various bodily functions, including bowel, bladder, and sexual health, as well as stability and support for the spine and organs. However, factors such as childbirth, surgery, trauma, chronic conditions, and aging can disrupt pelvic function, leading to a myriad of symptoms and conditions.


Pelvic physiotherapists are specialised practitioners trained to assess, diagnose, and treat pelvic floor dysfunction and related issues. They employ a holistic approach, considering physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors impacting pelvic health. Through personalized care plans, they aim to restore optimal function and empower individuals to actively manage their pelvic well-being.

 

WHAT CONDITIONS DO PELVIC HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPISTS TREAT? 

Pelvic physiotherapists address a wide range of conditions and symptoms. These include: incontinence, pelvic pain, pelvic organ prolapse, constipation, diastasis recti, female sexual dysfunction, dyspareunia (painful intercourse), endometriosis/dysmenorrhea (painful periods), irritable bowel syndrome, coccydynia (tailbone pain), interstitial cystitis, and pre- and postnatal concerts.

By empowering individuals to actively participate in their healing journey, pelvic physiotherapists play a vital role in promoting overall well-being and quality of life.
