Your health changes throughout life. Understanding those changes matters.

Women’s health encompasses many aspects of physical wellbeing, including pelvic floor function, bladder and bowel health, pregnancy-related changes and menopause.

Some of these concerns can be difficult to discuss. Others are sometimes accepted as an inevitable part of getting older or having children.

However, experiencing these concerns doesn’t mean you shouldn’t seek advice.

Lion Rocker Health offers Women’s Health Physiotherapy for women who wish to understand and address particular pelvic health and movement concerns.

 
WHEN MIGHT WOMEN’S HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPY BE RELEVANT?
PELVIC FLOOR HEALTH

The pelvic floor muscles help support the bladder, bowel and pelvic organs. They also contribute to bladder and bowel control and sexual function.

Assessment by a suitably qualified physiotherapist can help identify pelvic floor concerns and whether an individualised management program may be appropriate.

BLADDER CONCERNS
Urinary leakage, urgency and bladder control difficulties can affect everyday activities and confidence.

Women’s Health Physiotherapy may involve assessment and management strategies, including pelvic floor training where appropriate.

 
BOWEL HEALTH
Bowel concerns, including constipation and difficulties with bowel control, may sometimes involve pelvic floor dysfunction.

An assessment can help determine whether physiotherapy may form part of an appropriate management approach.

 
PREGNANCY AND POSTNATAL HEALTH
Pregnancy and childbirth involve significant physical changes.

Women’s Health Physiotherapy may provide support with pelvic floor assessment, movement, exercise and recovery following childbirth.

 
PELVIC PAIN AND PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE

Pelvic discomfort, pain during intercourse and symptoms associated with pelvic organ prolapse are concerns that may warrant professional assessment.

Physiotherapy may form part of a broader management approach, depending on the individual’s circumstances.

 
YOU DON’T HAVE TO IGNORE YOUR CONCERNS.
Women’s health deserves attention, understanding and appropriate care.
If you’re experiencing symptoms or have questions about your pelvic health, speaking with a qualified Women’s Health Physiotherapist may help you understand the available options.
