Your Women’s Health Physio Questions Answered

What are the benefits of visiting a women’s health physiotherapist? 

Visiting a women’s health physio may be incredibly beneficial for many women. The main benefits we’ve noticed among women’s health physio participants include assistance with pelvic floor-related issues, osteoporosis, musculoskeletal pain, bladder and bowel symptoms, carpal tunnel syndrome, pelvic organ collapse, and many more women’s health issues for women of all ages.

When should I book an appointment with a women’s health physio?

Early intervention may be particularly beneficial when it comes to women’s health. Assisting in the management of symptoms as early as possible may lead to earlier diagnosis and, therefore, assistance with pain and discomfort before it worsens. 

Some reasons you may consider seeing a women’s health physio include leaking urine when you exercise, severe period pain, mastitis, and having pain or discomfort in your pelvic area (including the bladder and bowels). If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s wise to make an appointment with a women’s health physio as soon as you can.

Women’s health physio is also often utilised by people who are pregnant and have recently given birth. At NDPE, we offer pre and post-natal physiotherapy and are here for you at any stage of these journeys! For post-natal physiotherapy, we recommend booking a women’s health physio appointment at six weeks postpartum.

What can I expect at my first visit to a women’s health physio? 

No matter your reason for seeing a women’s health physio, we understand it may be a daunting experience. Our caring team takes this into consideration and details what your first visit will look like to help you feel at ease.

We begin by asking you about your health history, concentrating on your pelvic floor function as well as your bladder and bowel habits. We will also ask about your pain and discomfort and perform a physical assessment (with your consent) to look at what issue/s you may be experiencing, their possible causes, and what treatment options may be beneficial for you. Following our assessment, we’ll discuss your management options with you and determine if we can assist or if an onward referral is needed.
