Women's health physiotherapy focuses on addressing conditions specific to women, particularly those related to the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor is a group of muscles, ligaments, and tissues that support vital organs like the bladder, uterus, and rectum, playing a crucial role in functions such as urination, bowel movements, and sexual health. This specialized physiotherapy helps manage issues like urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pregnancy-related pain, postpartum recovery, and conditions like endometriosis or pelvic pain. Through techniques such as targeted exercises, manual therapy, and education on lifestyle modifications, it enhances pelvic floor strength, function, and overall well-being.
The purpose of women's health and pelvic floor rehabilitation is to improve the strength, function, and coordination of the pelvic floor muscles, which support essential organs like the bladder, uterus, and rectum. This specialized therapy helps address issues such as urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pregnancy-related discomfort, postpartum recovery, and chronic pelvic pain. By incorporating targeted exercises, manual therapy, and lifestyle guidance, it aims to restore muscle control, alleviate discomfort, and enhance overall well-being.
