PLEASE NOTE: Emma who does our Women’s Health Assessments is back on 6th April 2024 and is now taking online/ phone bookings.
Symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction are more common than we think. It has been shown that 1 in 3 women experience urinary incontinence, 1 in 10 faecal incontinence and 1 in 12 prolapse. These symptoms are common but not normal and there is so much help we can offer.
Supervised pelvic floor muscle training with a specialist Women’s Health Physiotherapist is the first line treatment for management of these symptoms, as recommended by the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence.
