Pregnancy Related Pelvic Girdle Pain

Pelvic girdle pain is a common problem during pregnancy and beyond. For many this is accepted as part of the process of having a baby, but if it is starting to interfere with your daily life then it is time to seek help! Following an assessment, treatment techniques, advice and self help strategies will be based around your individual requirements.

Post-natal Physiotherapy

As well as pain during the post-natal period, physiotherapy can help with pelvic floor dysfunction and incontinence (bladder and bowel). Your treatment with us will include an in depth assessment, some charts to fill and if appropriate an internal examination. This is nothing to worry about and helps your Physiotherapist formulate an appropriate treatment plan and goals in consultation with you. Pelvic floor exercises are not physically demanding but it is vital to be using the correct technique!
