Intervention from a skilled physiotherapist who specialises in the area of pelvic floor physiotherapy is the key to controlling your incontinence symptoms.
Pregnancy related back and pelvic pain, as well as incontinence, do not need to be accepted as a normal part of the pregnancy experience. Physiotherapist directed assessment and intervention could be of assistance in managing pain symptoms and improving the quality of life in the pre- and post-natal phases.
The principal physiotherapist, Janene Steains, has worked in this area for 20 years and has a passion for providing high quality assessment and intervention to both men and women with pelvic floor symptoms causing them concern.
