At your first visit, we will do an in-depth assessment, this will include details on your medical history, information related to your current condition in order to identify all contributing factors to your problem. All conversations are confidential. An external physical examination will be done again to identify any involvement to your main concern. An internal examination may also be carried out by your physiotherapist to assess the internal structures of the pelvic that is the pelvic floor muscles, organs or coccyx bone. This may be done either vaginal or rectal. This will only be done with your full consent, and there are other options for assessment if you prefer.

Based on YOUR symptoms and findings you will be treated appropriately and given a program specific to YOU. Our priority is to ensure that you feel as comfortable and as safe as possible throughout your visit.

All initial pelvic floor appointments are 1 hour long this allows us adequate time for a thorough assessment in identifying all contributing factors to your problem.

Follow up appointments are 30 minutes.
