What you should expect from your pelvic health assessment

What should you expect from your pelvic health assessment!?

🌸Your physiotherapist will take a comprehensive medical history and conduct a detailed physical assessment. If you are consulting our clinic for pelvic physiotherapy, with your consent, an internal pelvic examination will be conducted.^[1,2]

🌸Internal pelvic examinations assist our qualified pelvic therapists in determining the current state of the pelvic floor muscles and pelvic girdle joints and pinpointing the cause of your symptoms.^[1]

🌸Each of your sessions is scheduled with a physiotherapist for one-on-one care. Your plan of care will consist of a hybrid model of care that includes virtual and manual (hands-on) therapy, internal and external techniques applied to the pelvic muscles and examinations requiring disrobing are all performed in private treatment rooms.

🌸Based on the results of your assessment, your therapist will create a personalized treatment plan including a home exercise program. Each follow-up session will build on the previous session, progressively working towards your goals.^[3]
