+ WHAT IS WOMEN’S HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPY?

This involves treating issues related to pelvic floor, incontinence, pain around the back, hips or SIJ or any pre or postnatal concerns such as Diastasis Recti (Belly Separation) or just wanting the best advice on how and when to exercise before and after your delivery.

At The Running Room our women’s health physiotherapists do a very thorough history and assessment of the key muscles around your belly, back and pelvic floor. These all work together to keep you functioning well. Madison Cutmore has completed further training and are able to perform internal exams if clinically necessary.

Assess how you are functioning and give you a diagnosis and a clear time frame back to health is our priority. We can also advise on your current exercise level and what exercises you need to do to get back to 100% healthy and happy.

Along the way we may advise on certain braces or supports to help like Belly braces, SIJ braces or recovery pants.
