physiotherapy & pelvic floor
Our physiotherapists have additional training in pelvic floor physio, rehabilitation, and orthopedic physio. Physiotherapy can diagnose and treat patients with persistent pain by taking a biopsychosocial approach.
Pelvic floor therapy is used to address a range of conditions related to the pelvic region.
People planning for a vaginal birth benefit from learning how to soften their pelvic floor muscles. Pelvic floor therapy can reduce trauma during birth and shorten the duration of the pushing stage of birth.
Whether you have pelvic floor pain related to pregnancy, or concerns such as bladder/bowel leakage, urgency/frequency, or pain, our physiotherapy team is here to help you!
Shockwave Therapy
A Non-invasive treatment
Reduces Muscle, Joint, and Bone Pain
What can Shockwave Therapy Treat?
Shockwave Therapy is a non-surgical method that is effective at reducing muscle, ligament, and bone pain.
How does it work?
High-energy sound waves move through the body tissues which stimulates the body's natural healing properties. The sound waves stimulate an increase in blood flow to the area and necessary growth hormones flock to the area where damaged and/or injured muscles, tendons and ligaments are located.
Shockwave therapy encourages the alignment of collagen fibers that add strength to the neighbouring tendons, muscles, and ligaments.
Shockwave therapy also stimulates pain-inhibiting chemicals which reduces pain sensations in treated areas. Shockwave Therapy is useful at treating chronic pain disorders, and pain caused by tension, strains, inflammation, trauma and injuries.
If you are curious about Shockwave Therapy and wonder if it is a suitable treatment option, then ask us. Services can be used as a part of your existing therapy, or as a stand-alone treatment.
