Women’s Pelvic Health Physiotherapists play an important role in the treatment of many conditions affecting women's pelvic health. Pelvic floor muscles can weaken for a number of reasons, including childbirth and ageing. These weakened muscles can lead to stress incontinence – the leakage of urine when there is extra pressure on the bladder through coughing, laughing or exercising like running and jumping.
At Humanity Warwick we offer a specialised service to women with bladder, bowel and pelvic floor dysfunction, pelvic organ prolapse and sexual dysfunction.
Following a detailed assessment, the right treatment will be tailored for you
