Pelvic Floor
Physiotherapist
Your pelvic floor is an important part of your body, but it’s often something we don’t talk about enough. Pelvic health physiotherapy looks at the pelvic floor, to help with concerns such as bladder control, pelvic pain, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, sexual health and returning to exercise. Angela K Jain offers private, one-on-one pelvic health physiotherapy at her Sandton rooms.
What Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Treats
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles supporting the bladder, bowel and uterus. Like any muscle group it can become weak, overactive or poorly coordinated. When that happens the symptoms can be uncomfortable, limiting and, for many women, embarrassing enough that they go unmentioned for years.
