Pelvic Health for Female Athletes
Female athletes, from recreational to elite, can experience a range of pelvic health concerns that may affect performance, comfort, and confidence. Common issues include urinary leakage, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain, and core or hip dysfunction.
Pelvic health physiotherapy can help you optimise pelvic floor and core function, improve performance, and prevent or manage symptoms that may impact training and competition.

We’re conveniently located inside a gym, giving you access to a full gym floor for your physiotherapy appointments. This allows us to:
- Assess and train your pelvic floor and core during real-life athletic movements
- Provide exercise guidance and return-to-sport training in the exact environment where you perform
- Work with gym equipment to tailor strengthening and stability programs
You don’t need to be a gym member, all appointments can use the gym facilities as part of your treatment plan.

Urinary incontinence during impact activities such as running, jumping, or lifting
