Men's Pelvic Health

Our Continence and Pelvic Health physiotherapist has post graduate training in Men’s Pelvic Health and can help with a range of pelvic health issues affecting men such as:

  • Bladder concerns such as urgency, frequency, stress urinary incontinence, urge urinary incontinence and problems with bladder emptying 

  • Constipation and straining

  • Bowel concerns such as faecal urgency and incontinence 

  • Pelvic pain

  • Pre and post op prostate surgery 

 

 

Prostate Surgery

Urinary incontinence, or leakage, is to be expected after prostatectomy as the continence mechanism in men is disrupted with this type of surgery. Pelvic floor muscle exercises can help to prevent or improve urinary incontinence following prostate surgery, and may even help men regain bladder control earlier. For best results these exercises should be taught by a Continence and Pelvic Health Physiotherapist prior to surgery but these can also be started after surgery.

​​

Men's Pelvic Health Initial Assessments are 60 minutes in length and for new patients at The Studio or previous patients with a new injury. 

 

Follow up appointments are 45 minutes in length and designed to further treat your complaint and build on your progress.
 

Health funds accepted, rebates available on the spot. Work Cover accepted. EPC accepted (expect to pay a gap).
