Treatment may include exercise programs, manual therapy, education on posture and body mechanics, and support belts or braces.
Postpartum Recovery: Physiotherapy rehabilitation postpartum focuses on promoting recovery, restoring pelvic floor function, and addressing musculoskeletal changes following childbirth. Treatment may involve pelvic floor rehabilitation, core strengthening exercises, scar management, and guidance on returning to exercise safely.
Pelvic Pain Disorders: Physiotherapy is integral in managing pelvic pain disorders such as vulvodynia, vestibulodynia, and endometriosis-related pain. Treatment may include pelvic floor relaxation techniques, manual therapy, desensitization strategies, and education on pain management strategies.
