What is Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy focuses on the muscles, tissues and movement patterns that support bladder control, bowel function, pelvic comfort, core strength and sexual health.

When the pelvic floor is too tight, too weak or not coordinating well, you may experience leakage, urgency, pelvic pain, pressure, constipation, prolapse symptoms or discomfort during intimacy.

Pelvic floor concerns can affect comfort, confidence, movement, intimacy, exercise and daily routines.

Whether you are recovering after childbirth, managing leakage, dealing with pelvic pain, preparing for surgery or noticing new symptoms during menopause, you deserve care that feels respectful, private and supportive.

Most importantly, our clinic is here to help Markham and Unionville residents feel safe, heard and understood from the very first visit.
