Women’s Health Physiotherapy

Women’s bodies go through significant physical changes during pregnancy, after childbirth, and at different stages of life. At Physio Care Ringwood, our Women’s Health Physiotherapy service is designed to support you through these changes with expert, evidence-based care in a safe, welcoming environment.

All assessments and treatment are provided by an experienced Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist with a special interest and additional training in Women’s Health Physiotherapy.

How Women’s Health Physiotherapy Can Help

Pregnancy-Related Conditions

Pregnancy places increased demands on the body and can lead to pain, discomfort and movement difficulties. Physiotherapy can help manage and relieve symptoms, improve function and keep you moving confidently throughout pregnancy.

Common pregnancy-related conditions we treat include:

  • Pelvic girdle pain (PGP) and pelvic pain

  • Lower back and hip pain

  • Sciatica

  • Rib and upper back pain

  • Postural and movement-related discomfort

  • Guidance for safe exercise during pregnancy

Postnatal Physiotherapy

The postnatal period is a time of recovery, rehabilitation and adjustment. Physiotherapy can support your body as it heals and help you return safely to daily activities, exercise and sport.

We can help with:

  • Postnatal back, pelvic and hip pain

  • Abdominal muscle separation (diastasis recti)

  • Pelvic floor rehabilitation

  • Return-to-exercise and return-to-running guidance

  • Ongoing aches and strains related to caring for a newborn

Bladder Continence & Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation

Bladder leakage is common but not something you have to live with. With specialist training in pelvic floor rehabilitation, we offer discreet, professional support to help improve bladder control and pelvic floor function.

We can help with:

  • Stress incontinence (leakage with coughing, sneezing or exercise)

  • Urge incontinence

  • Pelvic floor weakness

  • Education, assessment and personalised pelvic floor exercise programmes

Exercise Guidance for Pregnancy & Postnatal Recovery

Staying active during pregnancy and after birth has many benefits, but it’s important to exercise safely and appropriately. We provide tailored advice and progressive exercise programmes to support:

  • Safe strength and conditioning during pregnancy

  • Postnatal recovery and rebuilding strength

  • Gradual return to fitness, sport or high-impact exercise

All programmes are adapted to your individual needs, symptoms and stage of recovery.
