PELVIC HEALTH & CONTINENCE

Gynaecological cancers, such as cervical and prostate cancer, radiotherapy and some types of chemotherapy can cause pelvic floor dysfunction. Our pelvic health and continence physiotherapists can help if you are experiencing symptoms involving: incontinence, vaginal dryness, pain with intercourse, erectile dysfunction or menopausal symptoms. Just like the rest of the body, the pelvic floor and pelvic organs can be rehabilitated. Often it can be very simple strategies and exercises that make a big difference to your symptoms and quality of life.

Our PINC & STEEL certified physiotherapist Chelsey is a pelvic health and continence physiotherapist. She works with men, women and children who are experiencing pelvic health concerns. Good Country Physiotherapy’s Senior Pelvic Health Physiotherapist, Naomi Gill, also works closely with our cancer team to provide services to a range of patients. Together, Chelsey and Naomi work with other health professionals in the region, including general practitioners, continence nurses, gynaecologists and surgeons.
