Pelvic health physiotherapy for men

Pelvic health physiotherapy is an evidence-based treatment for common conditions within the pelvis such as incontinence, pelvic pain and other perineal issues. A comprehensive subjective and objective evaluation is conducted to identify all the factors that are contributing to your symptoms. A treatment plan will be formulated with personalized short and long-term goals.

Where are the pelvic floor muscles located?

The pelvic floor muscles consist of three layers of muscle that form the base of the pelvis. Stretching like a hammock between the pubic bone and the coccyx, these muscles play a major role in holding in urine, gas and stool. During a voluntary contraction, the pelvic floor muscles move forward and upward.

What to expect at the assessment in pelvic health physiotherapy?

This assessment is appropriate for any man experiencing pelvic floor symptoms or wanting to be proactive with their pelvic health.

The initial assessment comprises a one-hour individual pelvic health evaluation conducted by a registered pelvic health physiotherapist. Depending on the purpose of the consultation, it may include a postural examination, an abdominal evaluation, a perineal assessment and an anal assessment.
