Our women’s health physiotherapists in North Calgary<\/a> and South Calgary, AB<\/a> address the most common conditions of pelvic floor dysfunction and prenatal and postpartum care, including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n
Pelvic Floor Dysfunction<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

These disorders often stem from the natural aging process, and from events like childbirth and some surgical procedures. Symptoms can include urinary and fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and pelvic Our pain. Statistics show that up to one-third of women will experience a pelvic floor disorder in their lifetime.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Prenatal and Postpartum Care<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Physiotherapists can help you manage musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction associated with pregnancy and post-delivery timelines to ensure a smoother transition for mothers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Endometriosis<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Pelvic floor physiotherapy will not cure your endometriosis. It may, however, provide some much-needed pain relief. Managing endometriosis usually requires multiple strategies, as there are often multiple sources of pain.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Osteoporosis<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

This condition is more prevalent in women than men. It causes bones to weaken, which can increase the risk of fractures and falls. Physiotherapy for osteoporosis can help build bone strength and prevent falls.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Lymphedema<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Often a side effect of cancer treatment, this condition causes swelling due to a blockage in the lymphatic system. Physiotherapists help manage and reduce symptoms.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Chronic Pelvic Pain<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

This can be caused by endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, or other conditions. Physiotherapy can help alleviate pain and discomfort.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Breast Cancer Recovery<\/h6><\/span><\/div>

Physiotherapists help restore movement and strength after surgery and reduce side effects from treatments.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
