Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy FAQs
Q: Do I need a doctor’s referral for pelvic floor physiotherapy?
A: No referral is needed to book an assessment. However, some insurance plans require one for reimbursement, so check your policy. We offer direct billing to most major insurers.
Q: What happens during the first assessment?
A: Your physiotherapist will take a full history of your symptoms in a private room, assess your posture, breathing, and core, and discuss assessment options with you. Nothing happens without your explicit consent, and you remain in control at every step.
Q: Is an internal examination required?
A: No. An internal assessment can provide useful information, but it is always optional. External assessment and treatment approaches are available, and your comfort always comes first.
Q: Can I attend during pregnancy or after childbirth?
A: Yes. Pelvic floor physiotherapy is safe and highly recommended both during pregnancy and postpartum, whether you are preparing for delivery or recovering from one.
Q: Is pelvic floor physiotherapy only for women?
A: Pelvic floor physiotherapy can benefit men as well; however, our clinic does not currently offer pelvic health services for men. Our program is designed for women at every stage of life, including pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause.
Q: How many sessions will I need?
A: It varies with your condition and goals. Many patients notice meaningful improvement within four to six sessions, and your therapist will review progress with you regularly.
Q: Is pelvic floor physiotherapy covered by insurance?
A: It is billed as physiotherapy, so most extended health plans cover it. We offer direct billing to make the process simple.
