DO YOU HAVE BOWEL PROBLEMS?
At Glen Eira Physiotherapy Carnegie we can help you! Pelvic floor muscles are often a part of the problem; in most cases they are weak and need strengthening, but they may also be poorly co-ordinated, or overactive and tight. Our pelvic floor trained physiotherapist will perform a thorough assessment, explain your condition, and then develop an appropriate treatment plan with you to help you achieve your health goals.
WHAT DOES MY ASSESSMENT INVOLVE?
- History & details about your bowel problems

WHAT MIGHT MY TREATMENT INVOLVE?
- Individualised pelvic floor muscle training program
