Assessment and treatment may include:

• Orthopedic examination of spine, pelvis upper and lower body.
• Real Time Ultrasound Assessment: This is a test similar to what you would receive at the hospital but tailored for physiotherapy so patient and therapist can see the abdominal muscles, bladder, spine muscles. This allows us to see imbalances, measure endurance of the pelvic floor muscles as well as instruct on correct use of the pelvic floor muscles.
• Internal Assessment: this is a way of allowing the therapist to evaluate the tension and strength (or lack of) in the internal pelvic muscles.
• Myofascial release: this is muscle work used to release and relax muscles that are too tight and causing pelvic floor pain or weakness.
• Intramuscular Stimulation ( IMS ) : a needling technique to release chronically tight external muscles around the lower back and hips.
• Western Acupuncture: may be used to help reduce inflammation and pain, to lower stress and to relax the patient where needed.
• Clinical Pilates Exercise. We offer unique one to one Pilates based spine stabilization and core training to ensure sustainability of results.
