Physiotherapy
Pelvic and Women's Health
Physiotherapy in Women's Health is a specialised area that works in the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of various physical and functional alterations that affect the female body throughout life.
It covers everything from preparation for childbirth and the postpartum period to the menopause and healthy ageing, as well as issues related to sexual function, urinary and faecal incontinence and postural changes.
More than treating, the purpose of women's physiotherapy is to care for, educate and empower, helping each woman to understand and appreciate how her body works.
