Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy in Vancouver
Pelvic floor therapy strengthens the muscles of the pelvic region, helping with bladder and bowel control, postnatal recovery, and overall core stability. It is useful for both men and women experiencing pelvic weakness or discomfort.
Our registered physiotherapists work with you to understand how the pelvic floor muscles are functioning and how that relates to your symptoms, goals, and medical or surgical history. From there, we develop a treatment plan tailored to you.
What Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Helps With
Pelvic floor physiotherapy may be appropriate if you are experiencing symptoms related to pelvic floor dysfunction, including:
- Urinary incontinence or bladder control issues
- Bowel control concerns or changes in bowel habits
- Pelvic pain or chronic pelvic pain
- Painful intercourse or changes in sexual function
- Pelvic pressure or pelvic organ prolapse symptoms
- Tailbone pain or discomfort around the pubic bone
- Postpartum recovery concerns
- Pelvic symptoms related to pregnancy or surgery
If these symptoms are affecting daily comfort, movement, or confidence, a physiotherapy assessment can help determine whether pelvic floor physiotherapy is appropriate and what treatment options may help.
How Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Works
Pelvic floor physiotherapy focuses on improving how the pelvic floor muscles activate, relax, and coordinate with breathing and movement. This helps support bladder and bowel control, pelvic organ support, and overall pelvic muscle function.
Physiotherapy treatment may include:
- Guided pelvic floor exercises to improve strength and control
- Breathing and coordination strategies to support muscle activity
- Manual therapy when appropriate
- Education to support daily activities and long-term pelvic health
Treatment is introduced gradually and adjusted based on your symptoms, comfort, and how your body responds over time.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy FAQs
A pelvic floor physiotherapist assesses pelvic floor muscle function and provides treatment to improve strength, coordination, and control related to bladder, bowel, pelvic pain, and pelvic health concerns.
There is no universal set of exercises. Pelvic floor exercises vary depending on muscle function and symptoms. Your physiotherapist will guide what is appropriate for you.
Some exercises can be done independently, but proper assessment and guidance help ensure exercises are effective and do not worsen symptoms.
