Pelvic Health: An Integral Part of Well-being

Pelvic health is a critical aspect of maintaining overall health, function, and quality of life.

Comprehensive Approach to Pelvic Health at Rebound Health Centre

At Rebound Health Centre, we understand the intricacies of pelvic health. Our team of physiotherapists with specialized postgraduate education in pelvic health ensures a comprehensive approach to diagnosing, managing, and treating pelvic health disorders.

Initial Assessment

The first step towards identifying and treating pelvic floor dysfunction is a thorough assessment. Our initial assessment includes an in-depth review of the patient's medical history, physical examination, and evaluation of their symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. This comprehensive approach allows us to identify the root cause of the issue and develop effective treatment plans accordingly.

Personalized Treatment Plans

After the initial assessment, our team creates an individualized treatment plan tailored to meet each patient's unique needs. These plans may include pelvic floor strengthening exercises, bladder and bowel management strategies, pain management techniques, and lifestyle modifications.

Utilizing the Regional Interdependence Model

What sets us apart is our use of the regional interdependence model. This approach allows us to look at the body as a whole and not just the symptomatic area. By considering how different parts of the body interact and influence each other, we can provide care that addresses the root cause rather than just treating the symptoms. This model has proven to be particularly beneficial in pelvic health, as the pelvic area is closely connected to several other parts of the body.

Continuous Patient Education

Patient education is a key aspect of our services. We believe that empowering patients with the knowledge they need to understand their conditions can aid in their recovery process. Our team focuses on providing comprehensive education regarding the pelvic floor's structure, function, and role in overall health and wellness.
