Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy
Recovery and comprehensive well-being.
At Fisitania, we understand that pelvic floor health is critical to the overall well-being of our patients. Often, this complex muscular system is unknown and underestimated, leading to dysfunctions that affect the quality of life of many people. As physiotherapists specialising in the treatment of the pelvic floor, we address both the functional and emotional aspects that affect this complex system, working with a global and personalised approach.
The pelvis is an area of the body that, although relatively small, encompasses a large number of essential functions. In our center, we treat a wide variety of symptoms and sequelae derived from disorders in this area, ranging from urological and gynecological problems to proctological and sexual, always with the aim of improving your health, mobility and quality of life.
What is pelvic floor physiotherapy?
Pelvic floor physiotherapy specialises in the treatment of dysfunctions related to the muscles and structures that make up this region, which includes the bladder, uterus, rectum, perineal muscles and abdomen. However, for effective treatment, it is crucial to address the entire abdomino-lumbo-pelvic-perineal complex (CALPP), as these muscles and tissues interact with each other. Through a comprehensive approach, we treat not only the pelvic floor, but also the abdomen, diaphragm, and lumbopelvic stability, which are essential for proper body functionality.
How do we work at Fisitania?
At our clinic, pelvic floor physiotherapy is not just a local treatment, but an approach that includes a complete analysis of the wholeness of your body. Each treatment plan is customized according to the patient’s specific needs, taking into account their medical history, lifestyle habits, predisposing factors, and any previous diagnoses. In addition, at Fisitania, we are committed to informing and educating our patients about the importance of pelvic floor health, demystifying taboos and offering clear and accessible answers.
Through advanced techniques and the use of cutting-edge technology, we help our patients regain functionality and improve symptoms of various dysfunctions. These range from urinary incontinence to sexual dysfunctions, including post-surgical disorders or the sequelae of gynaecological, urological and oncological diseases.
