Pelvic floor physiotherapy may help if you are experiencing:

  • Bladder or bowel concerns, including incontinence or urgency
  • Pelvic organ prolapse
  • Pelvic pain or discomfort
  • Pain with intercourse
  • Abdominal separation

You do not need to be experiencing symptoms to benefit - pelvic floor physiotherapy can also support education, prevention and confidence in movement.

Pricing

Initial Pelvic Floor Consultation (60 minutes)

$204

Your initial pelvic floor consultation is a comprehensive assessment designed to understand your symptoms, health history and goals. These appointments are conducted by our pelvic health physiotherapists, who have postgraduate qualifications in pelvic health.

The session typically includes:

  • A detailed discussion of your concerns and medical history
  • Education around pelvic floor and core function
  • A physical assessment where appropriate
  • Guidance on treatment options and next steps

This appointment is suitable for those experiencing pelvic floor symptoms, as well as pre and postnatal clients seeking specialised assessment and support.

Please note: Your first pelvic floor appointment must be an initial consultation, even if you have attended the studio previously.

Subsequent Pelvic Floor Appointments

Subsequent Pelvic Floor – Standard (40 minutes)

$165

Following your initial consultation, standard follow-up appointments allow us to reassess symptoms, continue treatment and progress your personalised care plan. These sessions focus on education, hands-on treatment where appropriate, and tailored exercise progression.

Subsequent Pelvic Floor – Extended (60 minutes)

$194

If your concerns are more complex or require additional treatment time, an extended follow-up appointment may be recommended. This allows your physiotherapist more time to address symptoms thoroughly and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
