About us
We specialise in pelvic health and work closely with a variety of departments within Kingston Hospital.
We treat a range of conditions including urinary urgency and incontinence, faecal urgency and incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse and pelvic pain. We also see patients who are suffering from pregnancy related musculoskeletal issues such as pelvic girdle pain, lower back pain and carpal tunnel. Our treatment approach for all conditions is holistic and patient centred.
We routinely see women who have sustained either third or fourth degree tears. Midwives and consultants may also refer women who are experiencing any bladder, bowel or vaginal prolapse issues within 6 months of their delivery.
Women who are experiencing pregnancy-related pelvic or back pain will be signposted by their midwife to our physiotherapy advisory video.
If symptoms worsen, midwives, GPs and consultants may refer to our outpatient service where a virtual, face-to-face or group appointment will be arranged as appropriate.
Our treatment approach has a strong focus on pelvic floor muscle training and patient-centred lifestyle modifications.
