Pelvic Floor
Physical Therapy
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy is a specialized approach targeting the pelvic floor muscles—those that form a supportive sling for pelvic organs, aiding in bowel and bladder function, sexual health, and stability.
At Indigo Physiotherapy, our goal is to help patients address these essential functions in a comfortable, compassionate environment where they can experience significant relief and restored quality of life.
