About the treatment
What is pelvic health care?
Pelvic health care looks at the muscles, joints and connective tissue of the pelvis, including the pelvic floor — the group of muscles that supports the bladder, bowel and reproductive organs. When these muscles are weak, overly tight or poorly coordinated, they can contribute to bladder leakage, urgency, pelvic pain and other symptoms.
Pelvic floor muscle training is a well-studied, first-line conservative treatment for urinary incontinence in women. Pelvic health care also commonly covers pregnancy-related pelvic pain, recovery after childbirth, and abdominal separation (diastasis recti). These concerns are common, and they can affect people of any gender.
Appointments are private and one-on-one. Your practitioner explains each part of the assessment before it happens, and you decide what you are comfortable with.
What treatment may include
Pelvic floor muscle training
Exercises to strengthen, relax or coordinate the pelvic floor, taught and progressed for you.
Bladder and bowel strategies
Practical guidance on fluids, toileting routines, and managing urgency.
Pregnancy and postpartum care
Support for pelvic girdle pain, returning to exercise, and recovery after birth.
Abdominal separation (diastasis recti)
Assessment and graded exercise to help restore tension and function through the abdominal wall.
Education
A clear explanation of how the pelvic floor works and what may be contributing to your symptoms.

Before your visit
Good to know.
- You can ask questions, pause, or decline any part of the assessment at any time.
- It can help to note your symptoms for a few days beforehand — for example, how often you use the washroom and when leaks or pain happen.
- After giving birth, many people start once they have had their six-week check with their doctor or midwife.
- See a doctor promptly for blood in your urine, new loss of bladder or bowel control, or numbness around the groin.
