✦ PELVIC FLOOR REHABILITATION

Pelvic Floor Therapy

Q: How long does pelvic floor therapy take?

Most programmes run for 8–12 weeks with weekly sessions and daily home exercises. Many patients see significant improvement within a few weeks of consistent practice.

Q: Is biofeedback uncomfortable?

Biofeedback is non-invasive, painless, and well-tolerated. It uses gentle sensors to provide visual feedback that helps you learn to control your pelvic floor muscles effectively.

Q: Can pelvic floor therapy avoid surgery?

For mild to moderate dysfunction, pelvic floor therapy alone can often resolve symptoms. For more severe cases, it works as supportive therapy alongside surgical treatment for better outcomes.

Q: Will it help after childbirth?

Yes — postpartum pelvic floor therapy is highly effective for women with weakness, mild incontinence, or pelvic floor symptoms after delivery. Starting therapy early gives the best results.
