Trimetrics Physiotherapy Clinic offers a unique suite of services in the specialized area of women’s health. At Trimetrics Physiotherapy, we understand that pelvic health concerns can impact anyone with female genitalia, regardless of gender identity or expression. This can be a difficult and sensitive aspect of health and Trimetrics therapists are committed to caring for you in a confidential respectful manner. We will inform you about all findings and will support your treatment with evidence-based education.

• Incontinence: leaking urine, gas or stool due to coughing, sneezing, changing position, running, jumping and/or a sense of urgency to get to the bathroom. 
• Problems emptying your bladder or bowel completely
• Pelvic organ prolapse or pressure, heaviness or bulging in your vagina or rectum
• Pelvic pain

• Coccydynia or pain in the tailbone area

Our pelvic floor physiotherapist focuses on treating pelvic pain but does not provide care for pelvic trauma; clients needing trauma-specific support can be referred to an appropriate specialist.

Assessment and treatment may include:

• Orthopedic examination of spine, pelvis, upper and lower body.
• Internal Assessment: this is a way of allowing the therapist to evaluate the tension and strength in the internal pelvic muscles and assess for pelvic organ prolapse.
• Myofascial release: this is muscle work used to release and relax muscles that are too tight and causing pelvic floor pain or weakness.
• Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS): a needling technique to release chronically tight external muscles around the lower back and hips.
• Western Acupuncture: may be used to help reduce inflammation and pain, to lower stress and to relax the patient where needed.
• Clinical Pilates Exercise. We offer unique one to one Pilates based spine stabilization and core training to ensure sustainability of results.

At Trimetrics Physiotherapy, we’re committed to helping you regain control of your pelvic health and improve your quality of life. With our expert women’s health pelvic physiotherapy services, you can look forward to a brighter, more comfortable future.
