16.01.2022 Welcome to WOW Aline Filipe - The Pelvic Tuner ENG. PROUD TO HAVE YOU !!!

16.01.2022 Prolapse & Pessaries Pelvic organ prolapse is when one or more of the pelvic organs like bladder, bowel and uterus drop into the vagina causing a bulge/lump, heaviness and dragging sensation. Prolapse occurs due to damage of the support structures of the pelvic floor including muscles, fascia and ligaments.... Pelvic floor specialist physios can help you with prolapse where Pelvic floor retraining is critical in the overall support of the pelvic organs. What is a pessary and how does it help to manage with Pelvic organ prolapse. A pessary is a silicone device that is inserted into the vagina to help support a pelvic organ prolapse. A pessary is a long term, removable, non-surgical way of supporting the pelvic organs in a better position to relieve your symptoms. In some women, especially younger women or those in the early post-partum phase, we can even see recovery of the prolapse. In these cases, the pessary is used as a temporary support, a similar idea to using a knee or ankle brace to support a ligament whilst it heals. What kind of pessary should I have? The decision about which type of pessary each woman should use depends on the type of prolapse and the symptoms it causes. With a best fitted pessary, you wont be able to feel it and you can carry on your normal daily activities. If you are concerned, feel free to call us as we are here to help and empower you to embark on pelvic floor retraining. #prolapse #pessary #postnatal #hillsdistrictmums #pelvicfloorhealth #womenshealth #wowphysio #worldofwomen #wow

15.01.2022 World Continence Week 2020 Incontinence is common, but NOT normal. Bladder and bowel continence issues are more prevalent in Women, but can also occur in Men and Children. ... Research suggests that 30-40 % of women and 10% of men has shown loss of bladder and bowel control. With aging, Incontinence issues tend to increase, but should never be welcomed as just a normal part of aging. It is vital to sought help early on as incontinence can influence a persons quality of life. Conservative management incorporating pelvic floor re-training is suggested as first line treatment. With proper assessment, teaching pelvic floor muscle exercises correctly and education about healthy bladder and bowel, 80 % of people can benefit. At WOW Physio, We do a thorough examination of your condition and will also check your ability to perform correct pelvic floor contractions. Assessment of pelvic floor muscles can be done either with real time ultrasound or internal vaginal / rectal examination depending on your choice and consent. Post assessment, we will explain to you in simple terms the factors that may be having an effect on your pelvic health and design a pelvic floor retraining programme to help you achieve your goals.

11.01.2022 WOW physio is welcoming all wonderful Women to the first day of Womens Health week 2020. Today we are going to talk about the role of pelvic floor in female body. The pelvic floor is made up of a number of layers of muscle tissue and ligaments that are attached within the hammock of pelvis. They are connected to the pubic bone in the front, the tailbone at the back, between the sitting bones and also to the hip muscles deep inside the pelvis.... The muscles and ligaments support all of the organs present inside the pelvis including the bladder, small intestine, rectum, and, in women, the uterus and vagina. The pelvic floor controls the passage of urine and faeces through the urethra and anus. Muscular structures called sphincters surround the urethra and anus. When the pelvic floor muscles contract, the internal organs are lifted and the sphincters tighten around the openings. This sphincter contraction also prevents leaking of urine and stool. When the pelvic floor muscles relax, the sphincters open which enables urine and faeces to be eliminated. In addition to providing vital bladder and bowel control, pelvic floor muscles also contribute to sexual function. Strong pelvic floor muscles help in increasing sexual sensation and arousal. Pelvic floor muscle spasm however, can result in pain during intercourse and orgasm, as well as causing constipation and bladder problems. The ability of the pelvic floor muscles to both contract as well as relax is critical to normal bowel, bladder and sexual function. Pelvic floor dysfunction, be it weakness, laxity or spasm, can have a significant impact on overall health.

11.01.2022 Physiotherapists can play an active role in the management and prevention of incontinence. We need improved awareness in the community so that patients can acc...ess us, and strong collaborative relationships with other health professionals to ensure that the right care is provided at the right time. In the lead up to World Continence Week on 18-24 June, APA Womens, Mens and Pelvic Health National Vice-Chair Catherine Willis discusses the reasons to #ChoosePhysio for the prevention and treatment of incontinence.

03.01.2022 Mastitis is an inflammation of the breast often as a result of a blocked milk duct. Therapeutic ultrasound is a quick and effective non-pharmacological treatment for the inflammatory symptoms of Mastitis as it breaks down the blockage and prevents ongoing symptoms. It also enhances healing rates, tissue relaxation, local blood flow and tissue healing. We also focus on manual handling techniques such as lymphatic drainage, supportive taping, positioning and self-management tec...hniques to ease the pain and also to prevent recurrence. Seeking help from a womens health physio can be incredibly beneficial in keeping you on your breastfeeding track.
