Spire’s Team of Pelvic Health trained Physiotherapists provide a functional and whole-body approach to pelvic floor rehabilitation. Our Pelvic Health Therapists are certified to perform internal examinations, which includes the ability to assess vaginally or rectally if required. Not all assessment and treatment require an internal component if it is not within the patient’s comfort. As an alternative, there are many external treatment approaches that can help address pelvic floor related concerns. Each visit will include patient specific education, internal and/or external hands-on treatment, as well as exercise and movement guidance. We are prepared to address all the difficult subjects that encompass pelvic health in a safe, supportive and motivating environment.
