We are passionate at BodyPoise to address the known discrepancy in treatment between men and women. The first women’s health survey in 2022 reported that 84% of women found times they were not listened to by health care professionals at some point along their health journey. Often shamed by these experiences, and the conditions themselves, such as leaking, leads to many women tolerating conditions unnecessarily.
It may help to know that you are not alone. Did you know that in the UK:
- 1 in 3 women experience urinary leaking
- 70% of women start leaking after giving birth
- 50% of women who have given birth go on to have a pelvic organ prolapse or vaginal prolapse
- 60% of women who have not given birth will experience significant bladder or bowel symptoms
The good news is that pelvic floor muscle work and core work with a physiotherapist resolves or significantly reduces leaking and the risk of vaginal or pelvic organ prolapse in later in life.
At BodyPoise we want to educate, reduce taboos around these issues and offer quality, affordable treatment. We commonly treat these conditions, but please still get in touch if what you’re experiencing isn’t listed:
- leaking / urinary incontinence
- prolapse rehab with or without surgery
- pre-and postnatal Pilates in pregnancy to reduce potential problems
- pregnancy related problems e.g. back or pelvic pain, carpel tunnel syndrome
- issues after giving birth, for example postpartum diastasis recti and urinary incontinence dysfunction
- hysterectomy rehab
- post operative rehab for other surgical procedures
