      <image:title>Pelvic Heath Physiotherapy - Hypertonic Pelvic Floor Muscles (PFMs)</image:title>
      <image:caption>When the muscles of the pelvic floor have too much tension (hypertonic) they can contribute to pelvic pain, urgency or frequency of the bowels and bladder, stress and urge incontinence, dyspareunia, interstitial cystitis, vaginismus and vulvodynia. Muscles that are high in tone can also be weak. Muscle over-activity must be treated prior to weakness; once the muscles can fully relax at rest, the strength of the muscles is reassessed and strength training exercises and treatment will follow accordingly. Hypertonic PFMs can cause the following symptoms: – Urinary urgency, frequency, stress and/or urge incontinence, hesitancy, painful urination, incomplete emptying – Constipation, straining and pain during and after bowel movements – Unexplained or unresolved pain in the low back, hips, pelvis and genital area or rectum – Pain during or after sexual intercourse, orgasm or stimulation</image:caption>

      <image:title>Pelvic Heath Physiotherapy - Hypotonic Pelvic Floor Muscles</image:title>
      <image:caption>When the muscles are have low-tone (hypotonic) they can cause stress incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Low tone muscles pelvic floor muscles need to be strengthened via a structured program aimed at increasing strength, endurance and control of specific muscles. Many people have difficulty isolating these muscles without at least one consultation with a pelvic health physiotherapist.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Physiotherapy - What is assessment?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Assessment is performed on a local (specific joints, ligaments and muscles) and global level (how different regions and systems of the body are interconnected), aiming to find the root cause of pain and dysfunction, and prevent future injury or dysfunction. Physiotherapists work to understand their client’s goals, educate them, and actively involve them in the healing process.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Physiotherapy - An individualized treatment approach</image:title>
      <image:caption>The health of an individual is uniquely affected by various internal (anatomical, physiological, mental, emotional) and external factors (such as daily activities performed, repetitive postures, stress). The physiotherapist takes these various factors into account to plan a treatment suitable to the unique needs of the individual. An active approach to treatment is beneficial as it assists persons to improve their body awareness and perception, correcting faulty movement/positional patterns, and teaching exercises to improve strength, stability, balance and flexibility. Treatment is often combined with various modalities such as: acupuncture and dry needling, and manual therapy techniques such as joint mobilizations, myofascial massage and soft tissue release.</image:caption>
