What is pelvic floor physiotherapy?

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles at the bottom of the pelvis. These muscles play an important role in urinating, bowel movements, posture and the stability of the body.

When these muscles don't work together properly, for example with a tense pelvic floor or muscles that are too weak, complaints can arise.
With targeted exercise therapy you learn to:

  • Recognise your pelvic floor muscles better
  • Tense and relax the muscles in the right way
  • Restore balance in your everyday movement
  • Reduce and prevent complaints through targeted exercise therapy

Breathing, posture and core stability (the stability of your trunk) also play an important role.


How we work at Fysico Rotterdam

At Fysico Rotterdam we take a personal and practical approach. We look not only at the complaint, but at your overall situation and daily load capacity.

Treatment focuses on:

  • Improving muscle function
  • Optimising posture and movement patterns
  • Gaining insight into your body
  • Giving practical advice for daily life

We take the time to understand your complaints properly and work with you on a suitable treatment plan.

Treatment with care and trust

Pelvic floor complaints are often personal and sometimes hard to talk about. That's why we think it's important that you feel at ease.

We offer:

  • A safe and calm environment
  • Personal attention
  • Discreet and respectful support

Together we work step by step on improving your complaints and your quality of life.

Treatments at Fysico Rotterdam are claimed as regular physiotherapy, not as specialised pelvic physiotherapy. This may affect the reimbursement, depending on your insurance.

Good to know

There is no registered pelvic physiotherapist (MSc) working at Fysico Rotterdam. However, our team includes a physiotherapist with extensive experience in treating pelvic and pelvic floor complaints, who has specialised in this area since 2002.

We always start with an accessible and practical approach, focusing on posture, breathing, muscle control and movement patterns. In many cases, complaints can already be treated effectively this way, without the immediate need for specialist or more invasive examination.

For many patients this is a comfortable first step, as the treatment is accessible and less invasive. We always look first at the minimum needed to help you, and only call in specialist care when necessary.

If your complaints are more complex or specialist pelvic physiotherapy is needed, we will always refer you to a registered pelvic physiotherapist (MSc) within our network. That way you can be sure of the right care at the right time.
