Women's Health

Women’s Health Physiotherapy is a specialised field that treats conditions uniquely associated with the female population. In Australia, Women’s Health issues are widely under-reported but are known to have a significant effect on quality of life. This means that women ‘suffer in silence’ or live with problems, often unaware that help is available. In many cases, Physiotherapy can be of enormous benefit.

Belmont City Physiotherapy offers a personalised service that provides assessment, management and treatment of these disorders. We also provide pre-and post-natal care for women during and after pregnancy.

All assessments and treatments are conducted in a discreet and private environment with a post-graduate trained female Women’s Health Physiotherapist.

Some of the conditions we treat are listed here. We appreciate the sensitive nature of these, and guarantee our professionalism, respect, and above all your privacy.
