Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy in Edmonton
Reclaim Your Confidence, Comfort & Control

Are You Silently Struggling with Pelvic Discomfort or Incontinence?

  • Do you leak when you laugh, cough, or exercise?
  • Are you experiencing pressure, pain, or a “heaviness” down there?
  • Does intimacy feel uncomfortable or even painful?
  • Are you a man dealing with pelvic tension, pain, or urinary issues and not sure where to turn?
  • Just had a baby, and your body doesn’t quite feel the same?

At West Henday Physical Therapy, we understand how personal and frustrating pelvic health issues can be. Whether it’s discomfort, leakage, pressure, or pain, these challenges often go unspoken and untreated. That’s why we offer Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy in Edmonton, a focused service designed to help both men and women improve their pelvic health and get back to feeling like themselves again.

Our physiotherapists take the time to listen, assess, and build a plan that’s right for you—always in a private and respectful setting.

What Is Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy?

Pelvic floor physiotherapy focuses on helping the muscles in your lower abdomen and pelvic region work better. These muscles support important daily functions like going to the bathroom, sexual activity, and general physical comfort.

At West Henday Physical Therapy, we work with you to:

  • Identify what’s causing discomfort or dysfunction
  • Help retrain or strengthen the muscles that need support
  • Teach you strategies to manage symptoms at home

This therapy is about helping you feel normal again—without awkwardness, confusion, or rushed treatment.

How We Treat Pelvic Floor Conditions

At West Henday Physical Therapy, we focus on practical, one-on-one care that helps you feel in control of your body again. Whether you’re dealing with pain, pressure, incontinence, or muscle tightness, we tailor your treatment to what you need—not just what a textbook says.

We don’t rush. We explain everything clearly. And we always work at your comfort level.

1. Pelvic Muscle Coordination & Control Training

Many pelvic floor issues stem from muscles that are either too weak, too tight, or simply not working in sync with the rest of your body.

At our clinic, we assess how your pelvic muscles are functioning, then guide you through exercises that teach those muscles how to work at the right time and in the right way.

We help you:

  • Know how to engage and release your pelvic muscles properly
  • Build strength where it’s needed, and calm tension where it’s not
  • Improve timing and control for activities like sneezing, lifting, or using the washroom

This step lays the foundation for better bladder control, less discomfort, and more confidence in everyday movement.

2. Gentle Manual Therapy

Sometimes, tension or tightness in the pelvic area is what’s causing the problem. Our physiotherapists are trained in gentle hands-on techniques to help release restricted areas, improve circulation, and reduce discomfort.

Manual therapy may include:

  • External work on the abdomen, hips, or lower back
  • Internal treatment (only with your full consent) to release tension in the pelvic muscles
  • Myofascial release to help minimize pain and improve mobility

You’re always in control of what’s done, and we explain each step before we begin.

3. Simple, At-Home Exercises

Your recovery doesn’t stop when you leave our clinic. We’ll teach you easy, effective exercises you can do at home—without equipment, complicated routines, or long time commitments.

These exercises are customized to:

  • Build lasting strength in your pelvic and core muscles
  • Reinforce the techniques learned in clinic
  • Fit it into your daily routine without added stress

You’ll never feel like you’re “guessing” what to do—we’ll guide you every step of the way.

4. Bladder and Bowel Routine Coaching

Many pelvic floor issues are tied to poor habits you may not even realize you’ve developed. We’ll talk openly about your daily routines and help you make small, practical changes that improve control and reduce urgency or leakage.

This includes:

  • Identifying triggers that cause urgency or discomfort
  • Teaching you how to retrain your bladder for more predictable bathroom visits
  • Guidance on positioning and strategies for easier bowel movements

The goal is to help you feel more in control, with fewer surprises or worries.

5. Breathing & Relaxation Techniques

Stress and shallow breathing often go hand-in-hand with pelvic tension. We’ll teach you simple breathing strategies that help your pelvic floor muscles work in coordination with the rest of your body.

This can help with:

  • Overactive pelvic floor muscles
  • Anxiety-related pelvic symptoms
  • Better sleep and daily comfort

These are tools you can use anytime, anywhere—whether you’re at work, at home, or just trying to unwind.
