Pelvic Health Physiotherapy · Truganina · Melbourne West
Pelvic floor problems are common, but they are not something you simply have to live with. At Wellcare Physio Truganina, we provide pelvic floor physiotherapy for patients from Truganina, Tarneit, Hoppers Crossing, Werribee, Williams Landing, Point Cook and surrounding Melbourne West suburbs.
We help women and men with bladder leakage, urinary incontinence, urgency, pelvic floor weakness, prolapse symptoms, pelvic pain, postpartum recovery, menopause-related changes and post-prostate surgery continence concerns. Treatment may include pelvic floor muscle training, bladder and bowel strategies, core rehabilitation, education and, where suitable, non-invasive strengthening with the pelvicare pelvic chair.
Symptoms We Treat
People often search for help because of a symptom, not because they know exactly what their pelvic floor is doing. Pelvic floor physiotherapy may help if you are noticing any of the following issues.
Leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, laugh, lift, run, jump or exercise is often linked with stress urinary incontinence and pelvic floor weakness.
Needing to rush to the toilet, going too often, or feeling worried you will not make it in time can be part of bladder control dysfunction.
A dragging, heaviness, bulging or pressure sensation may be related to pelvic organ support changes and should be assessed by a qualified health professional.
After pregnancy or birth, pelvic floor physiotherapy can support bladder control, core recovery, scar comfort, pelvic strength and return to exercise.
Pelvic pain can involve muscle tension, weakness, coordination issues, bladder sensitivity, bowel factors or other contributors that need individual assessment.
Men may benefit from pelvic floor physiotherapy for bladder leakage, post-prostate surgery recovery, pelvic floor weakness and confidence with daily activity.
Treatment Approach
Pelvic floor treatment is not one-size-fits-all. Some people need strengthening, some need better coordination, some need bladder retraining, and some need help relaxing overactive pelvic floor muscles. Your physiotherapist will guide the plan based on your symptoms, goals and health history.
Understand how the pelvic floor supports bladder, bowel, core and sexual function, and why symptoms may be happening.
Learn how to correctly activate, relax and coordinate the pelvic floor muscles during daily activities, exercise and toileting.
Practical advice may include bladder retraining, urgency strategies, fluid habits, toileting routines and constipation management.
Support for return to walking, lifting, gym, running and sport after pregnancy, birth or abdominal changes.
For suitable patients, the pelvicare chair can support pelvic floor strengthening by stimulating deep muscle contractions while you remain fully clothed.
Your program may progress from gentle control and awareness to strengthening, load tolerance and confidence with real-life movement.

Why It Matters
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that helps support the bladder, bowel and pelvic organs. When these muscles are weak, tight, poorly coordinated or overloaded, symptoms can affect bladder control, bowel control, exercise confidence, intimacy, posture and daily comfort.
Many people delay seeking help because they feel embarrassed or assume leakage, urgency or pelvic heaviness is normal after birth, menopause, ageing or surgery. Pelvic floor physiotherapy gives you a private and practical place to understand what is happening and what can be done.
Book an Appointment
A proper assessment helps identify whether your symptoms are mainly related to pelvic floor weakness, overactivity, bladder habits, bowel habits, recovery after pregnancy or surgery, or a combination of factors. From there, your physiotherapist can recommend a clear treatment plan.
