🦴 Osteoporosis & Alcohol Intake 🦴
Did you know heavy alcohol intake can negatively affect bone health and increase the risk of osteoporosis?

Research has shown that chronic heavy drinking can:
β–ͺ️ Reduce bone density
β–ͺ️ Weaken bone strength
β–ͺ️ Compromise bone quality
β–ͺ️ Increase the risk of osteoporosis and fractures

The effects may be particularly significant when heavy drinking occurs during adolescence and young adulthood β€” important years for building long-term bone strength.
Looking after our bones is an important part of overall health and wellbeing at every stage of life. Along with regular exercise, good nutrition and strength training, reducing alcohol intake can help support healthier bones into the future. πŸ’™

Small lifestyle changes can sometimes make a surprisingly big difference.

🍷 Alcohol & Bowel Cancer Risk 🍷
Did you know bowel cancer risk increases significantly when two or more alcoholic drinks are consumed per day?

Alcohol can affect both bowel and bladder health, contributing to:
β–ͺ️ Increased bowel cancer risk
β–ͺ️ Bladder irritation
β–ͺ️ Urinary urgency and frequency
β–ͺ️ Dehydration
β–ͺ️ Poor sleep and overall wellbeing

If you choose to drink alcohol, limiting the amount you consume may help support better long-term health.
Initiatives such as Dry July can also be a helpful opportunity to reflect on lifestyle habits and make positive changes for your overall wellbeing. πŸ’™
At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, we understand that bowel, bladder and pelvic health are all closely connected. Small lifestyle changes can sometimes make a surprisingly big difference.

πŸ’§ Dry July & Bladder Health πŸ’§
Did you know alcohol can have a significant effect on bladder and bowel function?
Alcohol acts as a diuretic, meaning it increases urine production and can contribute to:
β–ͺ️ Dehydration
β–ͺ️ Bladder irritation
β–ͺ️ Increased urinary frequency
β–ͺ️ Urgency
β–ͺ️ Night-time waking to urinate
β–ͺ️ Bed wetting in some people
For people already experiencing bladder sensitivity or pelvic floor symptoms, alcohol can sometimes make symptoms feel worse.

Taking part in Dry July may help improve:
✨ Bladder control
✨ Urgency symptoms
✨ Sleep quality
✨ Hydration
✨ Overall wellbeing
Reducing alcohol intake can also be a positive step toward supporting long-term bladder, bowel and pelvic health. πŸ’™
At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, we help people manage symptoms such as bladder urgency, leakage, pelvic floor dysfunction and bowel concerns with personalised assessment and treatment.

Small lifestyle changes can sometimes make a surprisingly big difference.

πŸ’› What is Dry July? πŸ’›
Dry July is a nationwide fundraiser that encourages people to go alcohol-free throughout July while raising funds to support Australians affected by cancer.
Thanks to the incredible efforts of participants each year, the Dry July Foundation helps fund practical and meaningful services for cancer patients, their families and carers across Australia.

These projects focus on improving:
β–ͺ️ Comfort
β–ͺ️ Care
β–ͺ️ Wellbeing
β–ͺ️ Support during treatment and recovery

Funds raised help cancer organisations provide services that make a genuine difference during an incredibly challenging time.
Dry July is also a wonderful opportunity to reflect on our own health and wellbeing. Many people notice benefits such as:
✨ Improved sleep
✨ Increased energy
✨ Better hydration
✨ Improved overall wellbeing
At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, we understand the importance of supporting health, recovery and quality of life for people navigating cancer treatment and rehabilitation. πŸ’™
Whether you participate for your own wellbeing or to support someone affected by cancer, every contribution helps make a difference.

πŸ’™ Has Your Health Fund Extras Cover Reset? πŸ’™
July 1st marks the start of a new financial year β€” and for many people, that means their health fund extras benefits may have reset.
If you reached your physiotherapy limit earlier in the year, it may be worth checking with your health fund to see whether your annual extras allowance has now renewed. 😊

At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy:
β–ͺ️ Patients with physiotherapy cover can claim on the spot using our in-clinic HICAPS system
β–ͺ️ Gap payments can be made via EFTPOS, credit card or cash
β–ͺ️ No additional payment processing fees apply

Pelvic floor symptoms such as bladder leakage, prolapse, pelvic pain and bowel concerns can have a significant impact on daily life β€” and many people delay treatment longer than they need to.
A new health fund year can be a great opportunity to prioritise your health and wellbeing. πŸ’™

πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Physical Activity & Bowel Health Awareness πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ
Did you know recreational physical activity can reduce the risk of colon cancer by approximately 16%?

Regular movement and exercise play an important role in overall bowel health, pelvic health and general wellbeing. However, many people avoid exercise because of symptoms such as:
β–ͺ️ Bladder leakage
β–ͺ️ Bowel urgency or leakage
β–ͺ️ Pelvic organ prolapse
β–ͺ️ Fear of accidents while exercising

The good news is that these symptoms can often be improved with appropriate treatment and pelvic floor rehabilitation.
At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, our Pelvic Floor Physiotherapists can help you explore safe and achievable exercise options while also treating symptoms of bladder and bowel urgency, leakage and prolapse.
You should not have to stop exercising because of pelvic floor symptoms. πŸ’™

πŸ’™ Understanding Stomas & Pelvic Floor Health πŸ’™
For some people undergoing bowel cancer surgery, it may be necessary for the surgeon to create an opening on the abdomen called a stoma. This allows waste to leave the body safely while the bowel heals or, in some cases, permanently.

A stoma may be:
β–ͺ️ Temporary β€” allowing the bowel time to recover after surgery
β–ͺ️ Permanent β€” depending on the location of the tumour and the surgery required
There are different types of stomas, and every person’s experience is unique.
When a temporary stoma is reversed, some people may experience:
β€’ Bowel urgency
β€’ Bowel leakage
β€’ Difficulty controlling bowel motions
β€’ Changes in bowel habits

Pelvic floor exercises and guidance from a Continence and Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist can often assist in improving bowel control, confidence and quality of life during recovery.
At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, we understand these conversations can feel sensitive and overwhelming. Support, education and individualised care can make a significant difference during recovery and rehabilitation. πŸ’™

🍎 Red Apple Day – Wednesday 17 June 2026 🍏
In support of Bowel Cancer Australia’s Annual Giving Day, Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy will have complimentary red and green apples available for clients visiting the practice on Wednesday 17th June. πŸ’™

Bowel Cancer Australia’s apple logo carries a powerful message of hope and early detection.
β–ͺ️ The outline of the apple symbolises the human bowel
β–ͺ️ The small hole in the apple represents a worm β€” if detected and removed early, the health of the apple and the tree can be protected
β–ͺ️ In the same way, bowel cancer can often be successfully treated when detected early
In fact, almost 99% of bowel cancer cases can be treated successfully when found in the earliest stage.
Red and green apples are also a healthy source of dietary fibre, supporting good bowel health and wellbeing. 🍎🍏
We encourage everyone to be aware of bowel cancer symptoms, participate in screening when eligible and speak with their GP if something doesn’t feel right.

Early detection truly saves lives.

πŸ’™ Bowel Cancer Awareness Month πŸ’™
Bowel cancer is one of Australia’s most common β€” and most preventable β€” cancers, yet many people are still unaware of the signs and symptoms.

Some important facts from Bowel Cancer Australia:
β–ͺ️ The lifetime risk of a bowel cancer diagnosis is 1 in 16 Australians
β–ͺ️ Bowel cancer is the 4th most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia
β–ͺ️ It is the 2nd deadliest cancer overall
β–ͺ️ 14,904 Australians are diagnosed each year
β–ͺ️ 5,372 Australians lose their lives to bowel cancer annually
β–ͺ️ 99% of cases can be treated successfully when detected early
Importantly, bowel cancer is also the deadliest cancer for Australians aged 25–54.
Symptoms may include:
β€’ Changes in bowel habits
β€’ Blood in the stool
β€’ Abdominal pain or bloating
β€’ Unexplained fatigue
β€’ Unexplained weight loss

Many younger Australians diagnosed with bowel cancer experience symptoms well before diagnosis, so listening to your body and seeking medical advice early is incredibly important.

At Complete Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, we understand that bowel health is closely connected to overall pelvic health and wellbeing. Conversations about bowel symptoms can feel difficult β€” but early awareness and early action truly save lives.
If something doesn’t feel right, please don’t ignore it.
