New research by Santos and colleagues (2026) has highlighted what we already knew and see regularly in clinic: many breastfeeding mums experience genitourinary symptoms, but most don’t know they’re related to lactation, or that treatment is available. 
 
The postpartum period deserves the same attention to pelvic and va**nal health as pregnancy and birth do and we are just as passionate about helping women postpartum, as we are about preparing them for birth!
 
If you’re breastfeeding and experiencing va**nal dryness, pain with in*******se, bladder symptoms or pelvic discomfort, you don’t simply have to wait until you wean your baby, there are things pelvic physio can help with, in collaboration with your healthcare team!

If you’ve been told your bladder leakage is “just a weak pelvic floor”... it might not be that simple.
 
Stress urinary incontinence (leaking with coughing, sneezing, running, jumping or lifting) can happen for a number of reasons. That’s why we don’t just assess muscle strength.
 
At The Physiotherapy Clinic, we take a comprehensive approach. Along with understanding your symptoms, we assess how the bladder, urethra and pelvic floor are functioning using va**nal examination and, where appropriate, transperineal ultrasound. We also look at how your body is moving as a whole, to see what pressures are being placed on the bladder and how you absorb force. 
 
For many women, the answer isn’t more squeezing. It’s tweaking how you move. It’s sometimes providing external support. A va**nal pessary can reduce or even stop leakage during exercise and everyday activities, and for many women it’s genuinely life-changing.
 
Finding the right pessary is a little like solving a puzzle. The best shape and size is different for every woman.
That’s exactly what Hannah is exploring through a quality improvement project, looking at how our assessment findings relate to successful pessary fitting, with the goal of making the fitting process even more efficient and effective.
 
If you’re experiencing bladder leakage with exercise or everyday activities, we’d love to help!

If you’ve started rushing to the toilet more, waking overnight to wee, or getting recurrent UTIs during perimenopause or menopause, it’s easy to think it’s “just part of getting older.”
 
But it doesn’t have to be.
 
Many women are surprised to learn that these bladder symptoms can be part of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). As oestrogen levels decline, it’s not just the va**na that’s affected, the bladder and urethra are too.
 
The most important thing to know? These symptoms are common, but they’re not something you have to just put up with.
 
At The Physiotherapy Clinic, we assess the whole picture, from your bladder habits and pelvic floor function to your lifestyle and exercise. We also work closely with your GP or gynaecologist because, for many women, local va**nal oestrogen is an important part of evidence-based care.
 
If any of this sounds familiar, it’s worth having the conversation, and we love having it!

If you’ve reached your 40s and suddenly feel like everything seems to hurt a little more and take a little longer to recover, you’re not alone. 
 
A recent systematic review and meta-analysis of 93,021 women found that muscle and joint pain was reported by 40% of premenopausal women, increasing to 57% during perimenopause and 59% after menopause.
 
The important caveat: this research shows an association, not that perimenopause directly causes musculoskeletal pain. The authors also highlighted how little research has explored the specific conditions behind these symptoms (so as always, we need more research!!).
 
Our takeaway? New aches, pains and changes in your body during perimenopause deserve to be understood, not simply dismissed as ageing. We do this by assessing your pelvic floor in the context of your whole body, understanding the common connections between your pelvis and your aches and pains. 
 
We know the benefits of strength training through perimenopause and beyond, our goal is to help you do this safely, without pain and with excellent pelvic floor function!

Lots of things change during perimenopause, particularly with your pelvic floor.
 
Some changes you might not expect?
 
Getting up to wee more often overnight.
Recurrent UTIs.
Putting your keys in the front door and suddenly needing to RUSH to the toilet (or leaking before you get there).
A new feeling of pressure or heaviness during strength training (which, yes, you absolutely should still be doing!). 
 
Pelvic floor changes are common during perimenopause, but that doesn’t mean you just have to put up with them.

We love AI for admin, systems, stats and complex theories. But when it comes to patient care, we’ve got a few issues. Why can’t AI replace your women’s health physio?

Our assessment is hands-on. We assess the pelvic floor in context of the whole body of the whole person in front of us. AI can’t assess your movement, breathing, posture, pelvic floor muscle function or perform an internal examination when clinically indicated. These findings help us understand what’s contributing to your symptoms (and we’ve trained our hands over lots of years to tell us even more).

Every woman is different. AI provides general information, a women’s health physiotherapist tailors assessment, treatment and exercise to your individual body, goals, stage of life and medical history.

Treatment goes beyond advice. Our session can include anything and everything from manual therapy, real-time ultrasound, exercise, pessary fitting and ongoing progression based on how you’re responding.

Clinical reasoning matters. We work to identify when symptoms are normal, when they require further investigation, and when referral to another health professional is appropriate and we pride ourselves on nurturing a wide referral network for our patients!

Most importantly? We care!
