Johanita Cronje Physiotherapy for Womens' Health

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is not just a local practice preference- it is internationally recognised, evidece-based and follows guidelines for practice.

Leading international organisations ( International Continence Society, American Urologica Association, the European Urology Association and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists ) recommends pelvic floor physiotherapy as initial conservative management for pelvic floor dysfunction.

Change begins with the patient: active participation of individualised patient specific exercises and lifestyle adjustments is what drives lasting improvements.

Contact your local pelvic floor physiotherapist for an individual assessment and treatment.

Leaking urine? Pelvic heaviness? Pain with intimacy?

Being a women does not mean tolerating symptoms in silence. Early action can bring change.

Research across the UK, and the US shows that up to 40% of women experience pelvic floor dysfunction (and these figures mostly represent women who actually access health care for their pelvic symptoms).

Early pelvic floor physiotherapy is recommended for pelvic floor symptoms - and early intervention in the form of conservative treatment is the key.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy encompass a comprehensive pelvic floor assessment and a tailored treatment plan for your individual pelvic floor symptoms.

Pelvic pain is often visceral — and this matters.

Visceral pain:
• is diffuse and harder to localise
• overlaps across organ systems
• is strongly linked to autonomic function

This differs from musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain.

Clinical frameworks must reflect these differences.

Pelvic Pain Awareness Month

Pelvic pain is defined as pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic region that may involve the reproductive organs, bladder, bowel, muscles, or nerves. It can be persistent and often has multiple contributing factors.

Pelvic pain is common, complex, and frequently misunderstood — and it can affect people of all genders.

May is Pelvic Pain Awareness Month.
Join us in raising awareness, improving understanding, and supporting better care.

* What is normal development and when should I be worried?
* Should I be concerned if my circle is comparing my baby's development to others?
* What can I do to stimulate my little one at home?
* When can I get back to exercising/ running again?
* Why do I leak urine after having a baby when I cough/ sneeze/ laugh?
* What is diastasis recti and how do I know if I have it
* Will s*x always hurt after having babies?
* Im experiencing mood swings: should I be worried?

Our speakers for the morning will be:
