Patient Success Stories - Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy
Noreen came to us for our pelvic floor treatment with our Principal Physiotherapist Aileen Maguire.
Tight pelvic floor muscles can contribute to bowel pain, constipation, and delayed healing of fissures. Physiotherapy can help ease symptoms and improve comfort in daily life.
See how Norren experienced the service in her own words:
“I attended Aileen for physiotherapy for a fissure and overly tight muscles in my pelvic floor, which meant that I was experiencing a lot of pain while emptying my bowels, because my muscles went into spasm every time. This resulted in me developing constipation, which made everything more painful. I also experienced discomfort while sitting for long periods of time due to the fissure. The treatment, exercises and recommendations I received from Aileen were very helpful in enabling the release of my spasming muscles, which in turn gave the fissure time to heal. My muscles have developed more strength and flexibility on account of physiotherapy, targeted exercises, and making adjustments to the way I sit while at work. Change is gradual, so it is important to follow the programme Aileen puts in place. I have experienced tearing a couple of times since completing treatment, however, the fissure has healed quickly each time, as my muscles no longer go into spasm. I had no idea this form of specialist physiotherapy existed until Aileen was recommended to me by a consultant colorectal surgeon”
