Incontinence

At PFM Physio, we understand that incontinence, whether urinary or bowel-related, can impact every aspect of your daily life. We offer compassionate evidence-based pelvic floor physiotherapy for both women and men, helping you regain strength, reduce leakage, and rediscover confidence.

Women can experience urinary incontinence due to childbirth, surgery, ageing, or muscle weakness. If you leak when coughing, laughing, exercising or feel urgency or increased frequency, physiotherapy is a proven first-line treatment.


In Australia, 30% of men who see their GP report bladder or pelvic floor issues, yet most don't openly discuss their symptoms. Underlying contributors may include prostate enlargement or surgery, nerve damage, neurological conditions, urinary tract infections, or chronic health issues such as diabetes.


Combined, our team has over 35 years of experience and working with the incontinence problems for people of all genders. We collaborate closely with medical professionals to ensure care is holistic, confidential and tailored to you.


Incontinence is treatable and confidence can be regained with the right support.

Whether you're dealing with stress, urge or bowel incontinence, you don't have to just live with it.

At PFM Physio, we provide a confidential, evidence-based, and person-centered approach to help you take back control and improve your quality of life.
