Pelvic organ prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common yet often misunderstood condition that affects many women worldwide. It arises when the pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum, descend into the vaginal canal due to weakened pelvic floor muscles and ligaments. At Family Physio, we are trained to fit pessaries to help to eliminate this issue.

Exclusive Pregnancy Physio App
As a passionate Women’s Health Physiotherapist, business owner, mom of two and wife, I know all too well the everyday physical and mental challenges pregnant women go through!
Seeing the amount of pregnant women that walked into my physio clinic in large amounts of pain broke my heart! I knew that this was unnecessary and robbed them of the joy that Pregnancy can and should bring.
This is how Pregnancy Physio started!
