Recovering from the birth of your baby can be a challenging time. Our physiotherapists can assist with postnatal recovery following vaginal and caesarian birth.

To aid with healing of tears or episiotomies sustained during vaginal birth we have a state of the art therapeutic ultrasound machine which assist to reduce swelling and speed up the healing process. Therapeutic ultrasound is also very helpful for treating blocked milk ducts in breastfeeding women.

We also have a therapeutic LASER machine that is used to help heal wounds including perineal tears, episiotomies and cracked nipples. LASER is also helpful to reduce the pain and sensitivity of caesarian scar tissue.

Conditions that we can assist with include:

• Perineal scar tissue
• Caesarian scar tissue
• Abdominal separation
• Blocked milk ducts/mastitis
• Cracked nipples
• Pelvic floor weakness
• Bladder and bowel leakage
• Joint pain
• Pelvic floor safe return to exercise
