Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and Pelvic Pain

Pelvic floor issues are common and treatable. If you’re living with urinary leakage, urgency/frequency, a feeling of heaviness or prolapse, post-natal changes, or pelvic pain (pain with sitting, intercourse, tampons, or medical exams), our specialist team can help. At Prime Sports Physiotherapy in Edinburgh, we deliver confidential, evidence-based women’s health physiotherapy that restores confidence, comfort, and performance whether you’re returning to running post-baby, lifting in the gym, or simply wanting to move without worry.

Our clinicians have advanced training across pelvic health, post-natal rehab, and pain science, with a practical, athlete-informed approach to impact sports (running, jumping, lifting). You’ll receive a plan built around your goals reducing symptoms now while building long-term strength, coordination, and resilience.

Conditions we treat: stress/urge incontinence, urgency/frequency, prolapse symptoms, post-natal recovery (including diastasis and C-section scar care), pelvic girdle pain, menopause-related changes, vulvodynia/vaginismus/dyspareunia, and leakage during impact exercise.

• Private, supportive consult: We take a thorough history (bladder/bowel, pain, activity, goals). You can bring a chaperone.
• Assessment you control: With consent, this may include an internal pelvic floor exam. If you prefer, we can assess externally (breath mechanics, abdominal wall, hips, posture, movement tests).
• Personalised treatment: Education, manual therapy and scar work, pelvic floor coordination, graded strength, breath mechanics, bladder strategies, and a clear return-to-running/impact pathway if desired.

Progress you can feel: You’ll leave with simple exercises and a step-by-step plan. We review and progress regularly.

You don’t have to “just live with it.” With targeted pelvic floor physiotherapy, you can reduce symptoms, move confidently, and return to the activities you love.
