Womens Health

Every woman deserves to move confidently, without pain or worry. Whether you’re recovering after childbirth, managing pelvic floor symptoms, or experiencing changes linked to menopause, women’s health physiotherapy can help. At Prime Sports Physiotherapy in Edinburgh, we provide confidential, evidence-based care designed to help you feel strong, supported, and in control of your body again.

Our specialist women’s health physiotherapists combine advanced clinical expertise with a supportive, respectful approach. We understand that pelvic health concerns can feel sensitive, that’s why every session takes place in a private, comfortable environment where you are listened to and treated with care.

We help women of all ages manage and overcome:

• Pelvic floor weakness or overactivity

• Stress or urge incontinence (leakage with coughing, sneezing, or exercise)

• Pelvic organ prolapse and heaviness

• Post-natal recovery, including C-section and diastasis recti

• Pelvic pain, painful intercourse, or tightness

• Pregnancy-related discomfort and post-menopausal changes

At Prime, our focus is on restoring function, confidence, and long-term strength. Whether your goal is to return to running, lift your children, or simply move freely without fear.

Your first appointment begins with a detailed discussion about your symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. With your consent, an internal pelvic floor assessment may be offered to provide the most accurate diagnosis, though external or movement-based assessments are equally effective where preferred.

Your physiotherapist will then explain your findings clearly and design a personalised treatment plan that may include:

• Pelvic floor coordination and strengthening

• Breathing and posture retraining

• Core and hip stability exercises

• Manual therapy, scar massage, and soft tissue release

• Advice on bladder, bowel, and sexual health

• Gradual return-to-exercise or running programmes

Every session is tailored to your comfort and progress, with a focus on empowering you with knowledge and control over your recovery.

You don’t have to live with pelvic pain, weakness, or worry. With the right physiotherapy and support, you can feel confident, strong, and in control again.
