Gynaecological physiotherapy, also known as urogynaecological physiotherapy, is a modern therapy that focuses on the correct function of the pelvic floor muscles, paying attention to dysfunctions that occur in this area. In other words, it is a physiotherapy for women's issues that takes a holistic approach to the whole body. During therapy, emphasis is placed on the interdependencies that exist between the muscles located within the reproductive system, the internal organs, as well as other parts of the body, such as the spine.

Urogynaecological physiotherapy - indications

  • Pain in the pelvic region, lower abdomen and coccyx,
  • severe menstrual pain,

Urogynaecological physiotherapy - methods used

At MTS Holistic Therapy Rehabilitation Centre, we take an individual approach to patients, so our specialists are able to select an effective method to solve any problem. We use classical manual methods and modern urogynaecological physiotherapy, and we support treatments with natural medicine, which is characterised by a holistic approach to the whole body. What's more, we often combine different techniques during therapy to speed up the recovery period. Below are the methods we use in gynaecological physiotherapy:

Manual techniques

Manual techniques include:

Manual methods are completely safe. They involve the application of mechanical stimuli to the patient's body. In this case, the physiotherapist uses a series of movements that relax and strengthen the muscle tissue in the area of the reproductive organs. These have an extremely positive effect on the woman's body, namely: accelerating tissue regeneration, increasing tissue elasticity and eliminating pain.

The ancient abdominal massage has a holistic effect, as it relaxes the smooth muscles. Furthermore, this method reduces tension between the internal organs and the peripheral joints of the spine and normalises the functioning of the sexual organs. The therapy is very often used in cases of infertility.

Naturopathic techniques

  • Medical leeches
  • Ear acupuncture

In urogynaecological physiotherapy, naturopathic techniques are used as side methods to support manual treatments. They are based on natural healing methods and have a positive effect on the female body.
In summary, well-targeted urogynaecological physiotherapy helps to influence the causes and effects of various ailments by relaxing muscles or improving the function of internal organs.
