05 Dec 2012 BY Katrina Tarrant POSTED IN Pregnancy, Women's Health Pelvic Floor Problems in Women Further Reading for 'discovering' Your Pelvic Floor On the topic of all things women (sorry boys), I've found you a great website and book worth checking out from Queensland women's health physiotherapist, Mary O'Dwyer. Her experience managing all things women and pelvic floor make for a fun, yet sensitive approach to managing and treating pelvic floor problems such as stress or urge incontinence and pelvic girdle pain. I found the book easy to read. Following her 'exercises' and 'explorations' were, I'd admit, a little confronting, yet very useful and insightful.

05 Dec 2012 BY Katrina Tarrant POSTED IN Exercise Pelvic Floor problems in Men For the boys....Do I even have a pelvic floor? I was recently referred to this magazine article in an American digital mag. Pelvic floor dysfunction is often thought of as a 'woman's thing', but as this article explains, men can suffer from the range pelvic floor troubles too, from incontinence to pain in the testes and deep pelvis to poor sexual function. Again and as with the women, these are not normal and warrant further investigation. There are even a handful of male physiotherapists specialising in men's pelvic floor dysfunction in Sydney who are out there to help. Check out Stuart Baptist in the CBD. http://www.voxxi.com/pelvic-floor-dysfunction/
