How We Treat
At Sydney Women’s Physiotherapy/Pelvic Connections, we do not just treat a body part or a pain symptom. Our assessment, treatment and management covers every aspect of YOU, both inside and outside. This includes a whole body, mind and person approach. We are the experts in fitting all jigsaw pieces together so that you can reach your health and movement goals.
This flow diagram describes the process of how our team will progress your therapy and how we will hold space to help you learn, understand and process your health concerns. We aim to be the physiotherapist that you can rely on to advocate for your treatment choices and be a part of your multidisciplinary healthcare team. Our team of skilled physiotherapists will assist you to get back into the wider community, supporting you through your movement and health goals!
