pediatric pelvic health

It’s specialized care focused on helping kids with bladder, bowel, and pelvic health challenges. From bedwetting and constipation to pelvic pain, this type of physiotherapy helps little bodies feel better and gain confidence while keeping things gentle and kid-friendly.

If your child struggles with things like bedwetting, frequent bathroom accidents, constipation, or even pelvic pain, this could be a game-changer! Pediatric pelvic physio is all about addressing these challenges early so your child can focus on being a happy, carefree kid.

We promise it’s nothing scary! Your child will meet with our super-friendly physiotherapist who will get to know them and understand their concerns. We’ll start with an assessment (fully clothed!) and then create a plan that might include exercises, relaxation techniques, and strategies for better bladder and bowel health.

No, there will not be an internal exam as part of pediatric pelvic health physiotherapy. Our approach is entirely non-invasive and focuses on making your child feel safe and comfortable. We use external techniques, such as gentle observation of movement, muscle activation, and posture, along with tailored exercises and relaxation strategies.Our goal is to create a supportive environment where your child can feel at ease while we work together to address their pelvic health needs.

Not at all! We know these topics can feel a little personal, so we make sure the sessions are relaxed, fun, and totally judgement-free. Our goal is to make your child feel supported and empowered every step of the way.

Every child is unique, so the timeline for improvement can vary. Many parents notice positive changes after just a few sessions, but the key to long-term success is consistency with the strategies we teach. While we understand the desire for quick results, pelvic health recovery is often a gradual process that requires patience and commitment. A wellbe, we take a holistic approach by collaborating with other practitioners, including your child’s MD, as needed, to ensure the most comprehensive care. This teamwork helps create a well-rounded recovery plan tailored to your child’s specific needs, giving them the best chance for meaningful progress.

Great question! Here’s a quick list of some common ones:

• Bedwetting (enuresis)

• Constipation or painful bowel movements

• Bladder and bowel incontinence

• Pelvic pain or discomfort

• Bathroom anxiety or withholding

• Post-surgical pelvic recovery

Most extended health benefits cover physiotherapy services, including pediatric care. It’s always a good idea to check with your provider to confirm!

Yes, but don’t worry—we keep it simple and manageable. You’ll get easy-to-follow tips and exercises that fit into your daily routine, so you can support your child’s progress between sessions. Think of it as teamwork for better health!

That’s totally normal! Let them know it’s going to be fun and relaxed (there may even be some fun games!) and we’ll take things at their pace. You’re welcome to stay with them during the session for extra reassurance. Plus, our friendly team is great at helping kids feel comfortable right away!
