Each assessment is individual and will vary from person to person. Most assessments will involve, as mentioned, a lengthy conversation to gather information including gynecological, bladder, bowel and menstrual history. We also may look at your movement including looking at how your back, hips and posture may contribute to  your symptoms. We also can perform a pelvic floor exam if we deem appropriate and you are comfortable to do so. 

A pelvic floor examination is only performed if you are consenting and comfortable to do so and when you are ready, this does not have to be done on the first visit. Your Women’s Health Coach can explain what this involves which can allow you to decide if you would like to proceed. This can be very valuable as it can give us information about how your pelvic floor is functioning and guide what exercises we prescribe.
