Your Appointment

About:

At your initial appointment your physiotherapist will take a detailed history.

Depending on the nature of your concern we will likely ask about your bladder and bowels as well as any other symptoms you may be experiencing. A vaginal assessment may be offered to give you accurate feedback about your pelvic floor.

After your initial appointment you can expect a detailed email regarding any education covered as well as your home program.

  • No. In Australia physiotherapists are first line practitioners which means a referral isn’t required.

  • Of course. The purpose of Kin Physiotherapy is to make life easier for you!

  • Your physiotherapist will provide all necessary equipment for your session. However, due to current infection control measures we would ask that you provide a towel if an internal assessment is required.

  • Yes, we have a mobile HICAPS machine which means we can process the majority of private health insurance providers on the spot. What rebate you are eligible for will depend on your level of cover.

    Please note there are some health funds that do not allow for mobile claiming. In which case we would ask you to pay in full and claim back through your insurance.

  • A postnatal check is usually suggested at the six to eight week mark as a vaginal assessment is not likely be offered prior to this time. If you do however have any aches, pains or other issues before the six week mark please do not hesitate to contact us.

    If you are beyond the six week time frame it is never too late to book in for a check!

  • We understand that surgery is sometimes needed for symptom relief. As physiotherapists we can provide you with exercises to ensure your pelvic floor is as strong as possible prior to surgery. This is the same as any other muscle group in the body.

    Working alongside your urogynaecologist/gynaecologist/colorectal surgeon we can also provide you with education and advice to make you feel more comfortable following surgery and guide return to activity.
