A well-functioning pelvic floor is crucial for quality of life, body control and well-being. For complaints such as incontinence, prolapse problems or pain, we at PhysioART Basel offer discreet and targeted pelvic floor therapy that is tailored to your individual needs.
The pelvic floor is a central muscle network that supports the bladder, bowel and uterus. It plays an essential role in the closure of the bladder and bowel, in posture and in stable interaction with the abdominal and back muscles. After pregnancy, childbirth, operations or hormonal changes, it can become weakened or overloaded, causing discomfort in everyday life.
An impaired pelvic floor can lead to various complaints that severely restrict quality of life:
These symptoms are common but treatable and usually improve significantly with targeted therapy.
The aim of pelvic floor therapy at PhysioART is to sustainably improve the function and control of the pelvic floor muscles - through strengthening or relaxation, depending on the symptoms.
We use the following methods for this:
Therapy is always individualised and carried out by specialised physiotherapists - professionally, sensitively and discreetly.
A strong pelvic floor is the basis for female health - at any age. Whether after giving birth, during the menopause or simply in everyday life: the pelvic floor supports the bladder, bowel and uterus, ensures an upright posture and plays a key role in continence and intimate well-being. If it is weakened by pregnancy, hormonal changes or age-related tissue changes, this can lead to symptoms such as incontinence, prolapse or pain.
Targeted training - supported by biofeedback
Our pelvic floor therapy combines tried-and-tested exercises with innovative techniques such as biofeedback or electrostimulation. Biofeedback in particular helps women who find it difficult to perceive their pelvic floor to recognise the correct muscle activity and train it effectively. This makes the training not only perceptible but also measurable and supports a lasting improvement in your symptoms.
Pelvic floor therapy is a specialised form of physiotherapy that focuses on strengthening, relaxing and coordinating the pelvic floor muscles. It is individually tailored to the patient's symptoms - e.g. incontinence, prolapse problems or pain in the pelvic area.
The therapy is suitable for women of all ages, especially after pregnancy and childbirth, bladder weakness, prolapse problems, overactive bladder, pain in the genital area or after gynaecological operations.
After a detailed discussion and a targeted examination, the therapy is carried out in individual treatment. Depending on the symptoms, active exercises, manual techniques or supportive procedures such as biofeedback are used. Discretion and trust take centre stage.
No, the therapy is always carried out respectfully and in a protected environment. Exercises and techniques are customised. Our therapists take a particularly cautious approach when dealing with uncertainties or sensitive issues.
This depends on the symptoms. We often recommend 1-2 sessions per week over several weeks. The aim is to achieve a noticeable improvement as early as possible and to promote personal responsibility in everyday life in the long term.
Yes, with a doctor's prescription, pelvic floor therapy is covered by basic insurance. Without a prescription, the costs can be reimbursed under certain conditions via supplementary insurance.
