Over half of all women will experience symptoms of incontinence or pelvic pain in their lifetime
On average, it will take them 7 years before they seek treatment for these symptoms. Fortunately, pelvic floor physiotherapy can be highly effective and is a clinically proven way to successfully treat these problems.
