Proctological and anorectal physiotherapy
Treatment for problems around the anus - incontinence of gas and stool, functional constipation, anal pain, support for haemorrhoid and fissure treatment.
Proctological physiotherapy is the area people talk about least, and one that affects a great many of them. Embarrassment means patients often arrive years too late - even though the anal sphincters and pelvic floor muscles are muscles like any other and respond just as well to training and manual therapy.
I work both with women after instrumental deliveries and perineal injury, with men after pelvic surgery, and with patients in chronic anal and urogenital pain. Therapy always follows an examination and runs alongside treatment led by a proctologist - physiotherapy does not replace it, but it clearly improves the results.
What you can come with
Men's urological and proctological physiotherapy
The pelvic floor muscles matter for the health and comfort of men just as much as for women.
Read more →Incontinence of gas and stool
One of the most embarrassing complaints and one of the least often reported - although symptoms usually improve markedly with therapy alone.
Read more →Functional constipation and anal pain
Constipation with no organic cause, anal pain, haemorrhoids and fissures - therapy for pelvic floor tension and re-learning how to open the bowels.
Read more →Haemorrhoids
Physiotherapy does not remove haemorrhoids, but it removes what pushes them out every day: straining, a bad posture on the toilet and excessive pelvic floor tension.
Read more →Anal fissure and anal fistula
An anal fissure will not heal because the sphincter is in spasm and every bowel movement tears the wound open again. Physiotherapy breaks that mechanism.
Read more →Tailbone pain
Coccydynia - pain on sitting down and standing up, worse on a hard chair. One of the few conditions where physiotherapy is the first-line treatment.
Read more →Defecation disorders
A feeling of incomplete emptying, long straining, having to help with a finger. Muscles that should release are tightening instead - and physiotherapy reverses that.
Read more →Rectocele
A bulge of the rectum towards the vagina - a feeling of retained stool, emptying only after pressing on the vaginal wall. In grades I and II physiotherapy clearly improves symptoms.
Read more →Anal symptoms with gut dysbiosis
Bloating, gas, alternating constipation and loose stools irritate the anal area and entrench pelvic floor tension. Physiotherapy works on that tension - treating the gut belongs to a doctor.
