Physio Alive
Pelvic Health Physiotherapy
At Physio Alive, we understand that pelvic health issues—such as incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and painful intercourse (dyspareunia)—can significantly impact your quality of life. These conditions are often deeply personal and not always well understood by general health professionals. That’s why we’ve built a team of industry-leading pelvic health physiotherapists who are not only compassionate but also exceptionally qualified.
Our pelvic health physiotherapists hold postgraduate qualifications, placing them among the most highly trained professionals in the field. In addition to their clinical expertise, many of our team members also serve as university educators, helping to educate and mentor the next generation of physiotherapists. This academic involvement ensures our team remains at the forefront of current research and best practice.
We are proud to be recognised as leaders in pelvic health physiotherapy, with a reputation for excellence in both treatment and education.
At Physio Alive, we are committed to empowering our clients with knowledge, support, and expert care. Our pelvic health team is trained to ensure you receive the specialised help you need—when you need it most.

Each of our pelvic health physiotherapist have their own areas of expertise, so when booking appointments our receptionists may ask several questions in order to book you in with the right physiotherapist for you.
Appointment Fees
Pelvic Health Physiotherapy is a specialist area of physiotherapy, requiring specialised training and significantly longer appointment times to ensure our commitment to thorough assessment and management is upheld. Accordingly, these longer appointment times incur higher than standard appointment fees. Please feel free to call our friendly reception staff if you have any questions.
A portion of these fees can be claimed under private health insurance extras cover. Alternatively, you may qualify for funding under Medicare’s Chronic Disease Management Program (formerly known as an Enhanced Primary Care plan or EPC plan), which contributes to the cost of five allied health sessions per year. For more information, please contact our clinic or your GP. There may be occasions when appointments require single-use equipment that may incur additional charges.
