⚠️ Be Careful of Online Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Advice ⚠️

Blogs can be helpful, but they’re not a replacement for an assessment and treatment from a physiotherapist. Here’s why ⬇️

🔹 One-Size-Fits-All: What works for some, won’t always work for you.
🔹 No Professional Input: Online advice can’t replace an in-person assessment.
🔹 Outdated Info: Research changes – blogs aren’t always updated.
🔹 Over-Generalisation: Pelvic floor conditions are complex and unique to each person.

✨ Tips for safer scrolling:
✔️ Check the source – is it from a qualified professional?
✔️ Verify information with your physio or doctor before trying it.
✔️ Be sceptical of “quick fixes.”
✔️ Remember: your body and your health are unique to you.
✔️ Use blogs for general knowledge only.
✔️ If advice resonates, book an in-person assessment with us for care tailored to you.

📞 Call us today or book online – your health deserves professional, personalised support. 💙

Online blogs can provide helpful insights, but they’re not a substitute for personalised physiotherapy. Learn the pitfalls of online advice and when to seek professional pelvic floor care.
