Rehabilitation after pelvic surgery is a different experience for every individual.

Some people notice improvement quickly, while for others progress is more gradual. Recovery is shaped by many factors — including the type of surgery, general health, stress levels, and individual healing patterns — not effort alone.

With the right support, recovery can feel challenging but still manageable and safe. Supportive care helps you understand what your body needs at each stage, without pressure or comparison.

If this reassurance was helpful, save it or share it with someone who might need it.

Hi, I’m Alaina 👋🏼

I’m an Exercise Physiologist, a mum, and a big believer in the power of movement.

I don’t see exercise as punishment or something you have to be perfect at — I see it as a tool to help you feel stronger, more confident, and more capable in your everyday life.

I work with people living with pain, injuries, and chronic conditions, as well as those who just want to move and feel better. A big part of my role is helping bridge the gap between rehab and real life, using evidence-based exercise in a way that actually feels achievable and sustainable.

My approach is simple:
✨ Person-first care
✨ Individualised programs
✨ Progress that meets you where you’re at

Our clinic team works together to provide thoughtful, evidence-based pelvic health care — supporting patients through recovery, education, and long-term wellbeing.

February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month — a time to acknowledge the impact of ovarian cancer and the importance of ongoing care and support.
Ovarian cancer symptoms can be subtle and non-specific, which is why awareness, education, and listening to your body matter.

For those undergoing treatment, or living beyond it, pelvic health care can play a supportive role — helping with bladder, bowel, pelvic pain, sexual function, and overall comfort as the body navigates significant change.

Care doesn’t end with treatment. Support, understanding, and gentle guidance remain important parts of recovery and wellbeing.
Today, we acknowledge those affected, those supporting loved ones, and the importance of continued awareness.

Pelvic surgery can influence more than one system.

The pelvic floor muscles play a key role in bowel control, coordination, and comfort. Changes following pelvic surgery can affect how these two systems work together.

This is why bowel symptoms after pelvic surgery aren’t uncommon, and why a holistic approach to recovery matters.

Pelvic health care looks at muscle function, coordination, breathing, and nervous system responses to support recovery in a meaningful way.

Save this if bowel changes after surgery have felt unexpected or confusing.

Recovery after pelvic surgery can feel uncertain — especially when you’re not sure what’s normal.

It’s common to experience changes in bladder or bowel habits, pelvic discomfort, altered sensation, or fatigue in the weeks and months following prostate, bowel, reconstructive or gynae surgery.

What’s important is understanding which changes are part of healing, and which may benefit from additional support.

Pelvic health care can help guide recovery, support function, and build confidence as the body heals

Save this if you or someone close to you is preparing for or recovering from pelvic surgery.

Bladder symptoms are far more common than many people realise — yet they’re often experienced quietly.

Urgency, leaking, or frequent trips to the bathroom don’t mean you’ve failed your body. They’re signals that something may need support or understanding.

You don’t have to live with symptoms in silence. Education and pelvic health care can help clarify what’s happening and guide next steps.

If this helped, save it or share it with someone who might need reassurance.

Pelvic floor support in pregnancy isn’t just about strengthening exercises.

It includes education, breathing patterns, posture, load management, and understanding how the pelvic floor responds to daily movement and change.

For some people, support means learning to relax and coordinate the pelvic floor — not just engage it.
This is why individual assessment and education matter. The goal is to support function, comfort, and confidence throughout pregnancy and beyond.

Save this if you’ve ever been told pregnancy pelvic care is “just exercises”.

As we move into a new year, it’s worth asking yourself:
have you been putting off a niggling issue, or struggling to find time for important self-care?

Pelvic discomfort, bladder changes, bowel symptoms, or pelvic pain are easy to push down the priority list — but they don’t have to be managed alone.

A pelvic health physiotherapist can help you understand what’s happening, guide treatment, and recommend clinician-endorsed products that support your comfort alongside care.

Small steps now can make a meaningful difference to how you feel in your body over time.

Bladder urgency isn’t something you “fight” — it’s something you calm.

When an urge hits, rushing to the toilet often excites the bladder further and increases the risk of leaking. The goal is to pause, calm the bladder, and walk — not run — once the sensation settles.

Bladder training is about teaching your system that you are in control. Small strategies like stillness, breathing, gentle pelvic floor cues, and pressure techniques can reduce urgency within seconds and help you reach the toilet comfortably.

Progress isn’t about holding for as long as possible.
It’s about calming the urge and choosing when you go.

Save this if urgency has ever felt overwhelming — your bladder can be retrained.

✨ So subtle it blends right in ✨
Even poolside 💦Is it a tube of sunscreen, a moisturiser, or chapstick? A hair roller? Nobody would know — and that’s the beauty of it.

I completely understand they have no place by the pool, but that’s beside the point 🤪.

🌿✨ Big news from Hug Physio ✨🌿
My fundamental goal has always been to provide market alternatives that address the wide variation in pelvic pain presentations—because every human being is dynamic and complex. Just as we create individualised treatment plans, we can offer carefully designed home treatment tools, ensuring patients have options to find the right solution for their unique needs.

After 2 years of conceptualising, designing, photographing, marketing, and navigating endless communication with manufacturers, customs, and the TGA… our Peri Flow Dilator Series is now officially TGA approved as a Class 1 Medical Device! 🩺🎊 ARTG: 511029

I am so proud to deliver a seamless product, beautifully presented and offering unique features that set it apart from other devices on the market:
✔️ Bundled or separated set options
✔️ Gentle vibration for comfort as you progress
✔️ Neutral, calming colour scheme
✔️ Self-examination mirror
✔️ Breathable cotton storage bag
✔️ Downloadable e-book dilator guide for supported home therapy

All at an affordable price — because accessing health care and managing pain should never create extra stress or worry. The Peri Flow was designed to calm, support and empower — and I’m incredibly proud to bring this device to market, offering a stepping stone for all girls and women suffering from both superficial and deep pelvic pain. 🧡🧡
