Emily is a specialist pelvic health physiotherapist treating women with pregnancy and postnatal issues, prolapse, bladder and bowel problems and perineal scar pain. Emily Krelle (MCSP, BSc Hons) is a Chartered Physiotherapist and is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council. She has been working in the specialist field of pelvic health physiotherapy since 2008 in both NHS and private hospitals in Bristol and Bath. Pelvic health problems include bladder and bowel issues (such as incontinence, urgency and difficult emptying), prolapse, and perineal scar pain. Although relatively common (1 in 3 women experience urinary incontinence in their lifetime, around 50% experience prolapse and 90% of women who have vaginal childbirth will tear to some degree) pelvic health issues often go unspoken whilst having a big impact on a woman's life. Traditionally pelvic floor exercises are promoted as treatment for these problems but for some women this can make symptoms worse. There is increasing awareness of the role of tension within the pelvic floor relating to these conditions. Emily assesses each woman holistically and checks for pelvic floor tension which is then treated using a range of techniques. Emily has two energetic young children and is a keen gardener and baker.
