Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP)

Physiotherapy for Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP)

Pelvic girdle pain refers to musculoskeletal disorders of the pelvis, often resulting in discomfort in the low back and buttocks or the front of the pelvis. PGP can be triggered by factors such as pregnancy, trauma, arthritis, muscle weakness, or abnormal joint movement.

How Physiotherapy Can Help
Physiotherapy can effectively manage PGP. At your first assessment, your physiotherapist will perform a physical exam to help pinpoint the underlying causes of your symptoms. From there, you will work together to develop a treatment plan that may include exercises to strengthen related muscles, education on self-management strategies, and direction for next steps.
