Restore your comfort and quality of life
Perineal rehabilitation isn’t exclusive to women. Many men also experience pelvic dysfunction, often due to surgeries, injuries, or chronic pain. At Kinatex Sports Physio, our pelvic health physiotherapists provide specialized support to help men manage urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and erectile dysfunction.
During the first consultation, an in-depth assessment helps identify the causes of your symptoms, allowing us to create a tailored rehabilitation program. Using targeted techniques and exercises, we support you in strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, improving urinary function, and reducing pain.
Our perineal rehabilitation program for men includes:
- Prevention and treatment of urinary incontinence (post-prostatectomy, etc.).
- Management of pelvic, prostate, and anal pain.
- Support for erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction.
- Post-surgical rehabilitation (following urological or anorectal surgery) or after radiotherapy.
- Enhancement of sexual comfort and satisfaction.
Our personalized approach is backed by close collaboration with other experts for comprehensive care. Contact Kinatex to learn more and schedule your first session.
