Children can experience pelvic floor and bladder or bowel concerns just as adults can. These issues are often treatable, and early intervention can help children develop healthy bladder and bowel habits while improving their confidence and quality of life.

At Inspire Physio, we provide gentle, child-friendly pelvic health physiotherapy in a comfortable and supportive environment. Our assessments are tailored to your child’s age and needs, with a strong focus on education, play-based strategies, and involving parents or caregivers throughout the process. Internal examinations are NOT performed on children. Instead, treatment focuses on understanding how the bladder, bowel, pelvic floor muscles, breathing, posture, and movement work together.

We commonly help children with:

• Daytime urinary leakage
• Bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis)
• Urinary urgency and frequent urination
• Constipation
• Stool accidents (fecal incontinence)
• Difficulty emptying the bladder
• Pelvic pain

Treatment may include education, bladder and bowel retraining, breathing exercises, pelvic floor muscle awareness, posture and movement strategies, activity modification, and a personalized home program. We work closely with families to create practical strategies that fit into everyday life and empower children to succeed.

If your child is struggling with bladder or bowel concerns, know that they are not alone. These conditions are common, and with the right support, many children experience significant improvements in their symptoms and confidence.
