Children's Pelvic Health
Gentle, child-friendly physiotherapy for bladder and bowel concerns — in a calm, supportive space.
Can we help?
These concerns are very common in childhood — and respond well to gentle, supportive care.
Our approach
We take time to understand your child and your family — then build a gentle, practical plan together.
Paediatric continence physiotherapy focuses on how the bladder, bowel and pelvic floor muscles work together as your child grows. Our paediatric care is available to families in Albany and across the Great Southern.
We look at the whole picture, not just the symptom.
You know your child best — care is built around your family.
Playful, comfortable and never invasive.
Helping your child thrive at home and school.
There is no need to wait — early support makes a real difference.

The Flourish difference
The evidence
Evidence supports physiotherapy and bladder and bowel retraining for a range of childhood continence concerns. Treatment is individualised according to your child's symptoms, age, development and goals.
Areas commonly addressed include:
Good to know
No referral is needed — you are welcome to self-refer at any time. We also accept GP Chronic Condition Management Plans (GPCCMP) and NDIS referrals.
No, never. Assessment for children is always external, gentle and non-invasive.
Yes. We use a calm, playful, age-appropriate approach so your child feels at ease.
Always. A parent or carer stays with your child throughout the appointment.
Initial appointments are longer, so there is time to listen, assess and start a plan without rushing.
A bladder and bowel diary if you have one, plus any relevant medical information. If not, we will help you start one.
No. Treatment is gentle and comfortable, and we always work at your child's pace.
Yes — if your private health extras cover physiotherapy, appointments are paid in full on the day. You can then submit your receipt to your private health fund to claim any rebate.
