Men’s Health (Radical Prostatectomy)
Prostate cancer and surgery is often a big shock as men find out they have cancer and require extensive surgery. With this Surgery often comes urinary incontinence.
Due to the removal of the prostate, which is the main control mechanism for urine control, this mechanism becomes impaired and your pelvic floor needs to take on a greater role to compensate.
Our Physiotherapist Joseph treats and assesses these presentations with empathy and respect, and also provides realistic expectations. It is strongly recommended to see a physiotherapist before your procedure to ensure you know how to turn on your pelvic floor muscles correctly.
