Nova Physiotherapy offers real-time ultrasound imaging to patients interested in adding this option to their pelvic health physiotherapy care. This treatment option is beneficial in assessing pelvic floor muscle (pfm) activation and visualizing lifting of the bladder during pfm muscle contraction. It is also helpful to measure muscle mass, diastasis rectii (separation of the rectus abdominis muscles often associated with pregnancy) and overall vascularization of muscle. If you are interested, speak with your physiotherapist at Nova.
