Comprehensive Male and Female Pelvic Health Services in Woodley
Pelvic health concerns can feel deeply personal and, for many, quite difficult to talk about. Whether it’s bladder leakage, pelvic pain, erectile dysfunction, postnatal weakness, or just a persistent sense of discomfort, these symptoms are far more common than you might think—and importantly, they are very treatable.
At 3 Way Physio, we provide a discreet, specialist-led service for both male and female pelvic health. We look after patients from across Woodley, Reading, Wokingham, Bracknell, and Henley-on-Thames in a private and professional environment. Our approach combines an advanced physiotherapy assessment with a targeted rehabilitation plan, and where we feel it would be beneficial, we can also incorporate shockwave therapy.
Our goal is to help you feel comfortable again and give you the tools to manage your health with confidence. You don’t have to just ‘live with it’; we’re here to provide the expert support you need to get things back on track.
We offer separate, specialist-led pathways:
Male Pelvic Health – Yves De Vos
Female Pelvic Health – Rupali Pawar
Appointments are confidential, structured, and clinically focused.

Expected Outcomes and Limitations
Pelvic health physiotherapy can improve continence, reduce pelvic pain, improve sexual function in selected cases, and strengthen postnatal recovery. Some conditions require ongoing management rather than a complete cure. Surgical referral may be appropriate in advanced prolapse or severe cases. We provide honest guidance on expected timelines and outcomes.
