Men’s Health Physiotherapy Harley Street

From problems affecting your sex life or your prostate gland to mental health and general fitness, there are many health problems that men can face. However, men can be reluctant to seek help for health issues – or even acknowledge when there may be a problem. Because of this the study and treatment of mens health is roughly 30 years behind that of womens health, despite many men also experiencing intimate health conditions for example:

• 1 in 10 men may experience incontinence or pelvic floor issues during their lifetime
• Following prostate surgery, up to 70% of men suffer from urinary incontinence
• 16% of males over 18 have overactive bladder
• Men training at a high level, for example runners and athletes, can be affected by pelvic floor dysfunction, often suffering from a tight pelvic floor
• About 2 in 10 men will have chronic prostatitis/pelvic pain at some point during their lives.

Men’s Health Physiotherapy covers a range of conditions including incontinence, overactive bladder, bowel dysfunction, pelvic pain and erectile or other sexual dysfunction. Andre De Oliveira works closely with Urologist and men’s sexual health expert, Dr. Fabio Castiglione. We are able to refer patients directly to Dr Castiglione for further screening if necessary.
At ALO clinic, we have both the extensive knowledge in the field and the technology to treat many of the above-mentioned common conditions as well as lesser known mens health conditions. We’re looking to erase the ‘taboo’ surrounding mens health and we encourage all men to be proactive towards their health and know that help is readily available in our clinic.
