At Townline Physiotherapy in Abbotsford, we help you feel better and move more freely. Our team offers two powerful treatments—Pelvic Health Therapy and IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation) Physiotherapy—to relieve pain, improve movement, and support your overall health. Whether you’re dealing with pelvic issues, chronic pain, or muscle tightness, we create personalized treatment plans to help you get back to doing what you love.
What Is Pelvic Health Therapy?
Pelvic Health Therapy focuses on treating problems with the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles support your bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs. When they become too tight or too weak, you might notice issues like:
-
Leaking urine
-
Pelvic pain
-
Discomfort during or after pregnancy
Our physiotherapists assess your condition and design gentle exercises to help these muscles work better—either by strengthening or relaxing them, depending on your needs.
Who Can Benefit?
Pelvic Health Therapy helps many people, including:
-
Pregnant or postpartum women dealing with pelvic pain or bladder leaks
-
Men recovering from prostate surgery or managing pelvic pain
-
Anyone experiencing frequent urination, bowel issues, or pain during intimacy
We provide a safe, private space where you can feel comfortable and supported.
How We Help
We start with a full assessment and talk through your health history and symptoms. If needed—and with your consent—we may perform an internal exam to better understand how your pelvic muscles are working. Then, we guide you through personalized exercises, gentle stretches, and hands-on treatment. Our goal is to help you feel confident, strong, and pain-free.
Benefits of Pelvic Health Therapy
-
Improves bladder and bowel control
-
Eases lower back, hip, and pelvic pain
-
Supports healthy pregnancy and recovery
-
Helps you move comfortably and confidently
What Is IMS Physiotherapy?
IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation) is a technique that uses very thin needles to release tight muscles and reduce long-lasting pain. It’s not the same as acupuncture—IMS focuses on muscles and nerves, not energy points.
We use IMS to treat:
-
Neck and back pain
-
Shoulder tension
-
Sports injuries like tennis elbow or runner’s knee
-
General muscle tightness and nerve pain
How IMS Works
When muscles stay tight for too long, they can irritate your nerves and cause chronic pain. IMS targets these tight spots with a tiny needle. This creates a quick muscle twitch, which relaxes the muscle, boosts blood flow, and helps the area heal.
Who Can Benefit?
IMS is great for:
-
Athletes recovering from injuries
-
Office workers with neck or back tension
-
Anyone with unexplained or long-term pain
If your muscles are the root of your pain, IMS can help you feel relief—often after just a few sessions.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your therapist will check your movement and posture to find the trouble areas. During treatment, you might feel a quick pinch or twitch, but most people feel better quickly after. We often combine IMS with exercises to keep the results lasting longer. Each session usually lasts 30 to 60 minutes.
Benefits of IMS Physiotherapy
-
Quick pain relief
-
Better flexibility and movement
-
Targets the root cause of pain
-
No medication needed—just natural healing
