PROLAPSE & PESSARIES

Pessaries are used in the treatment of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.

At Tralee Physiotherapy Clinic we fit three different flexible, silicone pessaries ring, cube and ring with knob.

Not every person is suitable for a pessary depending on the type or level of prolapse.  Usually you will have already been assessed by your doctor or gynaecologist.  If you haven’t been assessed by your doctor I will liaise with your doctor to ensure you are medically safe to use a pessary.

Before fitting a pessary I do a full assessment of your back, hip and pelvic floor movement and strength.
