Be Confident, Be Woman With Novella Health

Are you struggling with the changes in your body after giving birth? Are you worried about participating in activities in case your bladder leaks? Are you constipated or have trouble in the bathroom? Have you been diagnosed with prolapse or feel a bulge and don’t know what to do?

If so, all these concerns can be managed with the help of Pelvic Health Physiotherapy. This unique area of physiotherapy encompasses more than just the pelvic floor as it looks at the whole person; your symptoms, general health, emotional health and wellbeing.  A therapist in this field can also help with issues of frequency, urgency, and pelvic pain conditions such as endometriosis and with symptoms of painful intercourse or pelvic/back pain that seems to have no origin.

We are fortunate in the Whitsundays to have Camille from Novella Health practicing locally in Proserpine, Cannonvale, and Bowen. Camille has 25 years’ experience in a diverse range of healthcare settings and several tertiary qualifications as well.

Years prior to starting Novella Health, Camille experienced birth injuries that took a mental and physical toll. Working through these injuries, Camille realised she had a calling to help women, of all ages, in her community of the Whitsundays with their private pelvic concerns and began taking advanced courses in the field of Women’s Pelvic Health Physiotherapy.

Now, with a concentration in Women’s Pelvic Health and Children’s Bladder and Bowel Incontinence she is proud to help people feel comfortable in their body.

“I have long appointment times to give the patient time and space to tell their story and be heard,” explained Camille.

“I see the patient as the expert of their body. My job is to explain the condition and set up a practical treatment plan to reach their goals.

If you would like to discuss your concerns, confidentially, please book online or call to book.
