Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist

Melissa Dessaulles

I consider myself a physio for embarrassing things; whether you experience leaking, the sensation that organs are falling out, intimacy issues, pelvic pain or a loss of connection with your core, I am here to help you understand your body, realize you aren’t alone and help you come up with a plan to address and conquer your symptoms. I value a whole body approach, finding treatment suggestions and strategies that fit into your life and putting you in the drivers seat of your health.
