Start Your Recovery text: Men’s health physiotherapy at LPAW is clinical, straightforward, and discreet. We treat pelvic floor dysfunction, post-prostatectomy rehabilitation, and chronic pelvic pain at our Bow and Stratford East Village clinics.
Post-Prostatectomy Rehabilitation Urinary incontinence following prostate surgery. Pelvic floor physiotherapy accelerates continence recovery — both pre and post-operatively.
Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) Persistent pain in the perineum, lower abdomen, testes, or penis. Often caused by hypertonic (too tight) pelvic floor rather than infection. Responds well to pelvic floor down-training.
Male Urinary Incontinence Urge incontinence, stress incontinence, and post-micturition dribble — all treatable with physiotherapy.
Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Affecting Sexual Function Hypertonic pelvic floor can contribute to erectile dysfunction and painful ejaculation. Physiotherapy addressing muscle tension can make a meaningful difference.
Men’s Health & MSK Overlap Pelvic floor weakness contributing to lower back pain, hip instability, groin pain, and adductor strains.
Most men achieve significant continence improvement within 3–6 months of starting post-prostatectomy physiotherapy. Many achieve full continence recovery.
Your initial appointment (45–60 minutes) begins with a conversation, your symptoms, history, surgical or medical background, and your goals. There is no need to minimise or be embarrassed about what you’re experiencing. Your physiotherapist has heard it before, and their only interest is in understanding your situation clearly so they can help.
internal rectal assessment (for pelvic floor tone and trigger points), this is the most informative assessment for many conditions and will be fully explained in advance. It is not compulsory.
You will leave your first appointment with a clear explanation of what has been found and a specific treatment plan.
[Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (PTNS)] is available at LPAW for men as well as women with overactive bladder or urgency urinary incontinence. PTNS is a NICE-approved, office-based treatment that involves stimulating the tibial nerve at the ankle, which modulates bladder overactivity. It is effective, minimally invasive, and does not involve any pelvic contact. A typical course is 12 weekly sessions of 30 minutes.

LPAW’s clinical team includes 19 practitioners, many holding postgraduate qualifications from UCL, King’s College London, and Guy’s and St Thomas’. Lead clinician Mr Arjun Viswanath MSc, MCSP, MPPA – Co-Founder and Consultant Physiotherapist – brings 25+ years of NHS and private experience including BMI London Independent Hospital and Harley Street.
Every clinician joining LPAW completes a mandatory intensive shadowing placement with our Consultant Physiotherapist before seeing patients independently. This is not a standard practice at most clinics – it’s our way of maintaining clinical consistency across the team.
Men’s health physiotherapy at LPAW connects directly with our PTNS service for overactive bladder, and with our wider physiotherapy and MSK services for pelvic floor and back pain overlap.
If your symptoms suggest a cause beyond physiotherapy such as prostate pathology, urological investigation, or hormonal factors we will say so clearly and help facilitate the appropriate referral to the right specialist.
