At Menovivre, our physiotherapists specialize in midlife women’s health, supporting joint strength, mobility, and pelvic floor function. This service is designed to complement HRT treatment and prevent osteoporosis.
At Menovivre, we understand that midlife isn’t about slowing down—it’s about learning how to support your body in new, smarter ways. Our Strength & Sports Physiotherapy services are designed specifically for women in perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause who want to stay active, prevent injury, and feel good in their bodies again.
Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in supporting women through menopause by addressing a wide range of physical symptoms and improving overall well-being. The hormonal changes, particularly the decrease in estrogen, during menopause can lead to various issues that physiotherapy can effectively manage.
Here are some of the formulas we build—always tailored, never standardized.
Assessment of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Many women experience pelvic floor weakening due to hormonal changes, leading to:
Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (Kegel Exercises): Teaching correct technique for strengthening and coordinating pelvic floor muscles. This often involves:
Bladder Training: Strategies to improve bladder control, reduce urgency, and extend the time between bathroom visits.
Manual Therapy: To release tension in pelvic floor muscles if they are overactive or tight, contributing to pain.
Personalized Exercise Programs: Designing safe and effective exercise regimens to maintain or improve bone density. This typically includes:
Balance and Proprioception Training: Exercises to improve balance and coordination, reducing the risk of falls, which are a major cause of fractures in women with osteoporosis.
Manual Therapy: Techniques like massage, mobilization, and manipulation to reduce stiffness, improve joint mobility, and alleviate pain in areas like knees, hips, shoulders, and hands.
Therapeutic Exercises:
Pain Management Strategies: Education on heat/cold therapy, activity modification, and ergonomic advice to manage daily pain.
Midlife women often describe a shift in how their body feels—things ache longer, movements feel tighter, and confidence drops without explanation. Some of the most common concerns we work with include:
“I feel like I’ve lost
strength overnight”
“My hips and knees
ache after exercise,
even gentle walking”
“I’m scared to lift
weights now. I don’t
want to get hurt”
“I’ve been told I have osteopenia and don’t
know what to do”
“I want to feel strong
again, but everything
feels too intense.”
“I leak a little when I laugh or exercise and didn’t think I could do anything about it.”
These are not just physical issues—they impact how women show up in life. Our job is to help you reconnect to your strength, safely and confidently.

We don’t believe in “no pain, no gain.” We believe in strength with grace.
Unlike traditional gynaecology clinics, Menovivre is a full-spectrum menopause clinic built to support your body and your lifestyle. Our OB-GYNs work alongside our in-house nutritionist to help you understand the best diet for menopause, and collaborate with our movement specialists to recommend the best workouts for menopause, especially if you’re experiencing stiffness, fatigue, or muscle loss.
This is not your typical physio room with fluorescent lights and intimidating machines. At Menovivre, we’ve created a space where movement is gentle, intelligent, and tailored. No one-size-fits-all plans. No bootcamps. Just informed, expert care designed for women going through real changes.
Whether you’re restarting exercise after a long break, managing new stiffness or joint pain, or simply want to feel stronger again, our physiotherapist is here to help you move with confidence.
