CWA hears from physio

Senior physiotherapist Zoe Mills had her audience at the Tewantin Noosa CWA branch spellbound as she explained why 50 per cent of women will experience prolapse.

“Women need to start talking more openly about pelvic floor problems that are so common. There is help available that does not involve surgery that can be life changing,“ Zoe said.

Prolapse and incontinence and the causes and treatments were explained to the audience by Zoe, from Alchemy in Motion at Noosa Junction.

Zoe received a very warm thank you from members and the branch president, Leigh McCready.

“We were thrilled to have our first physiotherapist speaker in the branch’s history and plan on inviting another of Zoe’s colleagues to address our branch in future on aspects of physiotherapy treatments for other health issues,“ Leigh said.

“Women’s health is of primary concern to QCWA members and we all benefitted from the sharing of Zoe’s knowledge and thank her for such a clear and easy understanding of the pelvic problems so prevalent in the community and the ways in which our quality of life of women can be improved.“
