I've been researching pelvic floor physiotherapists in Vancouver. I've come up with four different clinics that do it, usually just one physio at each clinic (but 3, at one clinic) and a couple that do home visits.
I haven't yet contacted all of them, but where I've found out prices, I include that below.
I'd like to narrow down the list by recommendations: has anyone tried any of these pelvic floor physiotherapists for interstitial cystitis? How informed did you find each to be about IC, and how much did the treatments help your IC?
Thanks
Lisa
