Higher Function Women’s Health


Higher Function Women’s Health is a private physiotherapy clinic located in Collingwood, where they provide pelvic health and orthopaedic physiotherapy care to females of all ages. Laura Powers, owner and registered physiotherapist, started the clinic back in 2011 and has continued her passion of helping women achieve their health and wellness goals.

Common conditions they treat relating to pelvic health include:

  • Stress/Urge incontinence (urinary and fecal)
  • Urgency/frequency/nocturia (frequency at night)
  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse
  • Pregnancy related or generalized pelvic pain
  • Prenatal preparation for labour and delivery
  • Constipation
  • Vaginismus/dyspareunia (vaginal pain/pain with intercourse)
  • Rectus Diastasis
  • Pain associated with Interstitial Cystitis or Endometriosis

They also treat common sport injuries such as back pain, knee injuries, hip bursitis or tendonitis, shoulder pain from rotator cuff tears/strains or tendonitis, just to name a few.

At Higher Function Women’s Health they strive to take a whole-person approach considering all aspects that influence patient’s symptoms, not just the physical. After completing a comprehensive assessment, the physiotherapist will tailor an individualized treatment plan involving manual therapy, education, strategies, and exercise. Patients can expect to receive one-on-one care, in a space they can feel comfortable sharing their health concerns.
