Men’s Health

In the Men’s Health Physiotherapy Clinic at Barefoot we see a lot of men who have had surgery for prostate cancer and have developed some of the common post op problems such as urinary incontinence. We also treat men post surgery for pelvic pain and some who have developed erectile dysfunction.
