#147 How Pelvic Health Physio Supports Conditions Including Endo, Incontinence & Pain with Natalia Vàsquez
Natalia Vásquez is a passionate and committed physiotherapist with experience and great interest in pelvic health and neurological pelvic dysfunction. After graduating with a First Class degree in Physiotherapy, Natalia gained a Master’s in Clinical Neuroscience at University College London and immediately started her clinical research into neurogenic bladder and pelvic dysfunction. Following her research Natalia has continued to take part in the academia and has presented her work in numerous national and international meetings.
Her research, training and academic experience led her to successfully implement and consolidate a Specialist Pelvic Physiotherapy Clinic at the London Spinal Cord Injury Centre, Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital where she treats a wide range of complex pelvic dysfunction cases. Natalia’s multi-disciplinary experience in pelvic dysfunction due to neurological injury and disease motivated her to extend her practice to the general population in the private sector. Whether in the NHS or in the private sector, Natalia has a holistic and compassionate approach which go along with her recent love and training in Functional Medicine
She focuses in re-education and manipulation of the abdominal and lumbo-pelvic musculature for men and women suffering from a wide range of conditions including bladder and chronic pelvic pain, idiopathic and neurogenic bladder dysfunction, urinary and/or faecal incontinence and ano-rectal and sexual dysfunction.
Outside of work, Natalia loves to practice Yoga and meditation which she also uses and practices with her patients. She also enjoys cooking for family and friends. Most of all, Natalia cherishes spending quality time with her daughter.
