Amy Tinetti – Titled Women’s Health Physiotherapist

Qualifications:

APA Titled Women’s Health Physiotherapist, MACP, 2018
Postgraduate Master’s in Continence and Women’s Health Physiotherapy, Curtin University, 2018
Bachelor of Science (Physiotherapy), Curtin University, 2017

I just love physiotherapy and enjoy helping people reach their full potential. I find the human body and the way it works amazing.

I chose to specialise in Women’s, Men’s and Children’s Pelvic Health after hearing an increasing number of stories from friends and family members, where so many women were struggling with continence or prolapse issues post-childbirth or during menopause. This made me realise how important this area was within physiotherapy and spurred me on to learn more.

I’ve been a physiotherapist for over 15 years and have clinical experience in Continence and Women’s Health and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. I have completed two degrees, a Postgraduate Masters Degree in Continence and Women’s Health Physiotherapy and a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, both at Curtin University.

I like to address all the areas which may be impacting your Continence and Pelvic Health. These areas include your pelvic floor, abdominals, exercise, stressors, diet, bowels and many others.

When I’m not working at Wisdom Physiotherapy I am either lecturing at Curtin or my husband and I are actively trying to find ways to tire out our two little boys.

My areas of special clinical interest include:

Continence issues (Stress Urinary Incontinence, overactive bladder, urge urinary incontinence)
Postnatal care – rectus abdominus diastasis, haemorrhoids, perineal trauma
Pelvic pain (dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, painful bladder syndrome)
Pessary fittings
Prolapse
Endometriosis
Pain with sex and tampon insertion
Constipation
Painful periods
Faecal incontinence
Male pre and post-prostatectomy
Children daytime bladder leakage
Nocturnal enuresis (or bed wetting)
