Meet Nathan →Pelvic health influences confidence, comfort, movement, intimacy, recovery, sport and everyday quality of life.
Our role isn't simply to treat a diagnosis. We identify what has changed, understand the systems involved and create the most appropriate pathway to recovery.
CoreGood is a physiotherapy practice dedicated to pelvic health. Nathan Scott, BPhty (Otago), sees men and women living with urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, chronic pelvic pain, bowel control problems, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and recovery after prostate surgery or childbirth. You can book directly. You do not need a referral from your GP.

Our approach
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we assess the systems contributing to your problem. Depending on your needs, your pathway may include pelvic health physiotherapy, real-time ultrasound, MAPLe HD EMG, PelviPower, focused shockwave therapy, hands-on therapy, exercise rehabilitation and education.
Technology supports clinical reasoning. It never replaces it.
Not usually. Whenever possible we use objective, non-invasive assessment to understand how your pelvic floor is functioning. Real-time ultrasound is performed through the lower abdomen while you stay fully clothed, and biofeedback lets us assess muscle activation, coordination and control without an internal examination in most people.
If additional assessment would change what we recommend, we will explain exactly why, answer your questions and ask for your consent before proceeding. You can decline any assessment or any part of an appointment, at any point, for any reason. You may bring a support person or ask for a chaperone.
See how we assess and what your pathway may include →Two people with the same symptom often have different reasons for it. Your assessment is built around your situation, your history and what you want to get back to, so the plan you leave with is yours rather than a standard programme.
Recommendations are guided by your assessment and the best available evidence. Where the evidence is strong we will say so. Where it is mixed, or where we are not sure how much difference something will make for you, we will say that too.
Men's and women's pelvic health, bladder and bowel, pelvic pain and sexual health, all in one practice, with objective assessment technology on site and a working relationship with your GP, urologist, gynaecologist or midwife where that helps.
No. In New Zealand you can book a physiotherapy appointment directly. You do not need to see your GP first, and you do not need a letter from a specialist. If you already have a referral, bring it, because it saves time at the first appointment. You do not need one to be seen.
Sometimes. ACC covers injury, not illness, and that distinction decides most pelvic health cases. Maternal birth injuries sustained on or after 1 October 2022 may be covered, as may an accidental injury such as a coccyx fracture from a fall.
Fees and ACC, explained in full →Three figures, one line each, published in full.
Initial pelvic health assessment $230, follow-up $140. With ACC cover, $200 and $115. GST included, and the same at both clinics.
Full fees and cover →If you are not sure whether pelvic health physiotherapy is the right place to start, book a free 15-minute discovery call. It is a phone conversation, not a sales call. You describe what has been happening, and we will tell you honestly whether we are likely to be able to help, what an assessment would involve and what it would cost. If we are not the right service for you, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
These calls are confidential and there is no obligation to book anything afterwards.
