Meet Alina

Alina Filipe Nunes Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist

At Verve Men’s Clinic, we were lucky enough to secure the expertise of Alina Filipe as our Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist.

Alina is an APA titled pelvic floor physiotherapist, with a Masters and a postgraduate diploma in Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy from Curtin University and graduating from a diploma in Counselling.

She is involved in research and advocacy in sexual and pelvic pain and now calls Townsville home. Alina is trained in pelvic floor physiotherapy for female and male (designated at birth) conditions as well as kids/ paediatrics.

Having lived with pelvic pain most of her life, Alina can empathise with those living with pain. This led to her creating her volunteering and mentoring platform The Pelvic Tuner. Alina helps people with pelvic pain, and mentors other pelvic floor physiotherapists about pelvic conditions such as incontinence, sexual and pelvic pain, anorectal problems and prolapse.

Every patient is unique and results may vary. Invasive procedures carry risks which need to be discussed with your doctor to ensure you are fully informed and realistic outcomes have been explained. We recommend seeking a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner for all medical procedures.
