As a pelvic health physiotherapist with additional training in sexual health and foundational neuroscience, Bhawan believes in using education, exercise therapy, and evidence to help empower and uplift women within a comfortable and safe environment. Her passion for providing high quality pelvic and sexual health care was sparked when Bhawan found her close friends who had given birth more than once had never heard of pelvic health physiotherapy. This interest progressed further while Bhawan was working at a prenatal/postnatal care clinic and realized that women in her own community felt silenced when needing sexual health support.

She received a Masters of Physiotherapy from McMaster University after graduating with a Bachelor of Science from Carleton University with a major in Neuroscience. As well, Bhawan is one of few pelvic health physiotherapists in Ontario to have completed a post-graduate certificate in Sexual Health Education from the University of Alberta. Throughout her career, Bhawan has enjoyed educating others and currently holds a position as an Assistant Clinical Professor (Adjunct) at McMaster University and is co-founder of the Sikh Women’s Health Network. As well, she loves using her healthcare experience and sexual health training to develop community centred comprehensive pelvic and sexual health workshops to support proactive and inclusive health care.
