Services We Provide
A Personal Approach
Mummy MOT
A comprehensive postnatal review where I check your functional movement,
breathing, any diastasis (tummy gap), and C-section if applicable. I
will also undertake an internal vaginal examination to assess your
pelvic floor.
I will provide guidance on how to return to exercise safely and give you
advice regarding any further treatment that may be required.
You will receive a report of all the findings.
Pelvic Physiotherapy
The initial consultation starts with a discussion where I take an
in-depth history and listen to your priorities and your concerns.
I then undertake a physical examination looking at posture, functional
movement and pelvic floor function.
Finally, we review the findings, plan any necessary treatment and
discuss your goals and objectives.
Abdominal scar release
This treatment will reduce tightness, improve appearance and reduce
symptoms associated with internal scar tissue.
I take a history and we discuss how your scar is affecting you,
functionally and aesthetically.
I assess your abdominal wall, your breathing and then apply targeted
massage to mobilise the scar.
I also teach you some techniques you can use at home to continue the
improvement.
These treatments work best as a course of 3 x one hour sessions.
Visceral Therapy
Visceral manipulation is a specialised therapy to release restrictions
in the body's fascia
(The fascia is the thin connective tissue that surrounds all the body's
organs).
These restrictions can be the result of surgery, illness, or injury.
Symptoms such as bloating, pain, bowel and bladder dysfunction might
indicate fascial restrictions.
This treatment can also alleviate symptoms associated with endometriosis.
I take your medical history and we discuss your current concerns and
goals. I conduct a hands-on assessment of your fascia and then gently
mobilise the tissue to release the restrictions.
Treatment is carried out in your underwear.
Antenatal Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain is a common but not normal part of pregnancy. It can present
as back pain, leg pain, or pain within the pelvis. It can restrict
mobility and function, along with being extremely uncomfortable.
Pelvic dysfunction is common in later pregnancy. It can present as
incontinence, heaviness in the pelvic area, and discomfort in the vulval
area.
In this session, I will give you a full assessment, hands-on treatment,
and advice on how you can support yourself at home.
Pilates
These sessions are physio-led with a focus on each individual's needs,
The first session, therefore, includes taking a medical history and an
assessment. This enables me to tailor exercises to your ability and goals.
The classes are small (limited to 4) to maintain this personalised approach.
Classes are booked in blocks of 6 and run alongside the school calendar.
1:1 sessions can be booked on a pay-as-you-go basis or as a package.
