Women’s Health Physiotherapy

Confidential, individual support for pelvic health, pregnancy and postnatal recovery.

Whether you are experiencing bladder leakage, pelvic pressure, pregnancy-related pain or difficulties returning to exercise after having a baby, Ellie can assess what is happening and help you develop a plan that suits your body, lifestyle and goals.

How we can help

Your first appointment

Your appointment will begin with a confidential discussion about your symptoms, health, lifestyle and goals. Depending on your concerns, the physical assessment may include:

  • Posture, movement and breathing

  • Back, hip and pelvic movement

  • Abdominal muscle function

  • Pelvic floor function

  • Strength and control

  • Scars following a caesarean, tear or other surgery

  • The movements or activities that bring on your symptoms

An internal vaginal examination may sometimes be helpful, but it is never compulsory. Your physiotherapist will explain why it may be recommended and ask for your consent. You can decline or stop the examination at any time.

You will then receive an explanation of the findings and an individual treatment or rehabilitation plan.
