POSTNATAL PHYSIOTHERAPY ASSESSMENTS

Bringing a baby into the world is an incredible experience — but pregnancy and birth also place significant demands on your body. While much attention is understandably focused on your baby’s health, your recovery matters too.

We also offer assessments for any mother's still working on their recover post-pregnancy and birth.

Pelvic pain is more common than people think—and you don’t have to just “live with it.”

May is Pelvic Pain Awareness Month, and we want to highlight how physiotherapy can help reduce pain, improve function, and get you back to doing the things you enjoy.

We have women’s health pelvic pain physiotherapists, Sophie & Mahlie, and men’s health pelvic pain physiotherapist, Zoe, offering tailored, evidence-based care in a supportive environment.

Pelvic Pain Awareness Month

Pelvic pain is defined as pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic region that may involve the reproductive organs, bladder, bowel, muscles, or nerves. It can be persistent and often has multiple contributing factors.

Pelvic pain is common, complex, and frequently misunderstood — and it can affect people of all genders.

May is Pelvic Pain Awareness Month.
Join us in raising awareness, improving understanding, and supporting better care.
