PELVIC HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPY SERVICES
PELVIC PAIN
Treatment of any issues caused by problems of the pelvis or bladder.
One in three women will suffer from a pelvic floor related issue at some stage in their lives.
PREGNANCY
Pregnancy is a wonderful time in a woman’s life and your body will undergo a huge amount of change.
This change can create pregnancy related aches and pains as well as issues with bladder, bowel and pelvic floor dysfunction.
MUMMY MOT
Pregnancy and childbirth can affect a woman’s body dramatically. Posture is altered, muscles weaken and tissue can be traumatised. Juggling new baby and trying to get your body back is challenging and without guidance can also exacerbate these weaknesses.
The Mummy MOT is an in-depth postnatal assessment that assesses posture, scar sites, the strength, activation and function of all muscles including the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles following childbirth. It is suitable any time from 6 weeks postnatal.
POST NATAL
After having a baby most women may experience a weakness in either the tummy or pelvic floor area which can create instability and affect core strength. The result may be altered transfer load, back pain, pelvic pain, and bladder and bowel issues.

TESTIMONIALS
Just to say, thank you both so much for your running technique/run-planning input. I ran Oxford Half yesterday in a pb of 1.35.04 (pb by about 2 minutes, which had been my aspiration for ages) – totally unexpected given my main goal was to get round uninjured.

Amy, my physiotherapist, has been amazing clearly explaining each stage of the treatment & rehabilitation program with patience and a fun and enthusiastic manner. Setting progressive and varied exercises to build strength & stability for my return to competitive racket sports and running.This manner has been instrumental in maintaining motivation throughout the process and it has been extremely rewarding to see the considerable progress made because of this.
ANDY
In terms of rehabilitation offering, I feel I have had access to a 360’ program, as in addition to the physiotherapy my posture, walking and running has been videoed and analysed which has transformed my gait and running technique to minimise further injury.I have also had access to sports massages to maintain flexibility to maximise the results of the rehabilitation and strengthening exercises at home and in their fantastic gym and exercise area all on site.A big thank you to the whole team.
DEREK
For the previous two months I had been hobbling around like Quasimodo’s elder sister. Three months and eight treatments later, reinforced by "Walking Retraining" - to correct my gait and posture, I feel like a new woman. My hip is all but better, my back hasn’t been so good in years and my mojo has returned

The Performance Matrix, an individualised programme, which has targeted my weak areas in order that I can attain new goals: cycling, yoga and 13 hour shifts on my feet!!! My long term goal is to get back skiing which I can now see is a possibility. And the best bit - I no longer have to spend 30 minutes stretching each day to relieve my pain ?

Without having done the Performance Matrix movement screen, I would never have been able to remain injury free while training for and running the London marathon this year. You certainly have to commit to doing the exercises but the results have allowed me to feel that I am in the best shape I could possibly be
