Postnatal Assessment
Anytime after six weeks, we can perform a Postnatal Assessment for you! We discuss your birth and recovery so far, check your separation and pelvic floor (externally), go through deep core activation and give you some exercises to do at home. If time permits, we also like to squeeze in some treatment so you walk out feeling like a new human!

Return to Exercise
Are you looking for guidance when it comes to returning to exercise? We can help! Whether it’s running, pilates, yoga or even just walking - if you are unsure what advice to follow, let us guide you through this time!
How does it work bringing my baby?
-
Bring along whatever you need to make the session a little easier! We have a large treatment room that can fit your pram, or bring your capsule, blanket for the floor, or even your bouncer.
We can also bring your pram right up next to you on the bed, so your baby can stay close while you relax and focus on your treatment.
-
Yep, you read that right! If your little one is unsettled or hungry, feel free to feed or hold your baby whilst you receive treatment. We can modify the position you are in and change to sitting or side lying to make you more comfortable.
-
Feel free to play calming music or The Happy Song (if you know, you know) whilst you get treatment. We have heard them all and are happy to listen along if it helps to keep your baby or toddler calm!
-
If you’d prefer to bring someone along to your appointment, such as your mum, husband, sister or friend - please feel free! They can sit in the room with us and provide an extra set of hands! Or they can grab a coffee outside while you have treatment and come in if your baby becomes unsettled!
Why Choose Us?
Why Choose Us?
Our physiotherapist, Sophie, has been treating Mums for almost five years now! We create a calm environment for you to get the treatment that you need and can help lend a hand where possible!
This includes pushing the pram with our foot, putting your baby’s dummy back in, passing them toys that get dropped on the floor or getting out more snacks for your toddler!
