New Mum Checks

We offer new mums a full check up/assessment & treatment.

This will include checking for any separation between your abdominal muscles (diastasis rectus abdominus/DRA), a pelvic floor muscle contraction assessment, postural assessment & breathing techniques. We will also discuss with you & check for any signs of bladder, bowel or sexual dysfunction.

We advise that you book in anytime after your 6 week check with your GP, when you feel ready to be assessed and start treatment. This can be anywhere from 6 weeks to 5 years +!

We understand that caring for your baby can put a lot of strain on your body. We aim to advise & assist in improving your functional strength to allow for pushing a buggy, lifting a car seat in & out of the car & finding a comfortable feeding position.

We also know the effects that pregnancy & childbirth can have on the body & as specialist women’s health physiotherapists, we are able to tailor treatment to your specific needs to avoid any longer term problems to occur.
