The next term of Mini & Me is fast approaching! Please get in touch via DM or text on 0448360628 if you’re keen to get moving postpartum under the guidance of a pelvic floor physio 🤎

Mini & Me is suitable for women at least 6 weeks postpartum - come as you are, bring bub and move in a way that feels gentle yet challenging in all the right ways. As Mums we need to be strong to meet the demands of our little people, and Mini & Me helps to build the foundations of doing just that!

will be holding down the fort for our mastitis service over the long weekend while I’m away 🤍

Don’t hesitate to get in contact if you feel the following in your lactating breast:
👉 a tender lump
👉 redness of the skin on the breast
👉 increased temperature on the affected side

These are signs of a blocked duct that we can help you get on top of with therapeutic ultrasound and guide you around management at home 🤍

This one’s for the baby and toddler Mum’s! 👶🏻

Come and join me (and my little mate in a pram) for a walk on the Rail Trail! We’ll be going for 1.5km towards Ango then turning around to come back to the start point. See the map on the second slide for where to meet! 📍

All are welcome to come for a walk and a yap, whether you’re a past or current client, or maybe you’re just keen to get out and about with your little one/s and meet some other Mums!! 🤎

Put it on the calendar and keep your fingers crossed that the weather is OK 😅

Looking forward to seeing you there!!

Let’s talk about Pregnancy Assessments & Birth Prep with a women’s health physio! 🤲

Swipe for my thoughts on great reasons to come along for an assessment during each stage of pregnancy 🤰🏼

*Important note: Internal vaginal examinations are not undertaken during pregnancy until after the 20 week scan. Before 20 weeks, or in high risk pregnancies where an internal is contraindicated (low lying placenta or incompetent cervix), assessment of your pelvic floor can include real time ultrasound or external visual assessment. The reason I mention this is to manage expectations of what is possible at different appointments during your pregnancy 🤍

Do you NEED to see a women’s health physio during pregnancy?
No way! You don’t NEED to do anything 🥳 It’s 100% up to you! I’m very biased but I think within physio we can do so much to help prep the tissues to reduce risk of physical birth trauma (evidence backs this!) So based on that, I encourage any pregnant women keen to optimise their pelvic floor for birth to come along to the clinic!

Any questions? Please let me know!
