Alma Physiotherapy Physiotherapy, pelvic physiotherapy, women's health, yoga & pilates
Honest, informative, transparent. Why is womens’ health important?

Your pelvic floor does more than you think! We rely on it when we laugh, cry, sneeze or do sports to make sure we don’t have any unwanted leakage downstairs. Liz has a masters in physiotherapy, is trained in medical acupuncture and pilates and has worked in France. In France, at least 10 physiotherapy sessions are provided after birth. Unfortunately this is not always the case in the UK! Frustrate

d with underfunded NHS resources and with inspiration taken from the brilliant post-natal care in France, Liz is on a mission to make womens’ health important and as standard for women in the UK. Everybody is different and your treatment program will be tailored to your needs. For this reason, the first session is always a little longer to allow time for planning and make sure you’re happy with what to do next. To book in with Liz for physiotherapy or 1-2-1 pilates at the Alma Vale Centre either call tel:+441173771186 or book online via https://www.almaphysiotherapy.co.uk/appointments .

HI BRISTOL MAMAS, HOW ARE YOU? 🤍
⁠
Postnatal recovery is not just one appointment. The 6 week “sign off” just doesn’t cut it.

It is a process, and support matters. In France, 10 sessions after any birth type is standard, and we think that makes a lot of sense!

Holistic care means a lot to us here at Alma.
⁠
Our Post-Birth Mummy MOT+ Postnatal package offers ongoing, personalised care beyond an initial assessment, and saves you money!⁠

Depending on what you choose, you could be saving £10-£50!
⁠
This package includes⁠
🤍 A full postnatal physio assessment⁠
🌸 A choice of C-section scar therapy, 6 week course of mum and baby pilates, posntatal massage, breast physio, reflexology, acupuncture or coaching.
🤍 Individual guidance for pelvic floor and abdominal recovery⁠
🌸 Support with returning to movement and exercise⁠ (according to up to date evidence)
⁠
This option is right for you if you want more than one off advice and value continuity as your body changes after birth.⁠
⁠
If you would like to book a Post-Birth Mummy MOT+ Postnatal package, for you or a friend, you can do so via the link in our bio 🤍

WHAT TO EXPECT FOR SCAR THERAPY?⁠

Amy is our in-house scar specialist and is specially trained to help you with reconnecting to your core, and we offer an scar specific appointment for this.⁠

Using specialist scar therapy to reconnect to your core is a wonderful and extremely effective treatment.,

If you know anyone struggling with a bothersome scar, please let them know we can help! Amy is now an expert trainer in scar therapy, so you’ll be in safe hands.⁠

It’s not too late to seek help - scars older than 2 years take a little longer, but changes are still possible from the first session.⁠

🤍 Ovarian cancer awareness⁠
⁠
Around 7,500 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer in the UK each year, and only around 1 in 3 women live 10 years or more after diagnosis, according to .⁠
⁠
Symptoms can often be vague or easily overlooked, which is why awareness matters.⁠
⁠
These may include⁠
🤍 Persistent bloating⁠
🌸 Pelvic or abdominal pain⁠
🤍 Feeling full quickly when eating⁠
🌸 Changes in bladder or bowel habits⁠
⁠
Having these symptoms does not mean something serious is wrong. But if they are new, persistent, and happening frequently, it is important to seek medical advice.⁠
⁠
A helpful guide is if symptoms are present more than 12 times in a month, or are not settling, it is worth getting checked.⁠
⁠
At Alma, we often support people with pelvic symptoms that can feel confusing or difficult to talk about. Knowing what feels normal for your body, and when something has changed, is an important part of pelvic health.⁠
⁠
If you have questions or concerns about pelvic symptoms, you are not alone, and support is available 🤍

RESEARCH SPOTLIGHT 🔍⁠
⁠
Keeping up to date with current research is a core part of how we practise at Alma.⁠
⁠
We regularly review new evidence to help inform our assessments, clinical reasoning, and the advice we give our patients, always alongside individual needs and lived experience.⁠
⁠
Research helps guide care, but it never replaces listening, assessment, and personalised support.⁠
⁠
If you would like evidence informed, thoughtful pelvic health care, you can book in with our physios for birth prep session via the link in our bio 🤍
