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! Frustrated 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 .

Christmas can amplify connection but it can also amplify harm.

At Alma, we believe healing begins with being seen and supported.
If you or someone you love is struggling, reaching out for support can be the first brave step. You’re not alone. 🤍
Resources we recommend:
