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 .

READY TO RUN? Let’s go! 🏃🏻‍♀️
We’ve had some wonderful research papers on the last few years on returning to running (after any birth type), and it means we can guide you so much better!
Strength, the right bra and sleep all come into play. One size does not fit all (frustratingly), and comparing to others is tempting but not always the answer.
Anything you’d add?
Link in bio to book in for a physio Mummy MOT postnatal check to see how we could help you prep for returning to running.
P.s. we absolutely love .running.psychologist page for an honest view when it comes to the ups and downs of being a runner!

YOU HAD QUESTIONS!
Liz had an influx of questions from her reel talking about how to care for your pelvic floor at a festival, and so here is a more in-depth version of those tips.
Much of narrative in the media talks about pelvic floor squeezes or kegels, but there isn’t enough focus (in our eyes) on reverse kegels or how to “let go” of the pelvic floor, and WHY this is so important.
So here’s a bit more info on why you should be thinking about your pelvic floor at a festival!
We absolutely love getting more questions, and want to provide you with as much info as we can. There is a lot of misinformation on this topic, so let’s get the right answers out there 💪
If you found this helpful please like & share. Link in bio to book in with one of our physios 🤍
Hope you have a fabulous time! 🌈
