Feeling bothered by the ‘overhang ‘ tha sometimes happens after a C-section ?

It’s caused by your abdominals stretching in pregnancy , then surgery tucks in this a tissue .. they cut through 7 layers of tissue with a C-section and fascial tissue can get stuck down and tight.

Other scars can become ‘hypertrophic ‘ or red and raised and others wider known as keloid .

Good hydration - pelvic floor / core exercises - C-section scar massage - the right creams / gels ( I love Alhydran gel & Scarban silicon strips ) and I also use a lymphatouch device to help lift and release tight stuck down scar tissue .

If you’re feeling frustrated or even just had a C-section and want some guidance get in touch , book a mummy MOT ( for new mums ) , a complimentary scar check if you unsure what to do or if you’d like to start treatment book a scar therapy session

I am now offering baby physiotherapy for infants and young children (0–5 years).

I support babies presenting with:
• Developmental delays
• Head turning preferences, including torticollis
• Early movement concerns

This work builds on many years of supporting mothers and babies within my women’s health practice, alongside a specialist background in paediatric physiotherapy within the NHS.

My approach is calm, thorough, and highly individualised — focusing on gentle, developmentally appropriate support for both baby and parent.

If you have any concerns about your baby’s development or movement, you are very welcome to get in touch.

So many women experience one or more of these symptoms and assume it’s just something they have to live with.

Leaking, heaviness, core weakness, or pelvic discomfort are very common — especially after having children or during perimenopause — but they’re not something you should have to just put up with.

Often these symptoms are a sign that your pelvic floor, core or movement patterns need some support and retraining.

Whether you’re:

• recently postnatal
• a few years after having children
• returning to exercise
• or noticing changes in midlife

there is so much we can do to help improve how your body feels and functions.

I currently have a few pelvic health and Mummy MOT appointments available over the next couple of weeks, and as a little spring / Mother’s Day treat, some bookings are also receiving a Park Farm spa pass 🌸

I’m at Park Farm Therapy Rooms & and the gorgeous at Keswick Hall .

If you’ve been wondering whether physio might help, you’re very welcome to send me a message or book via the link in my bio.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums and women in this community 🌸

One of the things I see so often in clinic is women quietly putting up with symptoms that they’ve been told are “just part of motherhood” or “normal after babies”.

Things like leaking when you sneeze, pelvic heaviness, abdominal weakness, or pain during exercise are actually very common — but they aren’t something you have to simply live with.

The body goes through a lot through pregnancy, birth, motherhood and later in life through perimenopause and hormonal changes. With the right support, many of these symptoms can improve significantly.

I feel very lucky to work with so many incredible women helping them rebuild strength, confidence and pelvic health through these different stages of life.

And today feels like a good reminder that mums deserve care too 💛

If you’ve been thinking about getting support for your body, this could be a lovely time to start.

Wishing you all a very happy Mother’s Day.

🌸 Mother’s Day & Spring Treat for Mums & Women 🌸

I’ve partnered with the beautiful Park Farm Hotel , Hethersett spa to create something special this spring.

For the first 10 women who book a pregnancy physio check, Mummy MOT, or women’s pelvic health appointment, I’m gifting a complimentary spa & pool pass so you can take some time to relax as well.

It’s such a lovely space to:

✨ enjoy a gentle swim during pregnancy
✨ bring your baby for their first swim
✨ relax and reconnect with your body after birth
✨ take some well-deserved time out

Many women come to see me for support with things like:

• pelvic floor symptoms (leaking, heaviness, urgency)
• abdominal separation after pregnancy
• pelvic, back or hip pain during pregnancy
• returning safely to exercise after having a baby
• pelvic health concerns at any stage of life

During your appointment we assess your pelvic floor, core and movement, so you leave with a clear understanding of how your body is recovering and what will support you best.

✨ Bonus: I’m also offering free pelvic health Pilates taster sessions throughout March & April if you’d like help rebuilding strength afterwards.

There are only 10 spa passes available, so once they’re gone the offer will close.

You can book your appointment via the link in my bio.

Feel free to share this with any pregnant or postnatal mums who might love a little support (and relaxation too).

Birth prep doesn’t have to mean hours of exercises - often it’s about a few simple, well-supported movements done regularly.

These three are favourites I use in clinic and classes to help the body feel more open, supported and connected during pregnancy.

1. Psoas & side body stretch 🙆🏽‍♀️

How to? Come into a gentle lunge. Tuck your tailbone under slightly. Keeping that tuck, take the arm of the back leg up and over and breathe into the side ribs.

Why? Releases through the psoas and front of the hip, which can get tight in pregnancy. A more supple psoas = more space and ease for baby to move and for your pelvis to adapt in labour.

2. Cat cow with pelvic floor glide 🐱/🐮

How to? Inhale as you move into a gentle cow (tailbone lifting, chest open) and imagine the pelvic floor softening and widening. Exhale into cat, hugging baby in and slightly tucking the tailbone under.

Why? Encourages the pelvic floor to both lengthen and gently support. This coordination is key for birth and helps avoid excessive gripping or tension.

3. Cat cow rock backs 🐱/🐮

How to? From hands and knees, take one leg out to the side. Keep hips level.
Inhale forwards, then exhale to rock back, imagining the sit bones widening as you move.

Why? Mobilises the pelvis and pelvic floor, helping you feel how the pelvic outlet can widen. Great awareness for labour positions and for easing pelvic tension.

🌀 If you’d like individual support with birth prep, pelvic floor or pregnancy aches and pains, you can book a free 15-minute consultation via the link in bio 🌀

✨ Or, if you’re wanting to confidently support pregnant women with movement and education through your work, the next round of Boudica Method training is open now... follow the link in bio or DM to find out more ✨

You've probably heard about how breathing can be a really powerful tool during labour... here's some of the techniques I like to teach my pregnant clients to help them prepare for birth.

✨ Balloon breathing (early labour)
Breathing gently into the tummy, imagining oxygen travelling down towards the uterus, with a long, slow exhale through the mouth as the 'balloon' deflates. This can help keep the body relaxed and conserve energy early on.

✨ Golden thread breathing (transition / baby turning)
A deep breath in through the nose, followed by a long exhale through the mouth, imagining a golden thread spiralling down and around. This can help focus the breath and soften tension during more intense contractions.

✨ J-breath (crowning / gentle pushing)
Breathing in, then exhaling while imagining a soft “J” shape travelling down and out with the breath. This encourages controlled, gentle pushing and helps avoid bearing down too forcefully.

Every labour is different, but having breathing tools to draw on can help you feel more grounded, supported and connected to your body.
