Happy Friday 💜 This is me. Jo 💜

I have been working with women for the last two decades and women's health Osteopathy since 2012 💜

I am super passionate about helping women through life..
Pregnancy, birth, postnatal, peri to post menopause and beyond.

I help women join the dots on everything they are going through. The women who don't know where to turn next. Who have loads of questions and no answers. Who have pain but don't know why. Who have pelvic pain, pelvic issues, prolapse, period changes, mood changes , sleep disturbances, ADHD, gut issues, leaking, perimenopause symptoms, endometriosis, fatigue, complex medical history, birth trauma, episiotomy and perineal scars, postnatal healing, diastasis recti, hormone problems.....

I've got you. 🙏🏻

You can book to see me

I have three types of appointments to book as your 1st appointment :

💜 Women's Health
💜 PGP *Pelvic Girdle Pain* in pregnancy or pregnancy specific appointment
💜 MummaCHECK postnatal appointment.

We talk a lot. I get to know you and understand you, and put a plan of action together.

Hands on treatment involves whole body care. Using myofascial, visceral, abdominal release work, pelvic floor and internal release work and pelvic floor scar and myofascial release, scar therapy, joint manipulations, pilates, rehab and more.

I have amazing osteopaths I work with at Herts Osteopathy for all of your needs. Helping the whole family, and cranial Osteopaths Maria and Steve for your babies and children.

Also lots of other wonderful people who are also awesomely supporting women in St Albans too. So we can really all help you together. Love our St Albans Community.

Hitting the home gym.. It's nowhere near as easy when you don't have the variety of the gym, and perhaps the amount of weights, cables and resources as you'd get at the gym, but you can still make gains, make progress, or at least prevent a backwards step (or 2!!)..

On snow days, it's also much easier to just do your training at home. ❄️❄️❄️❄️

My very first EVER home training was on a snow day over ten years ago, I couldn't get to the gym, so found by and LITERALLY never looked back. I've been an avid member of ever since and have always loved the variety of and in my weekly routine. It was especially awesome when my kids were babies, and would do that amazing three hour lunchtime nap every day. So I could always fit in a home workout, lunch and chill before they woke up, which was fab!! And meant I never missed a workout. And if not, I'd just get up early to do it. Thirty minutes in a day really isn't much to find... Just put it in the diary IN PEN!!! 😂😂

Exercise has always been what I love, part of my life since forever. It has kept me sane through the craziest of times, and consistently my stress reliever, my and I just couldn't be without it. Whether it is spin, pilates, weight training, ...

Find your time to train, head out for a walk, cycle or run, or hide away in a room with the door shut to train at home...
Claim that time, it's yours and it's needed. Whatever you love, do it, enjoy it, and

Until opens up again, I will keep doing what I'm doing. If you find what you love, then that's the best form of exercise therapy you can find!!!

Happy Snow Day everyone 💜💜💜💜💜

Wishing you all a safe happy 2021 💜💕❤️🙏🏻

Thank you to my gorgeous friend Becky
for my awesome birthday present courtesy of LOVE IT!!

Definitely felt it this morning
Heading to the gym is so needed for me right now.
Please don't shut the gyms! So important for keeping us all sane. Our mental health is of utmost importance right now, and we really need this. Sanitiser flowing, social distancing at its finest, and so much cleaning. It just feels so safe. Thank you

Feet up Friday!!! 💜💜💜💜

This has been a week of taking some down time, and has been at the forefront. You can get pretty lost with the craziness of our lives right now and so this was my week to reconnect, with friends and with myself. I've spent a lot of time away from my phone and away from social media, and generally feeling so much happier for it!!

OK so I was in clinic today with some of my super fab patients, but sandwiched a gorgeous lunch date with a beautiful friend and (awesome nutritionist guru)

Now I get my chilling with a hot chocolate and book. At the moment I'm reading and it's a whole wonderfulness of a novel. I urge you all to read it, magical and poignant, and so utterly thought provoking. It's a must read.

Hope you all have a fab weekend whatever you are doing. Grab those hugs and chats and zzzzzzs where you can this weekend. Life is precious, and we all need that downtime.

Osteo chat and champagne 💜💜💜
Super lucky to have a fab day catching up with gorgeous friends today.
A fab lunch with
(we never got a photo did we????)...

And a lovely afternoon catch up
Champagne Bar. Utterly gorgeous, and so lucky to have a day catching up with two awesome women.

This definitely counts as CPD doesn't it?!?!

Feeling blessed to have lovely friends to laugh and cry (or both at the same time!!!) with 💖🙏🏻💜 in this crazy bonkers world.

Think I'm a bit late to the party. Just reminded by

💜💜 Old pic taken by hubby, we were all completely unaware of being photographed, and I just love these types of photos.

God I love these two, now a good few years on... They're a bit older, but still utterly awesome. And we still love a sofa snuggle 💜💜💜💕💕💕

Hoping that lasts a little bit longer....

Everyone needs a

Such a well needed rest. This world is just bonkers right now for all of us. You think you're doing OK, then you're not, then you're on top of the world, and then you're not... It's all mad. Think it's pretty much like this for everyone. So it's soooooo good to tune out every once in a while.

Pretty good view for breakie, with a fab book. 💞💜

And now time to switch off...zzzzzz
Over and out.

21/08/2020

Time to unwind. Loving my Fridays off, and even better we had a proper family day today. Something positive to come out of covid is allowing myself to have days off, no guilt, no work, no emails, no admin. Just TIME.

Hope you've all had a fab one too!! Try to find the space to carve out your own time. We all need it!

Happy FRIYAY all 💜👊🏻

Loving my weekly sketching with ... it really is my escapism.
Life is tough as a mumma trying to do the whole home schooling thing, hormones, crazy kids, "she did this" "she did that".. I think we are all ready for school to open up properly again now. Littlest is enjoying her two days back... But both children back at regular school just feels a lifetime away right now...
I have found drawing again through the wonderful and I absolutely love it. A moment of calm amidst the crazy. Mindful and calming. A horse, and a donkey here. Lovely Bayleaf from , a quick sketch but such beautiful animals to draw.

Oh yes back to the 90s with my choice of MCHammer pants....
Hehe, totally living in gym gear during
Who else is with me?? Although, tbh... This is my pre lockdown life too!! No excuses 😂😍

I've had a funny week this week. Way more ups and downs than usual. Speaking to friends and patients of mine, it has been a similar feel for many of us. I wonder if it is the unknown and confusion surrounding the easing of lockdown. I guess we were feeling all safe in our lockdown bubbles, and this has been a bit of a change, and we don't really know what's going on. It's a weird time. But I've come out of it smiling... Predominantly because chatting to other people I realise we are all in this together... Plus, and a MAJOR PLUS..... It's going to be HOT, SUNSHINEY, SUNBATHING weather this week. So I'll be out in the garden doing some 'home schooling'... ☀️💜☀️💜☀️💜

So day today. Enjoying the feeling of the burn!! Love it!!

So have a happy sunny Sunday whatever you are doing, enjoy the week, and just think we are all in this
