Body, breath and soul nourishment through expert physiotherapy, yoga and somatic practices Welcome to Flourish Physiotherapy!

It’s long been a dream of mine to start a practice where the wellbeing of women is at the heart of everything we do. Becoming a mother is such a monumental event, but the enormity is often overshadowed by the birth of a baby, and mothers often get lost in the picture. At Flourish, my goal is to provide you with a space to be heard, to be encouraged and supported to reach your goals, to flourish as a mother and to focus on your wellbeing so you (and your family) can thrive. I’m Kelly, a mother to three young girls and a physiotherapist with over a decade experience in continence and pelvic health. I have completed extensive training in pregnancy and birth, incontinence and prolapse, sexual health, trauma, pelvic pain and much more. I am also a trained yoga and meditation teacher. I love everything about what I do, and I would love to help you to achieve your wellbeing goals on your journey in motherhood. Whether you are thinking about starting a family, or had your last baby years ago, I would love to hear from you. Appointments:

In 2022, I will be available for in-clinic assessments on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Occasionally Saturday clinics are available. To make an appointment, you can call, message or head online to my website www.flourishphysiotherapy.com.au

Online Learning Portal:
I now have an online learning portal where you can get access to a number of online learning options including:
- my new postnatal yoga classes specifically designed for mums of babies and young children who struggle to get to a studio at set times
- my hugely popular Antenatal Core and Floor Workshop from the comfort of your own home
- a 6 week postnatal core recovery program for all types of birth experiences

Simply head to my website and click on the online learning portal link or head directly to www.flourishonline.podia.com

I look forward to meeting you and supporting you to achieve your health and wellbeing goals.

By popular demand- tips for supporting a new habit.

A large portion of my work as a women’s health physio is coaching women to implement the things we work out though discussion and assessment that would enhance wellbeing and reduce (or eliminate) symptoms.

If you see yourself as ‘bad’ , ‘lazy’ or ‘hopeless’ for struggling to implement new, healthy habits, this one’s for you.

And if you found it useful, please share it with others

Some thoughts I’m having as international Women’s Day approaches tomorrow.

Audre Lordes quote always rings loud :

“I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own”

Ladies - celebrate with joy and love tomorrow, but let’s not be complacent on all that still needs to be done

May the world be a matriarchy.

Where all people are equal and cared for.

Where the vulnerable are protected.

Where community is valued

Where Mother Earth is revered, valued and protected.

Happy international women’s day to all the women in my life, I am so grateful for you all

Big love x

And - If this resonated- please share and spread the word. United we make change!

It’s a minefield out there.

This applies not just to health advice but to anything you consume on social media.

Likes and shares don’t equal truth.

Popularity doesn’t make an expert.

Please, now more than ever, think critically.

Remember you are in an echo chamber.

Seek out trusted, trained people.

Seek out real life community.

Ovarian cancer is the 6th leading cause of cancer related death in Australia, with around 1000 (3 per day) women dying every year in this country.

The 5 year survival rate is around 50%.

Often because symptoms of early disease are vague and easily dismissed.

Symptoms like
- persistent abdominal bloating
- feeling full quickly after eating
- loss of appetite
- indigestion
- bladder urgency/frequency
- altered bowel habit
- painful in*******se
-pelvic/low back pain

Risk increases with age, family history, genetics, delayed childbirth (after age 35) or not having children, early onset periods and late menopause.

This February, if you are experiencing symptoms, see your GP - early diagnosis is the key to long term survival.

Some notes on clinic etiquette:

1. Please arrive on time for your appointment (or 5 minutes early). This clinic runs pretty much on time. Unfortunately, if you are late to your appointment, it will mean less time for your session so as not to affect the client coming in after you.

Occasionally I may be 5 minutes late - I’m usually only late if I’ve had to deliver difficult news or something significant has come up. If I am more than 10 minutes late I will always try to let you know so you can grab a coffee or fill up your petrol tank (or whatever you might need to do!)

2. On arrival, you can ring the bell once, so I know you’re here, then please wait quietly in the waiting room. Please avoid talking loudly on your phone, playing music or catching up on Netflix/ TikTok etc (headphones are fine).

Remember that I offer meditation, breathwork and many somatic options - when you are loud in the waiting room this can be disruptive to the current session.

3. If you have clinical questions between sessions, please write them all down and bring them with you to your next session. If they are more urgent, please reach out and request an earlier appointment.

For medico-legal reasons I cannot provide clinical advice between sessions.

Thank you for your understanding

About this afternoon….

Thank you to all who joined me

Who shared their stories, their worries, their journeys

And their wisdom.

We gathered, we shed old stories and labels, to become wise crones!

Living with persistent pain is hard.

An invisible illness. You look “normal” on the outside, no one can see your pain. Your struggle. How hard some days are just to get out of bed and get going.

The fear of a flare.

The searching for triggers and patterns.

The endless seeking of a cure. The things you have tried.

If you’re looking for someone to support you with your persistent pain, I get it.

Not just as a highly trained and experienced clinician working with pelvic pain.

But from my own lived experience with persistent pain.

If you live locally you would have felt the wind come up yesterday afternoon- that drop in pressure caused an increase in my pain and left me finding sleep elusive last night.

Heat and medication were needed.

Thoughts that came to mind
- a bad flare is coming
- my treatment strategies aren’t working any more
- this is bad
and more!

I had to regulate myself, soothe my brain and my thoughts and reassure myself. Remind myself this will pass.

And today, I’ve been fine again. Mostly symptom free.

I get it, the intrusive thoughts. the hyper vigilance, the worry.

I see you.

I know. On a deeply somatic level.

And I’m here to support you on your journey.

If you are living with persistent pelvic pain, and would like support from someone who gets it, I’d love to walk with you on your journey.

Wait times are 3-4 weeks at the moment.
