Somatic Womankind

Somatic Womankind 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.

Everyone I talk to is feeling especially stressed this year.

Myself included.

The past few weeks have seen my anxiety rise and a sense of panic set in at times.

So here are some of the things I have done to support my nervous system during an increasingly stressful time to support me to return to baseline regulation and greater sense of calm and ease.

That won’t cost you a cent.

An anti-capitalist self care and nervous system support checklist, if you will.

Because let’s face it, capitalism has taken over wellness and made it an expensive affair.

It doesn’t have to be.

In fact, true nervous system regulation comes from the every day

The things we put into practice over and over again, day in day out.

That aren’t necessarily instagrammable, but that really count.

Which one is your favourite?

My nervous system has been more dysregulated the past week or so than it has been in a while.

Waking up with a sense of anxiety, worry, too many things in my head.

There is, at this time of year, a barrage of emails, especially from schools, things that need doing, bills that need paying , shopping that needs doing.

The consumerist pressure.

The urgency of ‘Black Friday’ sales.

The getting everything ready for Christmas.

The traditions.

The anticipation perhaps of spending time with people we might not really want to, that brings up old conflict.

The people missing.

But we don’t have to buy into ALL of it.

We can simplify Christmas

Put off the sales and not buy into consumerism

We can prioritise local

Small

Considered

Ethical.

What can you let go of this year?

… and more to come on ways you can prioritise your nervous system this silly season

He was 37. And left behind a 2yo son.

In the days after Mike’s death I felt myself desperately searching for what I can only describe as a wrinkle in time, a thread, that would allow me to find a way to go back in time

To hold my brother
To tell him I loved him.

I barely slept or ate for the first month

I sobbed every day for well over a year.

I drank more than I should have. Sure, in a way to ease my suffering, but more as a way of connecting to my brother. We often would go to the pub for a few beers and a lot of laughs.

I developed PTSD like symptoms. Not exactly from his death, but from the memories of our childhood experiences that were triggered by his death.

I had a lot of therapy.

I sat with my grief. I felt it. All of it.

I walked, no I crawled on my knees, bleeding, through the darkness of a hell one can only imagine if you’ve lived it. With very few people who really got it. It was incredibly lonely.

6 years on, there is a melancholy that resides in my soul, one that is now a welcome friend, a reminder of my loss and my ongoing love for my brother. Not something I feel needs to be banished. But held, tenderly with gentle hands.

Because I know, life is filled with deep sadness, grief, loss, terror, shame, anger, pain as much as it is with joy and love and hope. All of them bring to us the richness of life. A depth of living, and loving.

I have sat with the darkness in my soul. My deepest suffering. I have endured.

And I will sit with you in yours.

I will not look away.

With a significant increase in late cancellation requests and even a couple of no shows in recent weeks - this feels like an important reminder -

Have you ever wondered what it costs to run a private Women’s Health physiotherapy service?

Where do your fees go?

There are some considerable ongoing expenses involved in running a private clinic....

💲 rent is the biggest single output
💲 insurances
💲 practice management software for bookings, payments, SMS reminder texts etc
💲 payment facilities
💲 other software subscriptions - for exercise programs, form completion etc
💲 professional registrations and memberships - AHPRA, APA, CFA, PPFA
💲 journal subscriptions
💲 minimum 20 hours annually of mandatory professional development
💲 consumables - gloves, lubricant, blue underpads, tissues, wipes, handgel
💲 laundry
💲 cleaning
💲 electricity
💲virtual or in person admin support

And more…

Women’s health physios typically allocate a considerable amount of time per client. More than regular physio, much more than GPs. In my space, I allocate even more time than most.

And don’t forget the significant experience, expertise and training of your physio, the life changing difference pelvic health physio can make.

The APA recently recommended physios of extensive experience charge $300 per hour to cover all of this.

This is why businesses have cancellation policies. Because when someone cancels at short notice, these costs are unrecoverable.

My policy requires a minimum of 2 business days notice for requests to change your appointment time.

Please keep this in mind as we head into the silly season.

Time to Flourish

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 sometimes overshadowed by the birth of a baby, and mothers often get lost in the picture. At Flourish, our goal is to enable you to flourish as a mother, to focus on your wellbeing so you can thrive.

I’m Kelly, a mother to three young girls and a physiotherapist with almost 10 years experience in continence and pelvic health. I have completed extensive training in pregnancy and birth, incontinence and prolapse, sexual health, trauma, and pelvic pain. I love everything about what I do, and I would love to help you to achieve your wellbeing goals on your journey in motherhood.

At this stage, I will be available on Thursdays and some Saturdays by appointment only. To make an appointment, please contact me via my mobile or send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you to achieve your health and wellbeing goals.
