If you’ve tried stretching, strengthening, or endless core work and your back pain still keeps coming back… there’s a good chance your pelvic floor is part of the story.

Your pelvic floor isn’t just about bladder control — it’s a group of deep muscles that form the base of your core.
It connects directly to your hips, spine, and diaphragm, working as part of one pressure system that supports every move you make.

When those muscles are too tight, they can pull on the pelvis and create tension through your lower back.
When they’re too weak or uncoordinated, your deep stability is lost — and your spine ends up doing all the heavy lifting.

So if you’ve been chasing back pain that never quite shifts… it might be time to look a little deeper.

✨ This is something I assess in every Mummy MOT and women's health appointment — because your back, core, and pelvic floor are all connected.

You don’t have to keep guessing or putting up with it. Your body makes sense once you understand what’s really going on. 💛

👉 Book your Mummy MOT or women's health assessment via the link in my bio and let’s get to the root of your pain — not just the symptoms.

🏃‍♀️ Thinking about running further — but worried what your pelvic floor might think about it?

You’re not alone.
So many women tell me they’d love to build distance, but they’re scared of leaking, heaviness, or something “not feeling quite right.”

The good news? You can run longer and protect your pelvic floor — it just takes smart training, good strength, and knowing what to watch for.

I’ve just written a new blog all about it 👉 “From 0 to 30km: How to Progress Your Run Without Sacrificing Pelvic Health.”

In it, I share:
✨ How to spot early pelvic floor warning signs
✨ My go-to tips for increasing mileage safely
✨ The best recovery habits for women runners

💬 Link in bio to read the full post — and if you’re training for a longer run, your pelvic floor will thank you for it!

Pregnancy doesn’t have to mean pain, leaks or pressure 👇

A Pregnancy MOT helps you stay strong and supported as your body changes —
and prepares your pelvic floor and core for birth and recovery.

It’s ideal if you want to stay active, reduce pain, and go into birth feeling confident and informed.

To the mums who feel like they’re not enough — you are. You’re the sun in their sky, the calm in their storm, the heart of their home. You created them — and that’s pretty damn amazing.

You make sure everyone else is okay – but when it comes to you, it’s always ‘I’ll do it later.’
I’ve been there too. The truth is, it’s not selfish to make time for your health – it’s essential.

You deserve to move, laugh, sneeze, and live without worrying about your body letting you down.
And sometimes, that first step is just reaching out for support.

Pregnant? What you do now can make a HUGE difference to your recovery later.

Your pelvic floor is working hard during pregnancy – supporting your baby, your bladder, and your body.
But there are simple things you can do now to reduce your risk of leaking, prolapse, and pain later on.

It doesn’t have to be overwhelming – even small changes make a difference.

✨ Share this with a pregnant friend – she’ll thank you later.
✨ And if you’d like a personalised check-in, you can book a Pregnancy MOT via the link in bio.

Not sure if your symptoms are normal? Let’s clear this up 👇

You’ve probably heard it: ‘Oh, that’s normal after having kids.’
But leaking, pain, or heaviness aren’t just something you have to "put up with."

These symptoms are common, but they’re signs your body needs support – not a life sentence.
A women’s health physiotherapy assessment can identify the cause and create a plan to help you recover properly.

💬 Have you been told something is ‘just normal’? Share it below – let’s break the silence.

Life update: the kids are back at school 🎒🙌 Which means I finally have a little more breathing space (and a hotter cup of coffee!) in my day.

It also means I’ve got more availability in clinic again – so if you’ve been waiting to book a Mummy MOT, pregnancy check, or women’s health appointment, now’s a great time.

I know how easy it is to put yourself at the bottom of the list when you’re juggling little ones. But you deserve support too – whether that’s to feel stronger, more confident, or just more you again.

Here’s your reminder: it’s not selfish to make time for your health 💕
