When I look back at my journey so far, I’m proud of the steps I’ve taken, and continue to take, to become the best pelvic health physiotherapist I can be.
It’s been a mix of formal education, mentorship, hands-on experience, and a genuine passion for helping people regain confidence and comfort in their own bodies. Here are a few of the key things that have shaped my practice:
💡 A Solid Educational Foundation
It all began with my Physiotherapy degree, where I built a strong understanding of human anatomy, movement, and rehabilitation principles. This gave me the foundation I needed to specialise in pelvic health.
👩🏫 Learning From a Mentor
Having a mentor in the field has been invaluable. guidance has helped me develop not just technical skills, but also clinical reasoning, empathy, and the confidence to handle sensitive conversations with care.
📚 Ongoing Professional Development
I’ve made a commitment to lifelong learning by completing specialised pelvic health courses. Each one has deepened my understanding of the complexities of pelvic floor function, pain management, and holistic rehabilitation.
✈️ Learning from the Best
One of the most enriching experiences was flying to Ireland to learn directly from experts in pelvic health physiotherapy. Immersing myself in their expertise and passion was truly inspiring and has elevated my clinical practice.
💬 Continuous Growth and Reflection
Being a pelvic health physiotherapist means constantly reflecting, listening, and evolving. It’s a field that demands sensitivity, knowledge, and a genuine desire to make a difference and I’m grateful every day to be part of it.
✨ Every course, every patient, every conversation has added another layer to the practitioner I am today and I can’t wait to see how much more I can grow and contribute to this incredible field.
