Reading the maternity interim report brings up a lot for me as a clinician and as a mum.

There are brilliant, passionate teams working tirelessly in maternity services, but there are also repeated stories of harm that should never have happened.

I hope things will change and real investment is made so safety and compassion aren’t dependent on luck or postcode.

The National Maternity and Neonatal Investigation is being led by Baroness Amos, whose interim report released today already makes for difficult reading. Those who have suffered are sceptical of real changes being made.

Some of today’s Pilates work.

Nothing fancy, just movement.

Fascinating evening at the launch of the Cymru Women in Sport strategy at the Senedd.

Inspiring to be surrounded by so many people passionate about getting more women in sport (and keeping them there).

I couldn’t help viewing the discussion through a pelvic health lens, which I think could be an important area to consider as the strategy develops.

A really positive night and excited to see what’s ahead 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.

A brilliant couple of days at the Pelvic Floor Society Annual Conference in Liverpool with Nicky! 🙌

Loved learning from fantastic speakers on everything from pelvic pain and bowel dysfunction to menopause, sexual health, IBS, and holistic pelvic floor care.

So inspiring to keep growing and bringing the best back to our patients. 💪

What a year it’s been.

My first year running my own pelvic health physio practice from 1:1 physio and Pilates with amazing clients including Glamorgan Cricket, to speaking at the first Women’s Running Conference in Wales, and graduating from Brunel with my postgrad diploma in pelvic health.

Feeling so lucky to have had such a great start and excited to keep growing and building from here 💪💜

Happy birthday to me! 🎉

A few of the moves from a 1:1 Pilates session this week 💪✨

Roll ups with the ball for control and flow, and some spicy side-lying glute work for balance and strength.

Simple doesn’t mean easy, your body will definitely feel these!

A little bit of some of this mornings 1:1 class.

Start with the basic movement with good form then layer up.

Not rushing through the movement is key.

Good form and remaining mindful, good for the brain and the body.

Have a go…

See that ball try to sneak away from me?

I would be really interested to get my knee MRI’d again…ruptured ACL and MCL in April 2023. No surgery.

Did loads of rehab and actually started playing football for the first time 6 months later.

No issues. I’m actually unsure which knee it was sometimes.

Not convinced surgery is always the answer even for those wanting to return to competitive sport….

Healed ACL 💥
Great post by .sportsphysio:

"Another great result for our client, who initially tore her ACL playing soccer - felt a pop, knee gave way, and MRI confirmed a full rupture. She was told by a specialist she’d never return to sport without a reconstruction.

Instead, we followed a 12-week weight-bearing bracing protocol (BLEX) with a knee extension block, alongside progressive strength, balance, and control training.

12-week MRI result: “Healing of the anterior cruciate with normally aligned ligament fibres (ACLOAS grade 1)”

✅ Pivot shift = negative
✅ Lachman Test = negative

A stable, healed ACL - no surgery required."
If you want to learn about conservative ACL treatment, make sure to watch both lectures by Kieran Richardson at 😊👍
