🌸 Big news for women’s health! 🌸

NHS Health Checks for over-40s will include menopause questions — helping more women get the support they need sooner.

👉 What does this change mean?

It means menopause is finally being recognised as an important part of women’s health — not something to be ignored or endured. These checks will open up earlier conversations, better awareness, and faster access to support.

If menopause changes are affecting your bladder, bowel or pelvic comfort, a pelvic health physio can help. 💪

As a pelvic health physiotherapist and PhD researcher in menopause health, I’m passionate about helping women move, feel, and live well through every stage. 💜

Is your core not feeling quite right after pregnancy (or surgery)? It might not just be “weak abs” — it could be a lingering case of diastasis recti (a loss of tension in the linea alba within the abdominal wall).

In our latest blog post, we dive into how physiotherapy + reformer Pilates can help restore tension, strength, and coordination through your core — safely and meaningfully.

You’ll learn:
• Why the function of your core matters more than how your tummy looks
• How breathing, pelvic floor work & precise load management re-train your body
• What a recovery plan might look like (and when “progress” is more than skin-deep)

👉 Read the full article: https://www.orchardviewphysio.co.uk/post/diastasisrectirehab

Today is World Menopause Day 💜

This year’s theme is Lifestyle Medicine — highlighting how movement, nutrition, sleep, and emotional wellbeing can transform the menopause experience.

Menopause is a natural life stage, but it can bring real changes — from pelvic floor symptoms and bladder leaks to joint pain, sleep disruption, and fatigue. These are common, but not things you have to put up with.

👩‍⚕️ As pelvic health physiotherapists, we support women through this transition by helping to:

✨ Strengthen and protect the pelvic floor
✨ Improve confidence in exercise and daily movement
✨ Manage bladder and bowel symptoms
✨ Support recovery of energy and body confidence

Lifestyle medicine isn’t about quick fixes — it’s about giving your body the right support for long-term health.

💬 If you’d like to feel stronger, move better, and take control of your pelvic health, we’re here to help.

Menopause affects pelvic health, bones, joints, and muscles, but small lifestyle changes can make a real difference.

💪 Regular exercise, strength training,
🥣 healthy nutrition,
