Post-Pilates for Mums in Heaton Moor ✨
Movement, recovery, connection — all in one place.

My postnatal Pilates classes run every Wednesday in Heaton Moor, with two time options:
🕥 10:30am
🕐 1:00pm

You’re always welcome to bring your baby — they can lie beside you on your mat, so there’s no barrier to rebuilding strength, confidence, and routine after birth.

These sessions are physio-led, designed to support safe postnatal recovery, and I share practical tips throughout to help you understand your body again — from core and pelvic floor awareness to easing aches and reconnecting with yourself.

After class, stay for a cuppa and a chat with other mums. Community matters just as much as movement. ☕💛

Pay-as-you-go or class passes available.
Book via my website or drop me a DM to save your spot.

Menopause doesn’t just affect hormones — it changes how your muscles, joints, bones and pelvic floor behave.

Oestrogen decline can lead to stiffness, weakness, and pelvic symptoms - but your body can adapt with the right movement, strength work and recovery.

These 7 tips are simple, physio-informed ways to support your body through change — from building muscle and bone density to improving sleep, balance, and pelvic health.

Small, consistent actions make a real difference.
For individual assessment and guidance, book a Menopausal Matters MOT Appointment at maternitytomenopause.com.

So many women accept bladder leaks as “just part of being a mum and a woman.”
But leaking isn’t something you have to live with — it’s a sign your pelvic floor and pressure systems need support.

With the right assessment, you can restore strength, improve coordination, and move confidently again.
Whether it’s a cough, a run, or a laugh — you deserve to feel in control.

👩‍⚕️ Physiotherapy can help identify what your body actually needs — not just generic exercises.

Menopausal Matters MOT

We know that joint aches, muscular pain and tendon discomfort are really common during menopause — sometimes referred to as musculoskeletal syndrome of the menopause.

At the same time, most women want to move. You know exercise is good for your body, your bones, your mood — but pain or pelvic health symptoms can sometimes hold you back from doing the things you enjoy.

That’s where the Menopause Matters MOT can really help.

It’s a one-to-one physiotherapy assessment designed to look at how your body is moving right now and give you a tailored exercise programme to support your goals.

A 1-hour assessment

INCLUDES:

Full postural screen.
Pelvic floor muscle assessment.
Muscle strength assessment
Balance/ co ordination assessment
Screening for bladder, bowel or sexual dysfunction.
Education and advice related to your specific signs and symptoms
Bespoke rehabilitation programme with your goals and lifestyle factors in mind.

The aim?
To get you feeling confident, capable, and back to doing the activities you love.

October is Menopause Awareness Month

Menopause can feel overwhelming, but small consistent actions make the biggest difference:
Move your body daily — even gently.
Stay hydrated.
Prioritise rest.
Nourish your body.
Seek support, not silence.

At Maternity to Menopause, I combine physiotherapy, education, and compassionate guidance to help women thrive, not just survive, this stage.

If you are struggling with pain, pelvic floor issues, knowing what exercise to do, or looking for advice then book a Menopausal Matters MOT or a 1 hour physio session.

Hip and pelvic pain are common in mums of toddlers — but they’re not inevitable.
Habitual one-sided carrying, muscle imbalance, and reduced core support can lead to ongoing discomfort.

As physiotherapists, we assess:

Pelvic and spinal movement and function
Hip and glute muscle activation
Movement patterns and load transfer

Treatment focuses on, improving strength, and reducing strain through tailored exercise and manual therapy where needed.

It’s okay to ask for help. You don’t have to live with discomfort -support is here when you’re ready. I offer physiotherapy in Heaton Mersey Stockport SK4

In my nine years as a Mummy MOT practitioner, I’ve learned a lot -from listening to women’s stories, supporting their recoveries, and navigating those big “Is this normal?” questions.

Here are 9 things I want every woman to know:
1️⃣ Leaking is common, but not something you have to live with.
2️⃣ You deserve to exercise without fear.
3️⃣ A tummy gap is not a sign your body is broken.
4️⃣ Pain with sex is not normal - and there’s help for it.
5️⃣ You can ask any question, no matter how small it feels.
6️⃣ Your pelvic floor matters at every stage of life, not just after birth.
7️⃣ Postnatal recovery doesn’t have an expiry date.
8️⃣ Being strong is about more than just your core.
9️⃣ You’re never alone — there’s support for you.
