Commencing 5th June 2021 I will be seeing clients for pelvic health consults in Alice Springs. I’ve had a small break from pelvic health and am really excited to get back to trying to solve some of the big issues below the belt!

Wow! What a year 2019 has been. For me it has certainly been a busy one. Once we speed up often it can take some time to slow the momentum and slow down.

Thus commencedContinue reading “Men’s health physiotherapy”

As a young physiotherapist I knew right from the beginning I wanted to become a women’s health physio. I have always been intensely passionate about women’s access to healthcare and felt that this little known corner of physiotherapy would suit me well.  Sometimes I found it difficult to work out what was next in termsContinue reading “So you’re interested in pelvic health?”

Bladder urgency and frequency is a common problem. Sometimes it’s paired with urinary incontinence but often it’s just that feeling of ‘I’ve got to go right now!’. Women will often report that they are going to the toilet ten or more times per day and often they see that as being just a normal thingContinue reading “When you’ve got to get to the toilet RIGHT NOW”
