Body and Birth Physiotherapy

About

Body and Birth is a unique Women's Health Physiotherapy practice that is focused on increasing the awareness of pelvic health and preventing or resolving pelvic floor dysfunction for all women. We take a whole body approach to assessment and treatment, and believe in long term results.

Our passion is to provide women with the knowledge and tools they need to help prevent and resolve common pelvic floor and pregnancy-related conditions. Prior to becoming pregnant learning about your alignment, how to stand, walk, squat and move more naturally can help you prepare your body for pregnancy and birth. This will also lead to improved pelvic floor and core function postpartum.

Some of the services we offer include:

- Private hour-long Consultations for thorough, personalised assessment and treatments

These consults can be provided in our studio, at your home (great for during baby's nap time!) and even online via Skype or FaceTime.

- Pre and Post Natal Educational Classes in a group setting

These practical classes detail common pregnancy-related conditions, alignment, natural movement and squatting, active birthing positions, and post-natal care and exercises (with minimal overlap of the classes offered in most hospitals!).

- Natural Movement and Restorative Exercise Classes

Check the website for our timetable

- Free community classes are also held once per month for anyone interested in learning what it is all about!
