Hello. I am a physiotherapist who specialises in helping women find and train their pelvic floor muscles. I have been working in this field of physiotherapy for over 20 years.
I qualified in 1993 from Addenbrookes Hospital School of Physiotherapy, Cambridge, later gaining a Masters Degree, from The University of Cambridge, in Community & Public Health.
My NHS years were at St. George’s Hospital London & Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. In the middle I spent 4 quite different years working at Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town.
I have post-graduate qualifications to qualify for Full Membership of the Professional Network of Pelvic, Obstetric & Gynaecological Physiotherapy (POGP) and have published several papers.
At South Cambridge Physiotherapy, I work individually with women to improve symptoms of incontinence, prolapse, bowel issues and vaginal or pelvic pain.
At clinic I offer proper vaginal examination of the pelvic floor & comprehensive assessments of the full body, advise on the use of neuromuscular stimulation & biofeedback, exercise & holistic treatment programmes. We have equipment you can try and borrow.
Mummy MOT is a one hour assessment for a mum whether 6 weeks of 6 years postnatal. We check your tummy gap, pelvic floor and give you advice on how to take your exercise to the next stage.
PhysioPilates Academy started in 2002. We run 14 classes with 5 teachers across 3 venues.
Some of our customers have been coming to Pilates since the beginning and we have followed them through several pregnancies!

Though I grew up in Sussex, I actually consider myself half South African, after living there for 4 years and bringing a really rather nice one home to marry.
We live near Cambridge with our son, some chickens and a glamorous, but not very useful, Flat Coat Retriever called Tilly. She easily won the family photo competition to feature here.
