Natal Physiotherapy
Natal Physiotherapy
Kathryn has completed extensive further education in a highly specialised area of physiotherapy, female pelvic health/Women’s health. She spends 1 day per week working in Cardiff’s leading Women’s health physiotherapy clinic, working alongside Wales’s leading physiotherapists in the field. Pelvic health dysfunction is much more common that you would think and there is a great need to expand further services throughout Wales. Kathryn has started this expansion by bringing a natal service to her Bridgend Clinic. Please see below for all of the natal services Kathryn offers.
If you are suffering from pelvic health dysfunction or pain that is not related to a current or previous pregnancy please get in touch with Kathryn to help you decide the best course of action for you needs. In some cases this may include a referral to the Cardiff clinic until additional pelvic health services are started in Bridgend.
