Women’s Health Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy helps restore function when you are affected by injury, illness or disability, through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice.
It’s a science-based treatment that takes a ‘whole person’ approach to health and wellbeing, which includes your general lifestyle. At the core is your involvement, through education, awareness, empowerment and participation in the treatment.
Naomi specialises in women’s health with focus on the following:
Antenatal and Postnatal Women
Our bodies are amazing, however creating another life puts an significant strain on a woman’s system. These pressures may present differently in different woman and may include:
- Incontinence
- Pelvic Girdle pain
- Low back pain
- Carpel Tunnel
- Diastasis Recti (Tummy Gap)
- Prolapse
- C-Section Scar Tissue
- Vaginal birth tear
Pelvic Health
We all have a pelvic floor, a unit of supportive core muscles which support the pelvic organs. The pelvic floor is required to relax as well as contract to provide the support your body requires. When these muscles are underactive or overactive it can present with the following symptoms
- Incontinence
- Extreme urgency and frequency to get to a toilet
- Feeling like you don’t fully empty your bladder
- Heaviness, dragging or bulging sensation from the vagina
- Painful sex
- Pelvic girdle and low back pain
- Many of these symptoms are “common” but not “normal”.
Menopause
This is phase in a woman’s life that is rarely discussed. despite this, many women will experience significant uncomfortable and unsettling physical symptoms which may last for many years. These physical symptoms may include:
- Incontinence
- Pelvic girdle pain
- Prolapse
- Joint pains
- Constipation
- Vaginal pain
With the right support, education and treatment many of these symptoms can be alleviated.

Join us on Friday as we talk with Alma Vignal about her intriguing upcoming sessions.
Trusting the Inner Guide: The Story of Vasilisa 'The Doll in Your Pocket'
As women we call upon our intuition and instincts in order to sniff things out. We use all our senses to wring the truth from things, to extract nourishment from our own ideas, to see what there is to see, to know what there is to know. (Clarissa Pinkola Estés)
Guided by the timeless folk tale of Vasilisa— a powerful story about learning to trust ones inner voice— and inspired by Clarissa Pinkola Estés’ rich exploration of the tale in her book Women Who Run with the Wolves.
An intimate 3-hour antenatal workshop held at Moon Women’s Health for pregnant women. This workshop is an opportunity to explore your intuition— the quiet, steady inner knowing that guides us through life’s thresholds.

Happy Mother's Day! 💛
We’re sharing something very close to our hearts today. We're fundraising to keep the doors of our local New Mama & Parent Drop-In open for the next three months — and we need the community's help.
Since June 2024, Moon Community Health's free Drop-In has welcomed over 500 local parents and babies. Every session brings together six health specialists under one roof — breastfeeding support, women's health physio, sleep consultancy, emotional health, baby-wearing, weaning and more.
No appointment. No waiting list. No cost.
Support that would cost hundreds of pounds privately — free to every family that needs it. 💙
We're hoping to raise £2,100 to fund the next three sessions (April–June 2026). Each session costs £700 to run and we have no ongoing government funding — so every pound genuinely makes a difference.
If you can spare anything at all, please donate via the link in our bio to our Crowdfunding page.
And if you can't donate right now, simply sharing this with someone who might is just as valuable.
Thank you so much. 🙏
