Women's Health at City Road Physio

Starting in November 2011, we are launching a women's health physiotherapy service at City Road Physio.

This will include:

Antenatal Course
This will be a 4 week course. The course will be run by a chartered physiotherapist with Pilates training and an interest in womens health. Class size will be limited to 4 participants.

The format will be:

  ~ A 15 minute discussion on a pregnancy topic, to include the pelvic floor, body changes in      pregnancy, preparation for labour together with any specific requests from the group

  ~ 30 minutes of antenatal Pilates

  ~ 5 minutes available for questions
Total time 50 minutes.

The cost will be £80 for the course. 

We will ask you to fill out a screening questionnaire, and we recommend starting the course between 12 and 30 weeks into your pregnancy. We also ask that you check with your doctor that you are safe to start gentle exercise, as some pregnancies carry greater risks than others.

Antenatal/ Postnatal Pilates

Group sessions will be of 45 minutes duration. The instructor is a chartered physiotherapist with a special interest in Women's Health. Class size will be limited to 4 participants. We recommend a 30 minute one to one session before commencing the class, depending on previous Pilates experience. We will ask you to complete a screening questionnaire.

Cost will be £17.50 per group session, or £15.50 per session if booked as a block of 6.

One to one sessions will cost £52 per hour or £31 per half hour.

Continence service

Assessments and treatments will be carried out by a chartered physiotherapist with a special interest in Women's Health. The cost will be the same as for musculoskeletal physiotherapy: ie £67 for first appointment of 45 minutes, with £45 for follow up appointments of 30 minutes. Please ask for the women's health physiotherapist when booking.

Musculoskeletal Pain in Pregnancy and Post-Partum

We have a wealth of experience in the treatment of these kinds of conditions at city road. Cost will be the same as for the continence service above. Be sure to ask for a physiotherapist with an interest in pregnancy when booking.
