Pre/Post Natal Treatments
Our pre and post-natal treatments combine Osteopathy, Paediatric Osteopathy and Acupuncture, Pre & Post Natal Massage, Craniosacral and Myofascial therapy to support bones and ligaments in the period, in which hormone level in the body is vastly increased.
Mummy MOT® is a specialist postnatal examination for women following both vaginal and caesarean deliveries.
ScarWork for Caesarean section scar is used to improve feeling and functionality in the scar and surrounding tissues, creating better movement between the layers of skin, fascia (connective tissue) and muscle.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage is a massage therapy specifically tailored for the expectant mum’s needs. It has been found to encourage relaxation, reduce stress and relieve aches and pains in muscles and joints. This massage will also help to decrease any swelling in the arms and legs by increasing blood and lymph circulation, and is recommended after the first trimester.

ScarWork Therapy for Caesarean Section Scar
ScarWork Therapy is a specialised manual treatment to help patients with scar tissue, fibrosis, adhesions and changes in tissue health following surgery and radiotherapy. It is used to improve feeling and functionality in the scar and surrounding tissues, creating better movement between the layers of the skin, fascia (connective tissue) and muscle.
Scars often appear smaller, flatter, lighter and less prominent but the emphasis is on the underlying tissue changes. As the dense scar tissue reduces and the tissue health recovers, nerve impairment such as numbness, pain, itching, irritation or extreme sensitivity often improves.

Mummy MOT®
with Karly Proverbs (Most, PgCert SPOP, DO, DN)
A Mummy MOT® is a specialist postnatal examination for women following both vaginal and caesarean deliveries.
After pregnancy, up to half of mothers’ experience weakness in their abdominal and pelvic floor muscles and up to a third still have a tummy gap after eight weeks. This can lead to women developing pelvic pain or back pain, problems with their bladder or bowel and/or sexual dysfunction. These conditions are not something you should simply live with because you have had a baby.
It is recommended that women have an initial assessment after their 8-week GP check, but Mummy MOT practitioners also treat women who gave birth years ago.
As a Mummy MOT practitioner, Karly is fully trained and licensed to carry out a Mummy MOT®. Mums lead active lives and need to bend, squat, lift and carry! As part of the Mummy MOT® Karly provides individually tailored postnatal care and functional exercises.
A Mummy MOT 1st consultation includes
· A full postural screen
· Pelvic floor muscle assessment
· Abdominal muscle exam to check for any separation
· Screening for bladder, bowel or sexual dysfunction
Follow up treatment includes
· Education and advice on activities such as lifting your baby or pushing a buggy.
· A bespoke rehabilitation programme with your goals and lifestyle factors in mind.
· A written report of the findings of your assessment.
What to expect
An initial assessment may last up to 75 minutes. Karly will take a thorough case history which involves listening to your experience and any concerns in detail, taking your relevant medical history (including any current medication), followed by a physical examination. An explanation of Karly’s findings and number of further appointments needed will always be discussed.
Treatment Options
Following the initial Mummy MOT consultation, treatment will be tailored to the individual and may include:
· The provision of pelvic floor exercises and deep abdominal strengthening to assist in graded retraining of the pelvic floor muscles and abdominals
· Internal and external manual therapy techniques to relax the pelvic floor muscles including stretching and release techniques
· Osteopathic manual therapy of the surrounding muscles and joints
· Scar massage
· Relaxation and breathing techniques
· Support and advice on returning to exercise postnatally
