I know how much pain can get in the way of you enjoying your life and your family, but how it can often feel impossible to make time to look after yourself. I understand how daunting it can seem to have a birth or recovery ahead of you when you are feeling weak and in pain. I love working with women of all ages, but I particularly enjoy helping women during and after pregnancy to feel strong, capable and pain free.
I am a mum of three boys and know first-hand how physical this mum gig can be and how important it is to be on top of our game.

I want to be on your team; to understand your goals and to empower you to get the results you want.

I started seeing Libby for treatment to relive back pain from pregnancy and birth, however she offers so much more than Physio (which is amazing). With Reformer Pilates also on offer and a fantastic online system for me to continue treatment in my own home, Libby creates a supportive community for the women she sees and a whole set of treatment on offer. I was also surprised to learn that she offers Physio treatment for mamas at home - what an awesome idea! Thanks Libby.

I've been seeing Libby at GLOW Physio for the past 6 months and can highly recommend her service. I've had persistent lower back problems since having children. For the first time in 5 years I'm finally returning to normal life without constant back pain. Libby is down to earth and offers real solutions for busy working mums like myself. The small group classes are also great as she personalises your exercises and targets problem areas. A great service offered.

Libby is so passionate about her business of physiotherapy and pilates. I hurt my back last year from exercising and went to see Libby when I could barely move without being in excruciating pain, and her approach and manner and knowledge and care instantly made me feel at ease, I knew I was in the best of hands and I was back to normal in no time.
She also specialises in pregnant and new mums. Tell her about a concern you have exercising whilst pregnant or a pain you're experiencing since being pregnant and she doesn't just give a standard response - she listens very carefully to what you tell

Thanks Libby for always coming to the rescue. Never realised being a mum would be so physical from lifting newborns to toddlers out of cots, breastfeeding not always in the right position and so much more. You have helped with pain but also recovery strategies and exercise to avoid it happening again. Really appreciate it.

Libby first treated me for an extremely painful hip injury sustained soon after giving birth. Her in-clinic treatment is hands-on and thorough, and the follow-up exercises prescribed are simple and specific enough that I actually did them! Six months on she is now treating me for a shoulder injury I'd been ignoring for years. Libby always spends a full hour with me, assessing my condition, massaging sore areas, guiding me through exercises and even offering to follow up with my PT. She really does go the extra mile and knows her stuff, too.

I highly recommend Glow Physio! I saw the lovely Libby a few weeks after giving birth to my first child as I had a few concerns post pregnancy (stomach muscle separation /diastasis recti and lower back pain). She visited me at my home and made me feel very comfortable as she assessed me. Libby explained exactly what my injuries were in detail and gave me specific exercises in a personalised program to assist with my rehabilitation. My son is now 10 months old and I am now doing a private personalised Pilates class run by her once a week with 4 of my girlfriends. I can honestly say after doing the

Absolutely love Glow Physio! I started pilates with the Glow team when I was a few months pregnant. I loved the personalised programs and with weekly sessions I felt really strong throughout my whole pregnancy. They are extremely professional in what they do and always go over and above in the service they offer. The convenience of having them mobile is fantastic and I feel really comfortable with them coming to my home for treatment.

Glow Physio give excellent service and are brilliant physiotherapists. They are reliable and friendly and I'd highly recommend them. I have gone from having constant headaches (neck issues) and an almost "frozen" shoulder which ached all the time, to being pain free and exercising regularly after treatments with Libby O'Sullivan from Glow Physio - and did I mention all in the convenince and comfort of my own home!
