Very happy with my first visit here today. Was recommended by a consultant at the Royal Women’s, booked in for a pregnancy massage with Myotherapist Stef. The whole experience was great! Stef explained the process thoroughly so I knew how the treatment worked. She set me up beautifully with props on the heated massage table so I was very supported and comfortable. She checked in constantly throughout to check the pressure and temperature was to my liking. I will definitely be going back!

Brilliant women's health physiotherapy practice in Keilor East. I went here based on the excellent reviews,professional and thorough website and was not disappointed. My physiotherapist Jane has been phenomenal throughout my pregnancy with her calm, efficient, professional, reassuring, and evidence-based approach. I highly recommend Jane if you are seeking a women's health physiotherapist pre/post-natal. I also highly recommend the prenatal exercises classes here which both Jane and Julie lead and which have really supported my strength, function and mobility during pregnancy. The massage therapist

Easy to find, plenty of on-street parking. Reasonably priced. Saw a Physio called Kate who was very thorough and asked questions to ensure she had a complete picture of my issue. Kate took care to ensure I was comfortable and explained everything clearly. Clean and organised reception and rooms. Would recommend.

So thankful for the treatment I’ve received after experiencing a prolapse. I’ve gone from feeling heartbroken and ashamed to healthy and happy again. Many thanks to Jane for her calm, practical and reassuring attitude that helped me feel better right away. All the practitioners I have seen have been excellent and so knowledgeable- I have so much respect for their work healing women. Have recommended to everyone in my mothers group!

I just wanted to say an enormous THANK YOU!
After years and years of women issues and being in constant pain I was recommended to see a Pelvic Physio.
When I was referred to you I had no idea what to expect. I was lucky enough to get treated by Bec and Karina and I will be forever grateful.
Yes, I had to stop exercise for 4 months and go through a lot of pain to get the amazing results I have now. I am now able to exercise PAIN FREE!
I appreciate all of the extra support and guidance you have given me to get me back to being healthy, pain free and happy.
Thank you ladies for everything! I

I saw Dr O'Sullivan last week. I was stressing a little as I thought I has a major case of DRAM but she was so good. She assessed me, my body, checked to see if I was in tune with my pelvic floor and then reassured me I had nothing to worry about. She then suggested a tubie grip could help me with supporting my ever growing belly and lower lumber and its the best money spent! it was only $15 for the grip and I wont be without it. She didn't force me back into another unnecessary session either. Thank You!!!
