Mummy and Baby

Mummy MOT

The Mummy MOT is a detailed postnatal assessment for the mother, ideally after her routine 6–8 week check. It includes an assessment of pelvic-floor function, abdominal separation, posture and movement, the musculoskeletal system, and recovery after pregnancy and birth. An internal pelvic-floor examination may be offered where appropriate, but only with the patient’s consent. The appointment also includes a personalised rehabilitation programme.

The standard Mummy MOT appointment is assessment only and does not include hands-on treatment. Patients who would like treatment during the same visit should choose “Mummy MOT & 1st Treatment”. Dedicated C-section appointments include scar assessment and recovery guidance; hands-on scar therapy is included only in “C-section Mummy MOT & 1st Treatment”.

Mum and Baby Initial Consultation - £150 / 1h20m

This is an initial consultation for postpartum mums and babies under 6 months old. Please book under
mother’s name.

Please be advised that this is not the full Mummy MOT. If you require an internal pelvic floor examination
or specialist c-section scar therapy, then please book the longer “Mummy MOT” appointment.

This is a combined appointment to follow-up mum and baby together. Please note, this appointment is only for those patients who have already had a Mum and Baby Initial Consultation with us.

If you’re recovering from birth and keen for an assessment before returning to exercise or unsure how to
get your strength back, then this appointment is for you. Ideally, you’ll wait until you’ve had your 6-8 week
check, the appointment includes:

  • In depth check of pelvic floor strength and tummy gap (rectus diastasis)
  • Assessment of any physical problems arising from pregnancy and birth
  • Review of your musculoskeletal system
  • A bespoke exercise recovery program
  • Generalised aches and pains Lumbago

Please Note – Hands-on treatment is not included in this appointment

If you have aches or pains and would like treatment at the same time as the assessment, please choose the longer appointment – “Mummy MOT + Treatment”.

You’re very welcome of course to bring along your baby but we have a fixed time allocated so the assessment may need to be shortened if your baby needs changing, feeding etc

Mum & Baby Appointments

A Mum & Baby appointment is different from a full Mummy MOT. It allows time to assess both mother and baby and, where appropriate, provide treatment within one visit. The initial appointment is for postpartum mothers and babies under six months old and should be booked under the mother’s name. It does not include an internal pelvic-floor examination or specialist C-section scar therapy. Baby-only initial and follow-up appointments are also available.

These services do not replace postnatal medical, midwifery, pelvic-health or paediatric care. If symptoms require another healthcare professional, we will explain this and recommend the appropriate next step.

Please choose the appointment type carefully when booking, as assessment-only and assessment-plus-treatment options have different durations and fees.

Mummy MOT and 1st Treatment - £120 / 1h20m

This appointment differs to the Mummy MOT in that it is a longer appointment and includes hands-on treatment based on the findings.

It includes a comprehensive postnatal assessment, bespoke to your needs. Areas of assessment include:

  • Review of your Musculoskeletal System
