"Postpartum care"

About: Physiotherapy / Physiotherapy Pelvic Health Team

(as the patient),

I had a baby with forceps delivery and managed to get an appointment with the pelvic health team 8 weeks post delivery. My appointment with was Erin and her student Kiera, both of whom were friendly, professional and immediately put me at ease. I have learned so much from our appointments together, that I am now confident about my postpartum pelvic recovery. I am a lot more informed now, and I owe Erin a lot for the time and effort she’s put in to help me. I was shocked at how little I knew about how to help myself, when it came to pelvic floor health and recovery post birth. Their service is invaluable and I hope every woman or person post delivery gets to benefit from their wisdom.

Dear velaqy53,

Thankyou for taking the time to send in this compliment highlighting the professionalism of the staff and the care and information you received. I am delighted to hear that you have found the service invaluable and are making great progress in your journey to recovery.

The postnatal period can be very stressful and tiring and many women struggle to find time to work on their recovery. I am delighted that you were able to avail of physiotherapy and have fond it so beneficial.

I will ensure that I pass this on to both Erin and Ciara.

Thank you.
