Question 1

Where are you based?

Accepted Answer

My clinic is in House Seven in Tynemouth near the golf course, not too far outside of Newcastle on the North East coast. The full address will be sent in your booking confirmation.

Question 2

Is there parking?

Accepted Answer

There is lots of free on street parking outside the clinic.

Question 3

Can I still come if I am on my period?

Accepted Answer

You can absolutely still come to physiotherapy if you are on your period. If you feel comfortable we can still continue with any internal assessment or treatment, or if you feel more comfortable we can wait and use the session for all the other treatment options within physiotherapy. The internal aspect of pelvic health physiotherapy is a very small part.

Question 4

Do I need a referral?

Accepted Answer

No, the joy of private physiotherapy is that the only person that matters in your appointment is you. You will never need a referral to see me, and if we feel it is useful I am able to refer you to other healthcare professionals too.

Question 5

How long are appointments?

Accepted Answer

All of my appointments are an hour to ensure that your sessions never feel rushed, and that we have enough time to help you feel confident with what you are doing outside of clinic.

Question 6

Do you accept health insurance?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately I am not able to accept any health insurance. All appointments require pre payment, and a receipt can be provided for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement if you are on a cash plan.

Question 7

What can you help with?

Accepted Answer

As a specialist pelvic health physiotherapist I can help you with any of the challenges you may be facing with your pelvis. I also believe that the pelvis is affected by the whole body and will assess your biomechanics through a whole body lens. That being said, I am not a specialist in backs, necks, or joints in the limbs of the body, so if you need help with one of those then it is likely better to see a musculoskeletal physiotherapist.

Question 8

How much does an appointment cost?

Accepted Answer

All appointments cost £145 and last for one hour.
