Mummy MOT®
Specialist postnatal assessment and recovery support
Pregnancy and birth place enormous demands on the body, yet many women receive very little guidance about how to recover afterwards.
A Mummy MOT® is a specialist postnatal assessment designed to help you better understand how your body is recovering after pregnancy and birth. Whether you are experiencing pelvic floor symptoms, abdominal weakness, C-section scar issues, pain, or simply don’t feel quite yourself, support is available.
Tanya’s approach combines over 20 years of physiotherapy experience with advanced hands-on treatment, visceral assessment, and nervous-system-informed care to provide a more complete understanding of postnatal recovery.
Alongside assessing posture, movement, abdominal and pelvic floor function, Tanya is also trained to assess how pregnancy and birth may have affected the position and mobility of the internal organs and surrounding tissues — something that can contribute to ongoing discomfort, tension, or feelings of disconnection within the body.
With additional training in Somatic Experiencing, Tanya is also able to recognise and gently support the effects of birth trauma and nervous system overwhelm where appropriate, creating a calm and supportive space for recovery.
Your Mummy MOT® may include:
-
abdominal and pelvic floor assessment
-
postural and movement assessment
-
C-section scar assessment and therapy
-
visceral assessment
-
rehabilitation and exercise guidance
-
breathing and core support
-
hands-on treatment and recovery support
Some women leave feeling reassured with simple advice and exercises to continue independently. Others may benefit from ongoing treatment and support, particularly where there has been significant physical change, persistent symptoms, birth trauma, or longer-standing recovery difficulties.
The goal is not simply to “check” your body, but to help you feel more informed, supported, and confident in your recovery moving forward
