about us
"I'm passionate about helping others"
Rosie Conway
Director & Clinical Specialist
I am extremely enthusiastic about my chosen specialism and enjoy treating and helping patients achieve their goals . Pelvic floor symptoms are often not spoken about; they remain a ‘taboo’ health issue even though we know of the huge impact that these symptoms can have on quality of life!
On average, it can take up to five years for someone experiencing pelvic floor symptoms to seek help – that is such a long time to suffer in silence! Pelvic health physiotherapy is more than just my 9-5 job, it is my absolute passion! I strive to help my patients take their confidence back, gain control and overcome their symptoms.
