Menopause MOT

Perimenopause and menopause mark an important transition in a womanā€™s life. Menopause brings changes that can affect your pelvic floor, bladder and bowel functions, bone health, sleep quality, mood and overall well-being. Our Menopause MOT is designed for any woman who is perimenopausal or postmenopausal, regardless of whether you are experiencing symptoms or simply want to check on your overall health. We will discuss any current symptoms, concerns and goals you have, discuss medical history and pelvic health history, and current activity levels. The assessment will look at your posture, breathing and functional movement, and core and pelvic floor muscle strength. Following your appointment, we will create a treatment programme designed to address any current issues you experience and work towards your goals.
