What is women's health Osteopathy?
​
Women's health osteopathy addresses many of the common issues women face throughout their reproductive life and beyond. This gentle, but effective treatment manages the changes brought about through pregnancy and the post natal period, as well as other gynaecological issues, from general pelvic pain, continence concerns, prolapses, constipation and bowel disfunction. Gayle is also a National Childbirth Trust trained breastfeeding peer support volunteer, who works with parents at Southampton Baby Cafe and the Princess Anne Hospital.

This is what our patients say
"I was diagnosed with endometriosis in my early twenties and I also suffer from IBS.
I had seen several posts from Gayle regarding women's health and started following and reading her updates. One that particular interested me was regarding pelvic health, which is so important for women, so I contacted Gayle who was extremely helpful and informative. I had an internal pelvic assessment, followed by treatment on some trigger points that Gayle found, the treatment was not painful and Gayle made me feel completely relaxed the whole time. I was also given guidance on pelvic floor exercises. The difference after one treatment was extremely noticeable.
I can highly recommend Gayle. Women's health is so important and it is great to find an advocate who is so passionate about promoting this for women."
