The Mummy MOT

A Mummy MOT is a specialist postnatal examination for women following both vaginal and C-section deliveries. It will assess how your posture, pelvic floor muscles and stomach muscles are recovering after childbirth. Miriam will provide you with gentle exercises and treatment to help with your recovery – and get you back on track with your fitness goals. 

Specialist Physiotherapy: 

As a specialist Physiotherapist Miriam is fully trained and licensed to carry out a Mummy MOT^®. Mums need to bend, squat and lift so we provide clinical postnatal care and functional exercises for our clients following birth (no matter how long ago).

What does a one hour initial assessment include:

• Full postural screen.
• Pelvic floor muscle assessment.
• Abdominal muscle exam to check for any separation.
• Screening for bladder, bowel or sexual dysfunction.

What may be included in follow up:

• Education and advice on safe activities such as lifting your baby or pushing a buggy.
• Bespoke rehabilitation programme with your goals and lifestyle factors in mind.
• Written report on the findings of your assessment.

What Miriam says:

“ I am so pleased to be able to offer The Mummy MOT at MUMS Solihull because I have seen first hand how much it can help with the initial stages of recovery after having a baby. Having had two children of my own with a two-year gap between them I am very aware of the physical demands of being a mum. To be able to offer a service in which I can holistically assess new mums and support them in their journey back to fitness or just give them the confidence to be able to keep up with the daily routine of mum life makes a real difference. Whilst it is essential that babies receive a thorough post-natal check, mums often miss out so we are here to make sure that is not the case.”
