Imagine feeling confident again. Worry and embarrassment FREE!
No more anxiety over leaks and wondering where the next toilet is. Imagine moving freely, lifting and jumping on the bouncy castle with the kids even followed by laughter!
Sighhhhhhh
If you let out that sigh after reading the above then it’s likely that something isn’t quite right down there and Pelvic Floor Reconnect is exactly what you’re looking for!
“Gemma and I met after I’d undergone bladder surgery following complications having my two children. My pelvic floor was completely shot. All throughout my time with Gemma, I found her extremely knowledgeable and she completely understood the symptoms I had been displaying. Her knowledge and training is without a doubt invaluable and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She actually cares about you. Overall wonderful person”
Jen, Mum of three
Pelvic Floor Reconnect is for you if:
You can’t run, do crossfit or other activities you love for fear of wetting yourself and embarrassment
You are done with feeling anxious, old, frustrated, insecure and simply want your confidence & self esteem back
You need to reduce symptoms of prolapse or someone to work alongside your healthcare provider to reduce the risk of re-prolapsing
You feel heaviness, bulging or pressure in your pelvis
You leak when sneezing, coughing, laughing, jumping, exercising and lifting heavy like your own child
You want to enjoy your day without having to map out your toilet stops
You want to be active with your children and be their role model for wellness in the future
You suddenly feel the urge to go to the toilet but simply cannot hold it
You, if you’re ready to focus and dedicate a few minutes of your day to YOU!
If I told you that you have some control, that there’s another option besides “living with it” or surgery. That YOU CAN do something to help heal yourself. What would you say? Would you want to know more?
Hi, I’m Gemma
I took my pelvic floor healing into my own hands when squeezing and releasing at traffic lights and advert breaks just wasn’t cutting the mustard. I was fed up with making excuses to my kids and just looking on as the rest of the family had fun at the park or bounced with uncontrollable giggles at the trampoline centre.
It is lonely, it makes you feel old and worn out and not exactly desirable to hubbie either. I wasn’t going to settle for that. Getting back to my pre-baby fitness was also difficult when jumping and lifting weights became an issue.
So, I started using all my postnatal knowledge and I delved into the world of pelvic floor. I now trust my pelvic floor, I am proud that I have come through that part of my life, and l love being able to move with my kids unabashed, developing a movement rich lifestyle I hope they will take into adulthood. I have long since shared my knowledge with members of the fire brigade as being too weak to lift or move quickly is not an option for them.
Now I want to share my knowledge with you, guide you through the process and join a community of like-minded people so you no longer feel on your own.
How Does Pelvic Floor Reconnect Work?
Pelvic Floor Reconnect is a recovery program. It’s also a journey of discovery about your body (I should call it the discovery recovery program).
This is a whole-body approach. Although, we discuss how to do isolated pelvic floor exercises (kegels) it is a very small part of the story and for some kegels may not play a part at all! WOW, that’s different, right?
Remember that song “Heads, shoulders, knees and toes” your kids love it. But we look at all of these body parts & how they can improve pelvic floor function.
The philosophy of Pelvic Floor Reconnect really hones in on how our daily habits contribute to pain and dysfunction especially in western society. It is thought that ¾ of women can be helped with simple techniques including moving more and that there is a direct link between urinary incontinence and sitting too long. A habit that many of us are guilty of.
The sequence of movements are tried and tested, so there is no guess work on your part
We discover what muscles need strengthening, who needs relaxing and where we can rebalanced
ALERT, by doing this course it is likely that you will:
No longer have to worry where the next toilet is – because you can hold it
No more pads (goodbye tena lady)
Even banish pain elsewhere in your body
Your insides are no longer HEAVY
No panics over sneezing, coughing, laughing or just bending
Get back to the fun of life – gym, crossfit, running, seeing friends, trying new things!
Play unashamedly with your children
Sound good?

FAQ’S
How is this course delivered?
This course is online. You will receive full support from Gemma through a private / closed facebook support group. Only women are in this group. This support is there for you no matter how long you take to complete the course.
How much time do I need to complete the course?
How much is Pelvic Floor Reconnect?
The full cost of the course is £127. However, early birds who sign up in the first 2 days of cart opening will only pay £97 and receive the extra “Daily Life” module – how cool is that?!
Can I pay in instalments?
How long are the videos?
How long should I spend on each exercise?
What do I need to wear to do the exercises?
This also goes for support bras or sports bras, sometimes these can restrict your breathing as they do not allow the ribcage to move. So, aim for something that feel comfortable but not restrictive.
What footwear should I wear?
What equipment will I need?
When can I start my course?
You can start the course as soon as you sign up. However, there will be an official start date when the group starts together. This will be detailed in the information provided to you. It is normally 1-2 weeks after cart closing which gives you time to prepare and identify times when you will watch the videos. You will also need to have completed the online health questionnaire. If you are newly postnatal you will need to have had your postnatal health check with your GP (normally 6-8 weeks for vaginal delivery or 12 weeks for C-Section).
Can anyone do the course?
You cannot do this course if you are pregnant. Other than that as long as you complete the health questionnaire which will be sent to you after sign up and you have had a 6 week postnatal check (12 weeks for caesarean section) you are good to go.
What if I want to cancel my course?
What's expected of you
• Do the movements in sequence. There are big reasons why this program has been put together how it is. And that’s to get the best results possible.
• Do the Work. Do the Work. Do the work. That doesn’t sound very supportive does it? But what I’m trying to say is that you need to give yourself permission to take out a few minutes of your day for YOUR self-care. Caring for yourself and making sure you are tiptop means that when you go back to your family, they get the best of you and that is the most fantastic gift you can give.
• Oh and did I say do the work? – if you only get down and do this once a month. You will not get results. The exercises are designed so you can do them whilst doing other things like brushing your teeth, washing up, even rocking the baby so it doesn’t have to mean taking 30 mins out of your day.
• If you have any questions regarding Pelvic Floor Reconnect then please feel free to use the contact me form which you can find in the contact me section or go to the FAQ section where your question may already be answered.
Can I spare the time?
But in our experience, to care for others, you need to care for yourself. And who has time for Hospital appointments, surgery and standing back in the wings – let’s swap that out!
You need to feel good. Because that goodness, that vibrancy is contagious. Your kids will look at you and think wow that’s my fun mum, she’s crazy, she plays, she moves, she’s strong, she IS Mum!
What support do I get?
During this time I will be prompting you, asking questions, and generally turning up for you. After this 14 week period I will still be there to help you but only if you ask a specific question. So I guess you could say for 14 weeks I will be pro-active and reactive thereafter.
