A Mummy MOT® is a specialist postnatal assessment designed to support your recovery after pregnancy and childbirth.
Pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood place huge demands on the body, and many women are left unsure about how to safely return to exercise, manage symptoms, or reconnect with their body again after having a baby.
A Mummy MOT® is an opportunity to better understand what your body needs during this stage of recovery. The session looks at how your body is moving and functioning after birth, and can help identify issues such as abdominal separation, pelvic floor dysfunction, prolapse symptoms, back or pelvic pain, weakness, or ongoing discomfort.
At Body Alliance, we take a holistic and personalised approach to postnatal rehabilitation. Our aim is to help women feel supported, informed, and confident in returning to movement and exercise at their own pace.
What to expect during the session
Your assessment may include:
– Postural and movement assessment
– Assessment of abdominal wall function and diastasis recti
– Pelvic floor assessment (optional and always with consent)
– Breathing and pressure management assessment
– Guidance on returning to exercise postpartum
– Personalised rehabilitation and exercise recommendations
Who is it for?
Mummy MOT® assessments can be beneficial for women experiencing:
– Pelvic floor symptoms
– Core weakness or abdominal separation
– Back, pelvic, or hip pain
– Prolapse symptoms
– Difficulty returning to exercise postpartum
– Or simply wanting reassurance and guidance after birth
Whether you are recently postpartum or several years after having children, a Mummy MOT® can help you better understand your body and support your recovery journey.
