Step 1 · History
What has happened, and what hurts.
Four services, all inside a scope we state openly.
Screening exists to catch the things that should not be trained around. Chest pain on exertion, unexplained breathlessness, dizziness, unexplained weight loss, pain with no clear cause, a difficult relationship with food: these go to a doctor, not into a programme. Most people screen clear and we start. Some do not, and saying so is the most useful thing we do.
What has happened, and what hurts.
Red flags looked for deliberately.
Start, adapt, or refer first.
Built on what you can tolerate.
What you tolerate right now.
Patterns before weight.
Progressed in small steps.
Reassessed, not assumed.
Progression is built from where you actually are, not from where a twelve-week template says week one should be. That means the first sessions often look conservative, and it is the reason people stay rather than getting injured in a fortnight and stopping. We also coach technique before adding load, because load on a poor pattern just embeds it.
We work during pregnancy only with your midwife or GP on board, and we do not start postnatal training before your postnatal check. Where there are signs of pelvic floor dysfunction or abdominal separation that needs assessing, that is a referral to a pelvic health physiotherapist — a protected title and a clinical assessment, neither of which is ours to provide.
Midwife or GP agreement first.
To the stage and the symptoms.
Pelvic health to a physio.
Gradually, after the check.
What you actually eat and when.
Few, and sustainable.
Eating enough to recover.
To a dietitian where clinical.
This is general, food-based and practical: what to buy, how to put a meal together on a bad week, how to eat enough around training. It is not dietetic treatment of a diagnosed condition, which is clinical work for an HCPC-registered dietitian. We do not sell supplements, we do not prescribe therapeutic diets, and we make no claim a regulator would not accept.
