WOMENS HEALTH

Roisin, Caoimhe, and Lauren are our women’s health physiotherapists here at Reform Physiotherapy. Roisin has been working and studying in this field for several years and see’s women for pelvic health related queries such as prolapse, bladder incontinence, pregnancy and postpartum assessments. Caoimhe and Lauren are both qualified to assess and treat pelvic health related issues such as incontinence, and pre and post partum assessment.

The goal is to get you back feeling strong and confident through your pelvic floor and provide a personalised plan tailored to you and your specific concern.

Women’s health concerns can affect you at any stage through your life. If you are concerned or curious about your pelvic health or any of the above queries, contact us to book an appointment.

As this is a specialised area, please request to see Roisin or Caoimhe when you are booking with us.

See below for a list of some of the issues that we treat in the clinic.

Roisin qualified with an honours degree in Physiotherapy from Trinity College Dublin in 2016. Since then she has worked at Reform where she has progressed on her skill set and become more specialised.

Roisin made a decision early on in her career to specialise in Women’s Health Physiotherapy. It was an area she felt needed to be advocated for at the time, and one that she felt was an important addition to the clinic. She has completed many post graduate course in pre/post natal Physiotherapy, urinary incontinence and prolapse.

Roisin’s other area of interest is running injuries. As a keen runner herself, Roisin understand the impact it can have on helping to keep you fit and active and keep those stress levels down.

Caoimhe completed a BSc in Molecular Medicine in Trinity College Dublin before graduating with a first-class honours MSc in Physiotherapy from the University of Limerick.
She has experience treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and has a special interest in Women’s Health Physiotherapy. Caoimhe is passionate about helping women stay active, confident, and pain free at all stages of life.

Her approach is centred on evidence based assessment and treatment, with a strong emphasis on education and empowering each individual to take control of their health.
What I like most about Physiotherapy

I enjoy building strong relationships with my patients and supporting them through each stage of their recovery. I particularly value helping people return to the activities that are important to them, whether that’s exercise, sport, or day-to-day life.

I love empowering women with the knowledge and confidence to manage their health and wellbeing long term.

What I do in my spare time
Outside of work, I’m kept busy with my young daughter and crazy dog! I enjoy travelling and spending quality time with family and friends. I’m also a big believer in the benefits of fresh air and love getting outdoors and keeping active.
