Kate Charlesworth
Therapies:
I trained as a physiotherapist in 1986.
When I returned to work after
having my four children I started working and specialising in the area
of women's health.
I have attended specialist training courses and been involved in training local health care professionals in various aspects of women's health. My work involves treating women with antenatal and postnatal back and pelvis pain, helping women regain muscle control post childbirth and treating women with continence problems.
1 in 3 women suffer from some degree of embarrassing and undignified incontinence and for the vast majority of them help is available in the form of advice and exercises.
A bit of hard work can restore dignity and control for women and that's what I love about the job. I see women referred to me by health visiters, midwives and other health professionals.
I work closely with the continence advisors in Bath, the Institute of Psychosexual Nurses, local midwives and health visiters. My aim is for my approach to be thorough, compassionate, fun and accessible to peoplein their busy daily lives.
