Holora Health ✻ Featured package

Our flagship postnatal recovery package

The complete window of postnatal care, from your first assessment through to flexible follow ups that fit your goals.

Featured package

Postnatal/Mummy MOT Recovery Package

An initial assessment plus 3 follow up sessions (worth £306).

We start with a thorough postnatal assessment, looking at your pelvic floor, any tummy gap, your posture, your breathing and how your core is managing everyday load. We'll also talk about your goals, whether that's getting back to running, lifting your kids without worrying, or simply sneezing with confidence. You'll leave with a clear plan you can actually use, not a leaflet.

Your follow ups are flexible, so you can use them in whatever mix suits your body and your goals:

  • Scar therapy for hands on scar care
  • Pelvic floor rehab to reassess and progress your plan
  • 1:1 strength sessions to build strength and confidence towards your goals
  • Counselling (November) — open to everyone, with our counsellor specialising in perinatal mental health, for emotional support and mental wellbeing

Not sure which you'll need yet? That's completely fine. We'll decide together after your MOT.

You won't need to repeat your story. Our team talk to each other, so whoever you see for your follow ups will already know your history, your goals and your plan. You just turn up and pick up where you left off.

Follow up sessions are 45 to 50 minutes each and should be used within 6 months of your MOT. If you'd like a chat before booking, you can book a free 15 minute navigation call first.

"I booked an initial consultation with Katie having experienced hip/pelvic pain since having my daughter. I had been putting up with it but decided enough was enough! I instantly felt at ease with Katie and found her to be kind and very thorough. This was great as I felt like she really cared about what I was telling her and she was keen to get the treatment plan right for me. I came away with exercises tailored for me and felt positive for moving forward with them, knowing I could reach out if I had any questions. Thank you again Katie"

"I have recently started Emily's small group coaching and it's brilliant! I feel I can completely trust her to support me to push myself without injury. The small group is supportive, friendly & fun — highly recommend to any woman looking to improve strength in a non intimidating environment."

"I approached Emily after lifting weights for a year — the heavier I lifted, the more issues I experienced. Emily truly listened and tailored a plan to my needs. I've now achieved a new PR without a second thought to the symptoms I previously experienced."

"I am so glad I saw a flyer for Emily's pelvic health clinic. She has helped me understand what my body needs — and spoiler alert, it is not more Kegel exercises. Emily adopts a holistic approach and is kind, caring and enthusiastic."

"I spent a fun and informative evening with like minded women at a talk called Fannies and Flapjacks. Emily was kind, caring and knowledgeable. As a 55 year old post menopausal lady having just gone through treatment for stage 1 breast cancer, it was beneficial."

"Have just finished a course of 2 c section scar massages and have felt such an improvement with the way my scar feels and my confidence with self massage. Emily is so knowledgeable and warm, which allowed me to relax fully. As a Mum this time with Emily felt so luxurious and special."

Emily

"I went to see Emily after my c section to support me with scar massage and to check all was healing well. Emily was so knowledgeable and kind, putting me at ease straight away. She gave me practical advice to help build my confidence with scar massage and provided all the details via email in an easy to understand PDF. Whilst discussing my postpartum journey, Emily assessed my posture and mobility and gave me clear next steps and activities to complete at home. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!"

Questions we hear often

If yours isn't here, just ask us — nothing is too awkward.

Ask us anything

It's incredibly common — but 'common' doesn't mean 'normal' or something you have to put up with. Stress incontinence affects around 1 in 3 women, yet over half never seek help. With the right assessment and a tailored plan, most people see significant improvement. You don't have to cross your legs every time you sneeze.
