About the Mummy MOT® at GW Osteopathy
The Mummy MOT® is a comprehensive postnatal health assessment designed for women following both vaginal and C-section deliveries. Pregnancy and childbirth place significant demands on the female body, often leading to postural shifts, abdominal separation (diastasis recti), and pelvic floor dysfunction. Whether you gave birth six weeks ago or six years ago, this specialised check-up evaluates how your body is recovering and provides a clear pathway back to full strength and confidence.
Led by certified Mummy MOT® practitioner Zaneta Kwiecien, the assessment looks at your body as an interconnected system. Zaneta evaluates your posture, functional movement, lower back and hip alignment, abdominal muscle separation, breathing mechanics, and ribcage mobility.
As part of the consultation—and only with your explicit consent—a gentle internal pelvic floor examination can be performed. This allows us to assess muscle tone, strength, endurance, and coordinate how well the pelvic floor contracts and relaxes. From there, a bespoke treatment and rehabilitation programme is designed around your personal goals, whether that means lifting your baby pain-free, managing bladder urgency, or returning to local running groups across Surrey.
