Melissa (Mel) Layton

Whether it be during pregnancy, following the birth of your little one, or later in life as you go through menopause, I am eager to keep you living an active lifestyle and one in which your pelvic floor health does not limit you. 

During my years as a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist, I have seen patients give up the things they love most, such as running, HIIT classes, or even having a coffee in public due to fear of accidental urine or faecal loss. I understand the embarrassment and discomfort that comes with incontinence and prolapse issues, and the social isolation that often occurs as a result of this.

As a Women’s Health & Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist, I am passionate about working with my patients to overcome these hurdles so that they can live their best life possible.

I strive to provide care that is empathetic towards your concerns, as well as flexible and tailored towards your personal goals.
