Jodie is a clinical specialist physiotherapist in pelvic health. She graduated from Leeds with a first class Physiotherapy BSC degree in 2003, and went on to complete a post graduate diploma in rehabilitation in Bradford in 2012 (all modules were focused on pelvic health). She began her career in Calderdale rotating through all areas of physiotherapy before taking a pelvic health post in Leeds in 2006.

 Jodie brings 18 years of experience of improving the lives of women living with sensitive issues such as pain, prolapse, urinary leakage, bowel leakage and sexual dysfunction. She understands the impact of these issues on everyday life, confidence and relationships. She believes in empowering women to live the life they want to lead with education, reassurance and support. All sensitive conversations are open and non judgemental.

Jodie also works for the Pelvic Health Academy in a training, mentorship and development role. She is a keen educator and has been involved in educating others on a local and international level. Her training has included Midwives, GP’s, Physiotherapists, Consultants and Registrars in all aspects of pelvic health. She has been key in contributing to NHS post natal bladder and perineal pathways alongside patient education and information provision. In her most recent NHS clinical specialist post , she was lead clinician for gynaecology and education.

Jodie keeps herself up to date with the latest evidence based research and coupling this with her vast experience allows her to empower women, health professionals and the general public to raise the profile of pelvic health.

Jodie is a firm believer in the positive mental health value of exercise: Keeping people exercising through all challenges without compromising their physical body.

A background of competitive swimming as a child and young adult, gave Jodie a can do attitude and discipline.
