Enliven Health Women’s Health Physiotherapy and Reformer Pilates studio

After the birth of my second child I came to Alex for the Mummy MOT and am now continuing with regular sessions to address my specific issues. Alex is friendly, very professional and knowledgeable, and obviously enjoys what she does tremendously! She listens really attentively, and provides a series of recommended exercises and stretches all of which can be accessed on a handy site from home. If you're looking for someone who understands pregnancy and post natal issues, and has the knowledge and expertise to do something about them, then look no further!

Been a client of Alex and Enliven Health for a good few years now. Aged 63 former chronic back problems man. I have been pain free since doing an hour a week and adding strength to my core. It should be compulsory!Alex is a trained physio and is passionate about how Pilates fits into overall health. She specializes in womens health but has made my feel welcome and I cannot recommend her classes highly enough.They have changed my life. Thanks Alex xx

I would thoroughly recommend Enliven Health to anyone thinking of booking Physiotherapy for back pain or joining one of Alex's Pilates classes. Alex has a very friendly but professional manner and you feel like she really is interested in your progress and well being. I can honestly say I look forward to Pilates classes and am so glad to have found her.

I am so pleased to have found Alex and would not hesitate to recommend her, and Enliven Health, to anyone. Alex takes the time to listen to problems and makes you feel confident that she will do her utmost to help solve them. Her Pilates classes are a pleasure to attend, well thought out and tailored to the individual. The hour flies by!

I cannot recommend Alex enough, I have been suffering disc issues in my lower back for almost three years and was beginning to lose hope. I have been seeing Alex for a few months now for clinical pilates and physiotherapy and the results have been amazing. When I started seeing her I could barely walk for 15 minutes without being in pain, now I am almost back to my former active self. I have seen many physios in the last few years and Alex is by far the best. She listens to everything you say and she adjusts the treatment plan based on how you are on the day. I improve every time I see Alex and the exercise plan she has given me to follow at home is great. If you are suffering from lower back issues, definitely go and see Alex!

After having back problems for over a decade and seeing many different physios, chiropractors and other specialists I was sent to a pain management residential programme where it was recommended I do APPI Pilates! Luckily for me there was Alex just down the road from me as this is a specialist area. I had an initial consultation which was so relaxed even though in a very anxious person. Alex was so friendly and warm. I now attended weekly Pilates classes to try and strengthen my core. My 13 year old daughter has the exact same problems as me and a few more so I took her to see Alex. My daughter felt at ease and now joins me at the classes. It's such a small group that Alex can check us all individually to make sure we are all doing it right. I can highly recommend Enliven Health and Alex.

What a wonderful find! This is a gorgeous centre, beautifully appointed, and Alex is a true professional. She fitted me in for my assessment at short notice and used every second (as I could only manage a short appointment), giving me clear, constructive advice and practical suggestions. I have now begun having scar tissue massage (after three breast cancer operations) with Lorraine and it is Really helping! I am surprised and delighted with the progress after only one session: smoothing out little bumps and knotty areas so that the scar is flatter and more comfortable and breaking down the hard areas in my actual breast so gently that it’s hard to believe it will work - yet it Is working really well! Alex and Lorraine are both lovely, friendly, efficient, kind and caring and very good at what they do. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Alex has fantastic knowledge of what is required to rehabilitate post childbirth 'wear and tear' and offers excellent support and gives personalised plans. The classes are relaxing, easy to keep up with and at such convenient times. In herself, Alex is professional and friendly and so approachable. I'll keep coming back! I just feel so much better for attending. Totally and wholeheartedly recommend

I've been seeing Alex for a few years and I can only say I wish I found her sooner. I was lucky enough to find Alex pre surgery for Endometriosis. She helped down regulate my system and help me get to a place where surgery would be most beneficial. She also supported me post surgery and once we felt my body was ready, I started Reformers Pilates. I love the classes, my body composition has completely changed and my pain is much more manageable. I can't thank Alex enough for everything she's done.

I’ve been doing Pilates at Enliven for a year and it’s been life-changing for me. I have had back surgery, ongoing disc issues and advanced OA in one knee, so keeping mobile and pain-free was a daily challenge. From my first visit, Alex was compassionate, knowledgeable and supportive, and that’s continued at every stage of my journey. She’s a consummate professional and a lovely person. The classes are wonderful and not intimidating, and if you need physio attention, you’re taken well care of. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. I can’t recommend Enliven highly enough.
