Success Story
"I had been living with vaginismus for most of my adult life. As I entered my 30’s and a long-term relationship, I sought help but was basically given the brush off by medical professionals or told that it could only be solved with talking therapies. I found Erin online after I searched for other ways to deal with vaginismus and found women on forums discussing their success with pelvic therapy treatments.
It’s obviously an intimate form of therapy and Erin’s professionalism and respect of my personal and pain boundaries meant that I trusted her very quickly. Erin is calm, kind, non-judgemental and knowledgeable. She always talks through the process, offers possible explanations as to why I may be having a particular reaction and always pauses when needed. We've dealt with my pain and insertion issues bit by bit, in small incremental stages and this, alongside dilation “homework”, led to real tangible results very quickly.
The pelvic therapy was done alongside talking therapy with an independent counsellor and Erin’s Psychosexual Somatics Therapy sessions. This holistic approach appears to have worked incredibly well and has had such a positive impact on me – I’m learning to connect my mind and body together and not live in my head all the time!
Hearing Erin say “there are physical tools and practical things we can do to solve this” was empowering. In just under two years, I’ve gone from excruciating vaginal and pelvic pain when attempting any form of penetration, to beginning to have penetrative sex successfully (and happily!) with my husband. I honestly can’t rate her work high enough – it’s been life changing for me!"

Women’s Helath Physiotherapy Review
"I signed up to physiotherapy with Erin after my surgery for endometriosis to help with pain management and complications. I had never had physiotherapy before so, when searching for practitioners, having someone who was a specialist in women's health felt important. Coming to Erin with a history of a chronic condition she was empathetic and understanding about my circumstances, and conscious of what I had already tried in terms of pain management. I have enjoyed the range of different techniques we have tried and I have seen significant improvements in my pelvic floor health and pain management. Erin is easy to talk to and makes sure to explain exercises/techniques in detail which has helped me understand my anatomy better. If you are recovering from surgery or dealing with a chronic condition and want a well-rounded and holistic approach, I would greatly recommend Erin!"
