Birth preparation and pelvic health workshops

Our Flourish Workshops are online pelvic floor courses and small-group sessions covering pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, men’s pelvic health and return to exercise — created by a pelvic health physiotherapist in Albany.

Evidence-based sessions built around the same stages of life we treat every day in the clinic. Pre-recorded online workshops launching 2026, with small-group in-person sessions in Albany from October 2026.

At Flourish Health Clinic, we believe education empowers people to understand their bodies, make informed decisions and feel confident throughout every stage of life.

Our workshops have been developed by a Pelvic Health & Continence Physiotherapist to provide practical, evidence-based education that bridges the gap between healthcare appointments and everyday life. Whether you’re preparing for birth, recovering after having a baby, returning to exercise, or navigating prostate surgery and recovery, our workshops are designed to help you feel informed, supported and empowered.

Our signature Birth & Fourth Trimester Workshop combines three comprehensive education sessions into one practical and interactive experience.

Designed for expecting and new mums, this workshop provides evidence-based education to help you prepare for birth, recover well after having your baby, and safely return to exercise.

Small group sizes allow plenty of time for discussion, questions and personalised guidance in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Online Workshops

(Coming 2026)

We understand that attending an in-person workshop isn’t always possible.

For many people living throughout regional and rural Western Australia, accessing pelvic health education can be challenging due to distance, travel, work commitments and limited availability of specialised clinicians.

To improve access, Flourish Workshops will soon be available as flexible, pre-recorded online education programs that you can complete at your own pace from the comfort of home.
