Dr. Bala R.
Pelvic Obstetric/Gynaecological PT
Dr. Bala has 7 years of experience specialising in the care of women recovering from childbirth and the conservative management of pelvic floor muscle issues.
She has worked predominantly in the Apollo Hospital, India and enjoys being part of a supportive multidisciplinary team.
Early on in her career, she realised her passion for pelvic health physiotherapy and subsequently completed her Post Graduate Diploma in women’s health physiotherapy. She is State Registered HCPC UK, and she is proud to be a full member of the Pelvic Obstetric and Gynaecological Physiotherapy (the professional membership organisation leading excellence in pelvic health physiotherapy) affiliated to the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists.
She counts it a real privilege to help women improve or recover from conditions which, because of their sensitive nature, women can’t always discuss with others. However, because she provides a safe space where she listens with a keen empathetic ear, her female clients always feel their condition has been understood. A tailored treatment and rehabilitation plan is then presented that suits each client’s lifestyle to start them on their journey to recovery. Every client receives support at every step of their journey, be it with email support or a quick call in between your appointments.
Our treatment is not just for a body part – we look at your life as a whole and the science behind how the whole picture contributes to your overall hormone health.
At RVC Women’s Wellness, Your Pelvic Health is Our Top Priority.
Our Vision
To focus on the most important component in therapy, YOU, the patient. We aim to empower women to maintain and improve their pelvic health during childbirth, menopause and beyond.
Our Mission
To provide uncompromising quality service through individually designed programmes to ensure that each woman has the tools she needs to maintain and improve her pelvic health and receives the information she needs to pursue the therapeutic treatment options that are best for her; while providing an environment that stimulates health, happiness, and education not only for our clients, but also for our employees.
