Here at All For One we believe that getting back into movement after birth is really important for recovery, but we also know that doing this with a new baby comes with some challenges.
We launched our Mums and Bubs postnatal exercise classes to address the barrier of not being able to attend exercise sessions with bub. Here, they can join in on the fun! It’s also a great opportunity to socialise with other new Mums in the Yarraville area.
Classes focus on gently getting you back into movement, with the goal of exercising every part of your body each class using a combination of body weight, light weights and Pilates equipment.
Our class sizes are limited to six Mums so we can get to know you and bub, and are run by a Physiotherapist (who also doesn’t mind a cuddle if bub is particularly restless!).
Prior to your first class, you will have an assessment with a Physiotherapist. We will discuss relevant details of your birth and any questions you have, as well as assess any injuries, pain or dysfunction you are currently experiencing. We will also talk about pelvic floor function, as well as look at your abdominal muscles to see if you have any separation, so that this information can be taken into account when you’re doing the classes.
Each exercise in these classes has progressions and regressions to allow for differing levels of fitness, stomach separation and pelvic floor dysfunction to a limited extent. You will be directed by the Physiotherapist regarding which progression is the most appropriate for you.
If you are experiencing significant pain, pelvic floor dysfunction or other concerns, it may be recommended that you try our clinical exercise classes, in which you will receive an individualised program to more safely meet your health goals.
Experts in their field, specialists in holistic health
Richard Scott Principal Physiotherapist / Director
Nadine Scott Guest Host / Director
Principal Physiotherapist and Founder, Richard Scott created All for One Studios with the mission to deliver holistic, evidence-based care for people, to provide them with optimal lifelong outcomes.
After graduating from Charles Sturt University Richard first worked in the CBD of Melbourne, getting in depth experience working with office workers, lawyers, desk jockeys of all varieties and treating an abundance of back and neck pain. It was here that his interest for holistic care was born as he discovered the lifestyle factors of his patients were typically working long hours, highly stressed and not able to maintain a healthy work- life balance.
After years had passed working in this role, Richard decided to find a new challenge and moved on to work under a Titled Sports Physiotherapist. Richard further grew his skills and knowledge in the field. He was able to treat a vast range of sports injuries, as well as work with elite sports teams and treat anyone from athletes to the weekend warriors.
After many years observing the delivery of healthcare, Richard grew unfulfilled and was certain there had to be a more effective way for people to live pain-free and achieve lifelong results. This frustration ignited his commitment to develop All for One. All for One is founded upon the basis that physical health and mental health go hand in hand and we cannot have one without the other.
Richard’s expertise and passion lies in treating chronic pain, spinal pain and sports injuries.
In his down time Richard enjoys spending time with his loved ones and Moodle Yogi, keeping his energy and health up by keeping active, being amongst the great outdoors and watching his beloved Magpies in AFL. Richard loves travelling and having been to almost 50 countries, you can always count on him to share a story or two!
