Amy O'Mara - Physiotherapist

Amy is a highly empathetic and approachable physiotherapist with over 20 years of experience. As the co-founder of Secret Women’s Business Physiotherapy, she brings extensive expertise in women’s health, lower back and pelvic pain, and exercise physiology. Amy takes a holistic and compassionate approach to care, ensuring every patient feels supported and understood.

Her career began in the public health sector, where she gained a strong foundation in physiotherapy before transitioning to private practice to refine her musculoskeletal skills. It was during this time that she developed a deep interest and curiosity in women’s health.

Since 2010, Amy has dedicated herself to individualised women’s health physiotherapy, through the creation of Secret Women’s Business Physiotherapy in
Menai to provide focussed care for Women.

Amy’s expertise spans a wide range of women’s health conditions, including pelvic pain, painful intercourse, sexual health concerns, pelvic girdle pain, urinary and faecal urgency and incontinence, recurrent UTIs, bladder and bowel dysfunction, prolapse management, and pessary fitting. She is passionate about supporting women at every stage of life, including but not limited to, pregnancy and postnatal care, peri- and postmenopause.

Beyond her professional life, Amy values balance and cherishes quality time with her husband and three children. She enjoys baking and decorating cakes and cookies for loved ones, watching the latest movies, and socialising with friends.

Amy looks forward to partnering with you on your journey to achieve your optimal pelvic health, empowering you to live your best life with compassionate and personalised care.
