Hi, I'm Vicki Hill
A Bristol-based Women’s Health & Fitness Trainer specialising in supporting women from pregnancy & postnatal through to the menopause
Helping YOU feel better about yourself
My clients come to me for a variety of reasons. Some are post natal and want to know how to get back to exercise safely after having children. Many who come to see me are in the menopausal transition and aren't sure what to do.
Some just need some motivation and want to get their mojo back with exercise.
Many women I see are struggling with specific women's health issues - a pelvic organ prolapse, a diastasis recti, post hysterectomy rehab or the menopause.
I have specialised in pelvic health, specifically hypopressives and restoring the core.
I work with women to understand what they can do to support their prolapse or pelvic floor issues.
They all have one thing in common: they want to be sure they’re doing the right exercises for them & their stage of life.
I’ve always loved and competed in sports. I was a competitive rower and a marathon runner.
Working in women's health is my passion and I have found my true calling. I am dedicated to helping women look after themselves and am never prouder than when I get a ‘thank you’ from someone I have really helped. For me it is not all about weight-loss, there is so much more than that, it is about educating women to look at the whole picture - to feel healthy, strong and happy.
My aim when working with someone is to see them only for the length of time they need. It is about helping them to get confident to exercise, to know what to do and to exercise independently.
Specialist help for women's health in Bristol
It’s so important to me that I get the right information out to women to make them feel better about themselves.
I’m privileged to have a wide network of contacts who I can refer my clients onto for specialist help: Nutritionists Anita Beardsley - who specialises in womens health, Women’s Health Physios Helen Hodder, Womens Health Osteopaths Juliana Hounsfield or Musco-skeletal Physio specialist Sarah Bryan.
Let me help you fall back in love with yourself
As for me, I’m a qualified personal trainer & a Level 1 & 2, Hypropressives instructor. I have qualifications in Meno Strength, (menopause), Pre & Post natal qualifications. I was a Holistic Core Restore coach for 10 years and a member of the British Menopause Society.
I offer a wide range of fitness, rehab, hypopressives and assessment sessions for individuals and groups.
I help women to learn to do the right exercises at the right time for their body.
I work out of the Bishopston/Horfield area of Bristol.
I take a holistic approach. This means I focus not only on exercise. The whole organic self-care focus is also about nourishment, stress, hormones, breathwork & pelvic floor health.
All of these things work towards promoting healing. Ultimately it is about YOU.
It may take some time: I’m not into quick fixes that might cause damage to your body. For me, it’s about doing things the right way, mending and building strength from within.
