About The Healthy Peach Physio
The Healthy Peach Physio is a Brisbane-based pelvic health physiotherapy clinic, home to a team of eight specialised physiotherapists. Founded by Marnie Poiner—Physiotherapist and Psychosexual Therapist—the clinic takes a holistic, individualised approach focussing on education, empowerment, and personalised care.
We support women through every life stage—from menarche, through pregnancy and postpartum, and well beyond; Treating a wide range of pelvic health concerns including bladder/bowel dysfunction, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain, and sexual function concerns.
During pregnancy, we work closely with you to help prepare your body for birth. If you’re planning a vaginal birth, assessing pelvic floor function, muscle range of motion, and the effectiveness of your pushing technique—tailored to suit whichever birth position you prefer. Sessions will educate you on each stage of labour, equipping you with practical strategies to navigate the physical and emotional ups and downs. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions about your birthing journey.
If you’re planning a belly-birth or still deciding, we’ll also walk you through what to expect, how to prepare, and what recovery may look like post-abdominal surgery. No matter how your baby enters the world, we’ll help you understand what’s normal during recovery and when to seek support—so you can feel informed, safe, and cared for.
We also help manage the many physical changes that can arise during pregnancy, including bladder or bowel issues, constipation, vaginal heaviness, varicosities, and pelvic girdle or lower back pain.
Postpartum, we encourage you to visit us for both abdominal and pelvic floor assessments. Abdominal checks can take place as soon as you’re comfortable leaving the house, while pelvic floor assessments are typically recommended around six weeks postpartum. However, if you’re experiencing concerns earlier, it’s important to seek support sooner.
We also offer treatment for lactating breast conditions, including the management of blocked ducts, engorgement, and mastitis. These conditions can be painful and distressing and may impact your feeding journey. Our physiotherapists provide hands-on care and guidance to relieve symptoms, support healing, and help you continue breastfeeding comfortably and confidently.
As you consider returning to physical activity, we’ll guide you through a safe and progressive plan tailored to your body’s healing process and your personal goals.
At The Healthy Peach Physio, we’re committed to helping you feel confident, informed, and in control of your pelvic health—whatever chapter of life you’re in.

Newborn Home Care
Newborn Home Care is a home-based and Zoom online nursing and lactation service providing parents with guidance and support to welcome a new baby. We can help you to settle into life with your new little one and feel confident with how to feed and care for him in ways that help him be content. An International Board Certified Lactation Consultant is available, offering the latest evidence-based support to help with any breastfeeding or lactation concerns.
Our expertise is in caring for newborn babies in the early months, including multiple births and those born prematurely or with complex medical needs. We have gentle, well researched and science-based strategies to help you with your baby’s breast or bottle feeding, their crying, settling and sleep. The support we provide works alongside your parenting values and in sync with your baby’s biology to help you manage the challenges that families commonly encounter with a new baby in the home.
Newborn Home Care offers a range of support services that are grounded in the latest research in infant management, known as Neuro- Protective Developmental Care (NDC), or the Possums approach. This approach is gentle and simple, yet revolutionary, cutting through old and conflicting advice about how to care for babies, to instead work holistically with your baby’s natural biology.
At Newborn Home Care we understand that there are times when adjusting to life with a new baby can be a bit of a struggle, particularly if there were difficulties encountered with baby’s birth, his health, or with breastfeeding. We also know that sometimes mothers themselves have complications that interrupt the straightforward path that was anticipated, leaving them feeling less than strong after the birth. In circumstances like this – and sometimes for no reason at all – the early weeks and first few months, can bring some unexpected challenges that may cause you to reach out for help with looking after your baby. Don’t feel you can’t pick up the phone and talk to Julie about your circumstances. Our initial conversation is free.
Blossom Doula Care
Hi my name is Janine. I’ve been so lucky to work with many mums, dads, babies and their families over the past 30 years as a registered nurse specialising in obstetrics and as a trained mentor, birth and postpartum doula, educator and mum of 3. I’m truly passionate about supporting families as they grow and transition into their wonderful fourth trimester and settle into life as parents and as a new family. It’s a joy to see parents grow in confidence and enjoy this precious time surrounded by love, nourishment, nurturing care, practical help, and a kind guiding hand to support them. Caring for the new and healing mum is so important as she is able to rest and get to know her little one.
It’s a privilege to be part of this wonderful journey with them all.
