Yolanda Royan Pardo

Musculoskeletal & Women's Health Physiotherapist

Ever since I was little, I have been passionate about the human body and helping others, so I chose to study physiotherapy because I wanted a profession where I could do just that. I completed my degree in physiotherapy in 2006 and occupational therapy in 2009 at the University of Vic, Barcelona, and achieved a postgraduate degree in pelvic floor rehabilitation and Hypopressive Technique from Gimbernat University in Barcelona, 2015. I worked in the National Health Service and in private practice in Spain for 9 years before moving to the UK.

My interest in the pelvic floor came when I first became a physical therapist. I myself had suffered from pelvic dysfunctions since adolescence, living with them in silence as I believed them to be normal. As I later discovered, there was a solution and I did not need to endure them any longer, and neither did anyone else.

With my experience in physiotherapy practice and extensive postgraduate training in women’s health, I have built a strong specialist knowledge across pelvic floor rehabilitation, incontinence and prolapse, pelvic pain, pelvic girdle pain (PGP), symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD), and lower back pain during pregnancy. My UK postgraduate qualifications include Pelvic Health Physiotherapy, Pregnancy-Related Physiotherapy, Female Urinary Dysfunction, Pelvic Organ Prolapse Management, Lower Bowel Dysfunction, Complex Female Pelvic Pain, and Advanced Pregnancy Wellness. I also specialise in abdominal reconditioning, diastasis recti, and sexual dysfunctions, and I am a Registered Mummy MOT® Practitioner.

I am dedicated to the re-education of the pelvic floor, abdomen, and posture using manual therapies with a holistic vision of the body. By taking into account the history that accompanies each patient, as well as their emotional, social, and environmental factors, we are able to better understand what is happening at a physiological level and provide the most effective treatment.

Alongside my main areas of interest, and due to the varied conditions I have encountered in private practice in London, I am also able to provide treatment for chronic lower back pain, post-surgery rehabilitation, neck and shoulder pain, and sports injuries. I am fully trained in APPI Clinical Pilates Levels 1 and 2 and Visceral Mobilisation and Release, both of which I integrate into my therapeutic approach.

Through preventative or therapeutic sessions, I accompany you on the path to a better quality of life. The pelvis is one of the entrance doors of the Earth’s energy – a creative and experiential motor that is a source of joy when it is well, and of unhappiness when it is not cared for.

I love learning, and with every training course I complete I am compelled to do another. My training has taught me the importance of integrating this area, which is so often seen as isolated and independent, with the whole of the body, both in knowledge and in treatment. I continue to believe there is more to be learnt about the pelvic floor, and I endeavour to keep expanding my knowledge, because the deeper my understanding, the greater my ability to help others.
