Your body should not be something you have to work around.
SOMA is for women who know something needs to change. Maybe you're tired of chasing the right treatment for persistent pain, frustrated by how your body feels, or lacking confidence in how you move.
My coaching looks at the body as an interconnected system, not a collection of isolated parts. I don’t hand out generic, cookie-cutter exercise checklists for specific symptoms. Instead, I specialize in helping women identify the unique root cause of their movement restrictions, rebuilding a resilient foundation across three critical pillars: the core, the hips, and the pelvic floor.
Areas of experience
Back pain and movement rehab: Chronic lower/upper back pain and stiffness is rarely just a back issue. I help you look at how your ribcage, breathing, and pelvis work together so you can lift, bend, move and sit pain-free. Read more about my back pain approach →
Pelvic health and movement rehab: Addressing issues like leaking or prolapse. Pelvic health isn't just a postpartum concern—it is an essential foundation for everyday training at any stage of life. Read more about my pelvic health approach →
Hip and pelvis pain rehab: Feeling unstable, pinched, restricted or deeply achy after a walk or workout? I work on restoring optimal alignment and glute mechanics to take the pressure off your hip joints. Read more about my hip & pelvis approach →
Knee Pain and movement rehab: Persistent knee niggles can often trace back to poor muscle balance and hip control. By strengthening your foundation, we build lasting resilience for your joints. Read more about my knee pain approach →
Diastasis recti and core training: Whether you are managing diastasis recti from a past pregnancy or simply feel disconnected from your deep abdominal wall, I can help you rebuild a functional, strong core that works to support your movement needs. Read more about my core training approach →

Hi, I'm Niamh
I’m a movement coach who is passionate about helping women move better, get stronger and feel confident in their bodies again.
I know firsthand how frustrating it is when your body no longer feels trustworthy and you can’t do the things you used to do. Once you’ve tried physiotherapy, massage and the usual approaches, it can be incredibly difficult to know where to turn next.
That experience changed the way I think about movement and training.
I discovered corrective exercise and developed a deeper understanding of biomechanics, strength and functional movement. More importantly, I learned that rebuilding confidence in your body isn't about finding the perfect set of exercises or being told to simply “strengthen your core”. It’s about understanding what your body needs, gradually building its capacity and finding an approach that works for you.
SOMA supports women who are:
Navigating persistent pain (back, knee, hip, pelvis), stiffness or recurring injuries
Experiencing pelvic floor concerns, such as prolapse or leaking
Managing diastasis recti or feeling disconnected from their core
Returning to activities like running after childbirth or a long break
Wanting to move better and feel better
My aim is simple: to help you understand your body, build its capacity and feel confident in what it can do — so you can feel strong, capable and ready for whatever comes next.
Women’s bodies change — movement support should adapt with them.
SOMA provides coaching-led support to help women build strength, confidence, and resilience at every stage of life.
What its like to work with SOMA
Niamh has really helped me with strengthening & back pain relief. Following a programme on the Train Heroic app gives me the routine I need to make time for my training & the videos are really helpful. During 1-1 sessions, Niamh takes the time to figure out the root cause of areas of pain, tackling issues that have been ongoing for years. She is great to work with & always very encouraging, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
