About Lucy Allen
Pelvic & Digestive Health
Physiotherapist
Lucy Allen is a consultant pelvic health physiotherapist based in London, with a focus on digestive health issues.
Since qualifying in 2009, Lucy has worked extensively in the NHS, including at the prestigious St. Marks Hospital. In 2019, she made the challenging decision to leave the NHS and concentrate on developing her private practice. Lucy now runs two private clinics for adults and paediatrics conveniently located in Marylebone offering specialised care for digestive and pelvic health problems.
Lucy’s personal digestive health journey led to her developing a passion for helping people with digestive and pelvic disorders. She understands the significant impact these conditions can have on day-to-day life and is dedicated to empowering her clients to manage their symptoms and regain control. Lucy has also now expanded her services in to paediatric digestive health after seeing the lack of support offered for children and their families.
To further support her clients’ emotional and well-being needs, Lucy pursued a Masters in Psychology, enhancing her ability to provide holistic care and address the unique challenges her clients face.
