Jess Westall

Senior Women’s Health Physiotherapist

Languages Spoken: English. 

About Me

Jess is the kind of Physiotherapist who remembers your name, asks about your dog, and somehow makes talking about your pelvic floor feel like catching up with an old friend.

Originally from the UK, she trained in the NHS—starting as a junior Physio in London before working her way up to senior roles. For the past three years, she's been in the private sector in Newcastle, supporting clients through pregnancy, postnatal recovery, menopause, and everything in between. She's worked with women in their 20s navigating endometriosis, new mums trying to run again without leaking, and clients in their 80s who just want to get up off the floor with confidence. Now she's brought all of that experience to Hong Kong.

Jess doesn't believe in "just live with it." Whether it's incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain, or a C-section scar that still feels tender years later, she's here to listen—really listen—and give you a plan that actually works.

"It is genuinely never too late to make change. Whether that's being able to get off the floor again, or rehabbing so you don't have to wear an incontinence pad anymore—the opportunities are endless."

She means it, too. Jess has seen clients in their 80s make incredible progress. She's watched new mums go from fearing a sneeze to running 5ks. She doesn't put an expiry date on healing.

If you've been putting off that pelvic floor check, or you're tired of planning your life around bathrooms, or you just want to run again without crossing your legs—Jess would love to see you. She practices in Hong Kong and books are open.

What Clients Say

"Jess was fantastic with helping me get back into fitness post having a baby. I was recommended to her by a friend and she helped me fix issues I didn't know I had but could have impacted me when I'm older."

"Jess is amazing at what she does. Professional, incredibly knowledgeable and made me feel at complete ease."

"With a long wait on the NHS I decided to get help sooner, and it was very well worth doing. Jess was amazing, thorough, sensitive, knowledgeable and best of all her advice and treatment has been effective."

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Whether you're 6 weeks postpartum or years down the track, Jess can assess your abdominal separation and give you a safe, effective plan to rebuild the function of your core.

  • PTNS (Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation) is a treatment for overactive bladder and urge incontinence. Jess is qualified in acupuncture and uses PTNS for clients who need more than just pelvic floor exercises. She's had great success with it, even for severe cases. She is hoping to bring this to Evolve in the near future. 

  • It's a specialized manual therapy technique that works on C-section scars to reduce adhesions, desensitize the area, and improve mobility. In addition, it can improve the appearance of your scar and reduce the “shelf”. Jess used this treatment option at her previous clinic and has seen it make a huge difference for postnatal clients. Watch this space! 

  • Generally no—you can book directly with Jess. If you're planning to claim through insurance, it's worth checking whether they require a GP referral.

  • That depends on what you're coming for. Some clients feel a huge shift in 3–4 sessions. Complex conditions like chronic pelvic pain or severe OAB may take longer. Jess will give you a realistic idea during your first appointment.

  • Yes. While her background is in women's health, she now sees men for pre- and post-prostate surgery rehab.
