About Louise

Louise Thornton, Registered Midwife

Hi, I’m Louise.

I’m a Registered Midwife with 21 years’ experience caring for women birthing in hospital and at home. I’m also a trained nurse, and a mother of four.

Today my work is with women outside labour and birth: internal pelvic release, caesarean scar release, birth debriefs and matrescence coaching. I trained in internal pelvic release with Fiona Hallinan of The Pelvic Space, and see clients at Flourish Chiropractic in Albury.

I believe every woman should own her body and her decisions. That belief drives my advocacy, from speaking to the Parliamentary Friends of Maternal Health to bringing local women together to call for better access to home birth and trauma-informed care.
