Pregnancy + Postpartum Pelvic Physical Therapy

Your body goes through incredible changes during pregnancy and postpartum

 

 

Pregnancy and birth place significant demands on your body. As your baby grows, your muscles, joints, and pelvic floor must adapt to support your changing body. After delivery, your body begins the process of healing and rebuilding strength.

 

While many symptoms are often dismissed as “normal,” that doesn’t mean you have to simply live with them.

 

Pelvic physical therapy helps support your body during pregnancy and guides a safe, confident recovery after birth so you can return to the activities you love.

How Pelvic Physical Therapy Helps During Pregnancy

Pelvic health physical therapy during pregnancy focuses on reducing discomfort, improving mobility & activity, and preparing your body for birth

 

Common reasons:

  • Low back pain

  • SI Joint or pelvic girdle pain

  • Pubic symphysis pain

  • Sciatica

  • Hip pain

  • Urinary leakage

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

  • Constipation

  • Core weakness

  • Difficulty staying active

 

Treatment focuses on improving pelvic mobility, core support, breathing patterns, and movement mechanics so your body can better handle the physical demands of pregnancy.

 

Many women are able to stay active, exercise comfortably, and experience less pain with the right guidance and plan.

Postpartum Recovery

Giving birth is a major physical event for your body — whether you had a vaginal delivery or cesarean birth.

 

Even after being “cleared” at 6 weeks, many women still experience symptoms that can make exercise, lifting their baby, or returning to normal activities challenging.

 

Pelvic physical therapy helps guide your body through the recovery process safely and effectively.

 

Common postpartum issues we treat include:

 

  • Diastasis recti (abdominal separation)

  • Urinary leakage

  • Pelvic pressure or prolapse symptoms

  • Pain with intercourse

  • Low back or hip pain

  • Tailbone pain

  • Cesarean scar restrictions

  • Perineal scar discomfort

  • Core weakness

  • Difficulty returning to exercise
