Postpartum Physical Therapy

Your body goes through incredible changes during pregnancy and childbirth—and recovery deserves just as much care and attention. Postpartum physical therapy is designed to help you heal, regain strength, and feel confident in your body again. Research shows that at least 40 million women may experience long-term health issues stemming from childbirth, including:

• Pain during intercourse — 35%
• Lower back pain — 32%
• Fecal incontinence — 19%
• Urinary incontinence — 8 to 31%
• Anxiety — 9 to 24%
• Depression — 11 to 17%
• Perineal pain — 11%

Whether you delivered vaginally or via C-section, we provide personalized treatment to support your recovery safely and effectively. Your care plan is tailored to your body, your birth experience, and your goals. All sessions are hands on for a one hour private treatment session.

C-Section Scar Care

C-section scars can lead to tightness, discomfort, and restricted movement. Gentle, hands-on techniques help:

• Improve scar mobility
• Reduce pain and sensitivity
• Restore abdominal function
• Prevent long-term adhesions

Diastasis Recti (Abdominal Separation)

Separation of the abdominal muscles is common after pregnancy and can affect core strength and stability making it painful and difficult to move as you did prior to pregnancy. Treatment focuses on:

• Healing and reconnecting the abdominal wall
• Reducing abdominal “bulging” or doming
• Supporting safe return to exercise
• Education on controlling your breath and pressure

Core Strength & Stability

Your core is more than just abs—it includes deep stabilizing muscles that support your spine and pelvis. We help you:

• Rebuild deep core strength
• Improve posture and alignment
• Safely progress back to fitness and daily activities
• Improve pelvic floor mobility, strength and reduce pain

Back, Neck, and Hip Pain

Postural changes, lifting, feeding positions, and carrying your baby can lead to discomfort. We address:

• Teach safe lifting techniques (baby, car seat, stroller)
• Proper posture for feeding and holding
• Strategies to prevent strain and injury

Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

The pelvic floor plays a key role in bladder, bowel, and sexual function. After childbirth, it may beweak, tight, or uncoordinated. We treat:

• Urinary leakage (incontinence)
