Comprehensive Postpartum Physical Therapy Services

Core and Abdominal Recovery

Diastasis recti affects up to 60% of postpartum women, creating a separation in the abdominal muscles during pregnancy. Our specialized treatment approach includes targeted exercises and manual techniques to restore proper muscle function and core stability. We guide you through progressive strengthening while ensuring proper technique to prevent further separation.

Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation

Pregnancy and childbirth can significantly impact pelvic floor function, leading to issues like bladder leakage or pelvic pressure. Our treatment combines specialized pelvic floor rehabilitation with education about proper muscle coordination. We help you rebuild strength and control, addressing both immediate symptoms and long-term pelvic health.
