Pelvic health physiotherapy is important for moms at all stages of motherhood regardless of whether your’ve had a vaginal or cesarian birth. It’s never too late.

 

The benefits of pelvic health physiotherapy postpartum include:

 

• Learning how to reconnect to your core muscles to provide the best support for your body postpartum

• Learning strategies to prevent, manage and resolve common postpartum conditions      including low back, tailbone and pelvic pain, diastasis recti, constipation, urinary/fecal incontinence, prolapse, pain with intercourse

• Learning how to reduce scar tissue tension from birth (vaginal or cesarian) to reduce pain and improve core strength

• Learning what exercises are appropriate to strengthen your core (kegels are not always the correct exercise)

• Learn effective strategies to return to the exercises and activities you enjoy after giving birth.
