The pelvic floor is one of the most overlooked yet essential parts of postpartum recovery. It’s the foundation of your core, supporting your bladder, bowel, and uterus. After childbirth, this group of muscles often needs targeted care to recover fully. As a pelvic floor physiotherapist, I’ve seen firsthand how transformative pelvic floor therapy can be for new moms.
Childbirth—whether vaginal or cesarean—can strain or weaken the pelvic floor. Without proper care, this can lead to:
Incontinence: Leaking urine or stool is common but not normal and can be treated.
Prolapse: A feeling of heaviness or bulging in the vaginal area occurs when pelvic organs shift due to weakened support.
Pain: Discomfort during intercourse or daily activities often stems from tight or weakened pelvic floor muscles.
Pelvic floor therapy is at the heart of our program. Here’s how it works:
Assessment and Education: We start by helping you understand your pelvic floor—what it’s doing well and where it needs support.
Targeted Exercises: From kegels to release work, we guide you through movements that rebuild strength and flexibility.
Integration with Daily Life: Learn how to engage your pelvic floor during activities like lifting, carrying, and even sneezing.
Women who commit to pelvic floor therapy often report:
Improved bladder and bowel control.
Reduced risk of prolapse or relief from existing prolapse symptoms.
Enhanced sexual health and comfort.
