Understanding Pregnancy & Postpartum Physical Therapy

Pregnancy and postpartum physical therapy is a specialized form of care focused on supporting the body before, during, and after childbirth. As your body changes, muscles, joints, posture, and movement patterns are all affected—often leading to discomfort or dysfunction if not properly addressed.

Common physical challenges during pregnancy and postpartum include back pain, pelvic pain, hip discomfort, diastasis recti (abdominal separation), pelvic floor weakness, urinary leakage, and pain with daily activities. Postpartum recovery can also involve healing from C-sections, perineal tears, or prolonged labor.

Pregnancy and postpartum physical therapy addresses these challenges by improving strength, mobility, posture, and pelvic floor function—helping your body recover safely and effectively.

Common Conditions We Treat During Pregnancy & Postpartum

Our specialized therapy services can help with a wide range of pregnancy- and postpartum-related concerns, including:

• Low Back and Pelvic Pain caused by hormonal changes and shifting posture
• Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) affecting the hips, pelvis, and lower back
• Diastasis Recti (abdominal separation)
• Pelvic Floor Weakness or Dysfunction
• Urinary Incontinence before or after delivery
• Sciatic Pain and Hip Discomfort
• C-Section Scar Pain and Mobility Restrictions
• Postural Changes and Core Weakness
• Pain During Daily Activities, Exercise, or Lifting Your Baby

Identifying and addressing these issues early can greatly improve comfort, mobility, and long-term recovery.
