THE BALANCED MOMTALITY

After you receive the green light from your OB-GYN or midwife for exercise around the six-week mark, it is necessary to also get cleared by a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist. We will evaluate the function of your pelvic floor and core system, and its ability to perform during your daily demands. Your therapist will examine your tissues for appropriate healing, strength, control, and presence of scar tissue, trigger points, pain, prolapse, DRA, hemorrhoids, and hernias. This will make sure that you safely return to sports and exercise to avoid any injury, pain, or incontinence.

Prenatal Massage and Physical Therapy

 

THE BALANCED MOMTALITY

After you receive the green light from your OB-GYN or midwife for exercise around the six-week mark, it is necessary to also get cleared by a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist. We will evaluate the function of your pelvic floor and core system, and its ability to perform during your daily demands. Your therapist will examine your tissues for appropriate healing, strength, control, and presence of scar tissue, trigger points, pain, prolapse, DRA, hemorrhoids, and hernias. This will make sure that you safely return to sports and exercise to avoid any injury, pain, or incontinence.
