Pregnancy and childbirth are incredible experiences, but they can also bring unique challenges to our bodies. Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy (PFPT) can be a wonderful adjunct to your journey into motherhood! Here’s why you should consider it an essential part of your healthcare both while pregnant and after having birth:
- Preparation is Key: PFPT can teach you positions, breathing strategies and manual techniques to make you as prepared for labor as possible.
- Your Comfort Matters: Between changes in blood volume, hormone levels and connective tissue behavior, your body is going through A LOT while growing a baby. PFPT can help keeps you as pain free and comfortable as possible!
- Postpartum Healing: After childbirth, your pelvic floor deserves some TLC. PFPT accelerates your recovery, addressing common postpartum issues like incontinence and pelvic pain.

- Enhance Your Well-being: A strong pelvic floor means better bladder control, bowel habits, sexual function, global strength and overall well-being.
