COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT: Our experienced physiotherapists conduct a thorough assessment to understand the individual needs, concerns, and goals of postpartum women. This assessment includes evaluating the pelvic floor function, abdominal muscles, posture, and overall physical condition. Based on the assessment findings, we develop personalized treatment plans.

PELVIC FLOOR REHABILITATION: Pregnancy and childbirth can have an impact on the pelvic floor muscles, leading to issues such as urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, or pelvic pain. Our program includes targeted pelvic floor rehabilitation exercises to strengthen and restore the function of these muscles. This helps improve bladder control, support pelvic organs, and reduce discomfort.

CORE STRENGTH AND STABILITY TRAINING: The abdominal muscles undergo significant stretching and weakening during pregnancy. Our program focuses on retraining the deep core muscles, including the transverse abdominis and pelvic floor muscles, to restore core strength and stability. These exercises help reestablish proper alignment, enhance postural support, and facilitate functional movements.

FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT TRAINING: The demands of motherhood require strength, stability, and endurance for activities such as lifting, carrying, and bending. Our program includes functional movement training exercises that mimic daily tasks and help women build strength and endurance for these activities. This promotes the ability to perform daily tasks with ease and reduces the risk of injury.

CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONING: Pregnancy and childbirth can temporarily impact cardiovascular fitness. Our program incorporates appropriate cardiovascular exercises to gradually improve cardiovascular endurance and overall fitness. These exercises may include low-impact activities such as walking, swimming, or stationary cycling. Gradually increasing the intensity and duration of cardiovascular exercises helps women regain their pre-pregnancy fitness levels.

POSTURAL CORRECTION AND ERGONOMICS: The physical changes that occur during pregnancy can affect posture and alignment. Our program includes postural correction exercises and education on ergonomics to address any postural imbalances and promote optimal alignment. This helps alleviate muscular imbalances, reduce postural strain, and improve overall body mechanics.

DIASTASIS RECTI MANAGEMENT: Diastasis recti is a separation of the abdominal muscles that commonly occurs during pregnancy. Our program includes specialized exercises and techniques to help manage and reduce diastasis recti. These exercises focus on strengthening the deep core muscles and promoting proper alignment of the abdominal wall.

GRADUAL RETURN TO EXERCISE: We provide guidance and support for women who want to return to their pre-pregnancy exercise routine or engage in new fitness activities. Our program includes a gradual progression of exercises and activities, ensuring a safe and appropriate return to exercise while considering individual healing and recovery processes.

EDUCATION AND SELF-CARE: We provide education on various aspects of postnatal health and self-care. This includes guidance on breastfeeding postures, safe lifting techniques, proper body mechanics during daily activities, and strategies to manage fatigue and stress. Empowering women with knowledge and self-care strategies promotes overall well-being during the postnatal period.

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT: The postnatal period can be emotionally challenging for women as they adjust to their new role as mothers. Our physiotherapists provide a supportive and empathetic environment, offering emotional support and guidance throughout the postnatal conditioning program. We understand the importance of addressing emotional well-being to promote overall postpartum recovery.

By participating in our Postnatal Conditioning program, women can experience improved physical strength, functional abilities, and overall well-being after childbirth. Our dedicated team of physiotherapists is committed to providing personalized care, evidence-based interventions, and ongoing support to help women navigate the postnatal period and achieve their health and fitness goals.
