🤰 Pregnant and in pain? Here's what you can expect during a pelvic floor physical therapy session.

Pregnancy can bring aches and pains that make everyday activities uncomfortable—but you don't have to just "deal with it."

During your session, we'll:
✅ Discuss your symptoms, goals, and daily activities
✅ Assess posture, movement patterns, and body mechanics
✅ Evaluate strength, mobility, and core function
✅ Address areas contributing to pain, including the hips, pelvis, low back, and rib cage
✅ Use hands-on techniques when appropriate to improve mobility and decrease discomfort
✅ Teach exercises tailored to your stage of pregnancy
✅ Provide strategies for sleeping, lifting, exercising, and caring for your body throughout pregnancy

Every treatment plan is individualized because every pregnancy is different.

Our goal is to help you move better, feel stronger, decrease pain, and stay active throughout your pregnancy so you can prepare for labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery.

💙 You don't have to wait until after baby arrives to take care of your body.

Pelvic health matters at every stage of life — from athletes, to pregnancy and postpartum, to menopause and beyond 💪

So many women are told that pain, leaking, pressure, or discomfort are “normal,” but they’re common… not something you just have to live with. I love teaching women how connected the body truly is and helping them feel stronger, be more confident and empowered in their movement and everyday life.

Education is powerful, and watching women realize their symptoms are treatable is one of the best parts of what I do. 🤍

Why Start with Gentle Pelvic Floor Exercises After Birth or Abdominal Surgery?

Your body has been through a major event. Whether you've recently delivered a baby or had abdominal surgery, healing comes first.

Starting with gentle pelvic floor and deep core exercises can help:
✅ Improve circulation to support healing
✅ Reconnect your core and pelvic floor muscles
✅ Decrease pressure on healing tissues and incisions
✅ Improve bladder control and reduce leaking
✅ Support posture and breathing mechanics
✅ Build a strong foundation before returning to higher-impact exercise

More is not always better in the early stages. Gentle, intentional movement can make a big difference in recovery and help prevent future issues.

Every recovery is unique. Working with a pelvic floor physical therapist can help you safely progress based on your symptoms, goals, and stage of healing.

Manual therapy during pregnancy isn’t just about massage — it’s a skilled, hands-on treatment approach used by skilled pelvic floor PTs to help your body adapt to the physical demands of pregnancy.

As your body changes, muscles, joints, ligaments, and connective tissue can become tight, sensitive, overworked, or painful.
Skilled manual therapy can help:
• Decrease low back, hip, pelvic, and tailbone pain
• Improve mobility and movement quality
• Reduce muscle guarding and tension
• Support pelvic floor function
• Improve breathing and pressure management
• Help you move, sleep, walk, and exercise more comfortably

Pregnancy places a huge demand on the body. The right hands-on care can help you feel stronger, more supported, and more comfortable throughout pregnancy 🤍

Different Types of Incontinence 💧

Leaking urine is common, but it's not normal—and understanding the type of incontinence you have can help guide the right treatment.

🔹 Stress Incontinence Leakage with coughing, sneezing, laughing, running, jumping, or lifting. This happens when pressure on the bladder exceeds the support of the pelvic floor.

🔹 Urge Incontinence A sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by leakage before reaching the bathroom. You may feel like you have little warning time.

🔹 Mixed Incontinence A combination of both stress and urge incontinence. Many women experience symptoms of both.

🔹 Overflow Incontinence Frequent dribbling or leakage because the bladder isn't fully emptying. This can leave you feeling like you constantly need to go.

🔹 Functional Incontinence Leakage occurs because physical, cognitive, or environmental barriers prevent getting to the bathroom in time.

✨ The good news? Pelvic floor physical therapy can help address many forms of incontinence by improving strength, coordination, breathing mechanics, bladder habits, and overall pelvic health.

You don't have to live with leaks. There are solutions.

🤰 Why does perineal massage help reduce the risk of severe tearing during childbirth?

Perineal massage helps improve the flexibility and awareness of the tissues between the vaginal opening and a**s (the perineum). By gradually introducing gentle stretch to these tissues during pregnancy, they may be better prepared to accommodate the baby's head during delivery.

Benefits may include:
✔️ Reduced risk of severe perineal tears
✔️ Improved tissue mobility and elasticity
✔️ Increased confidence during pushing and birth
✔️ Better awareness of how to relax the pelvic floor

Perineal massage isn't about "stretching yourself open." It's about helping your body become familiar with pressure and relaxation, which can be beneficial during birth.

While tearing can never be completely prevented, preparing the pelvic floor and perineal tissues during pregnancy may help support a smoother delivery experience.

A pelvic floor physical therapist can teach you the proper technique and help determine if perineal massage is right for you.

💧 Do you suddenly feel the urge to p*e when you hear running water?
🚽 Do you p*e "just in case" before leaving the house?

These may seem normal, but they can actually be signs that your bladder and pelvic floor are developing habits that aren't serving you well.

When we repeatedly p*e "just in case," we train our bladder to signal urgency before it's truly full. Over time, this can lead to increased urinary frequency, urgency, and even leakage.

Hearing running water and immediately feeling like you need to go is often a conditioned response—your brain has learned to associate that sound with urination.

Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you:
✔️ Improve bladder habits
✔️ Reduce urgency and frequency
✔️ Retrain the brain-bladder connection
✔️ Improve pelvic floor coordination and control

You don't have to plan your life around the nearest bathroom.
