Pre And Post Natal Programs

Physical therapy during pregnancy is useful for remedying the common discomforts, especially back pain. Four of the five main causes can be addressed directly with a proper physical therapy program.

Why the back hurts

Where pregnancy back pain comes from

  • An increase in hormones
  • Gaining additional weight
  • Added stress
  • A change in the body’s center of gravity
  • A decline in posture

The program

What to look for in a pregnancy physical therapy program

Created and managed by a licensed PT

Your program is designed and adjusted by a licensed physical therapist, not handed to you as a printout.

Strength, flexibility, posture

Focused on building strength, increasing flexibility, and improving posture, so the strain of carrying and delivering a baby has less to grab onto.

Home exercises for your diagnosis

Home-based exercises appropriate for your diagnosis and your stage of pregnancy.

Proactive

We look for any weakness that may become a problem later and address it first.

Pilates-based

Many approaches may include our Pilates program with mat and reformer apparatus.

After delivery too

A postpartum program rebuilds the core and posture so you can get back to lifting, carrying, and sleeping without pain.

Over the last 40 years, the average age of women having their first child has risen from 21.4 to 25, and more women are having their first child after 35 with less daily physical activity beforehand. Source: American Pregnancy Association, Pregnancy and Physical Therapy.
