Postpartum Rehab
Congratulations on being a new mom! With a newborn in your hands, it is easy to forget how far you have come along in your pregnancy, labour and delivery journey.
As moms, we may experience postpartum pain, incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, abdominal separation (recti-diastasis), weak core strength, back and pelvic pain. If we do not take care of ourselves postnatally, pregnancy and childbirth can leave our bodies in persistent pain. Home ergonomics, moms' breastfeeding postures and childcare techniques must also be assessed to reduce injuries. In case moms need a cesarean section, extra attention must be paid to the cesarean scars, surgical pain and associated emotions.
Physical therapy plays a huge role in postpartum care. For your convenience, virtual care and home visits are available during this challenging, but most joyful period as new moms.
See "HNG's 3 Modes of Care" and "HNG Women's Physiotherapy" for more details.
