Whether you are experiencing back pain, pelvic discomfort, abdominal weakness, or general physical strain after pregnancy, treatment recommendations are based on your symptoms, recovery stage, and daily activity needs.
What Is Postnatal Physiotherapy?
Postnatal physiotherapy focuses on assessing and supporting the body’s recovery after pregnancy and childbirth. During pregnancy, muscles, joints, and pelvic structures undergo considerable changes, which may continue to affect comfort and movement after delivery.
Postnatal physiotherapy may involve assessment and management of common post-pregnancy concerns through guided rehabilitation, movement education, and personalised care plans. Treatment recommendations are always based on individual assessment findings and recovery goals.
What Postnatal Physiotherapy May Address
Every postnatal recovery journey is different. Some women may experience physical discomfort for a short period, while others may notice ongoing symptoms that affect daily life. As individual presentation and treatment outcomes vary, postnatal physiotherapy may help manage:
- Lower back and pelvic pain
- Neck and shoulder tension from feeding or carrying your baby
- Abdominal muscle weakness or separation
- Pelvic floor muscle concerns
- Postural strain and joint discomfort
- Reduced strength and mobility after childbirth
- Gradual return to physical activity and exercise
Assessment and treatment planning are based on your symptoms, recovery stage, and movement goals.
