Postpartum recovery is more than the six-week checkup. If your core still feels disconnected, your pelvic floor still feels off, or you're just not sure your body is ready for what you want to do next, we help you rebuild the right way.
For postpartum recovery, whether it’s been 6 weeks or 16 years.
Pregnancy and childbirth change your body in ways a single follow-up appointment rarely addresses. Here's what we hear most.
“My abs haven't gone back together.”
The ab gap that won't close“I feel like my body isn't mine anymore.”
Feeling disconnected from your core“I want to get back to how things were before, but I don't know if it's safe yet.”
Not sure what's safe to do againWhether you're weeks or years postpartum, a full pelvic floor and core evaluation tells us what's actually going on, not just what trimester you're in. We build a plan around reconnecting your deep core and pelvic floor so you can lift, carry, and move without pain, heaviness, or leaking.
We assess your pelvic floor, core, and movement patterns together, at any point after delivery, not just at six weeks.
Traditional core exercises can make separation worse. We teach you to engage your deep core and pelvic floor together.
Preparing your body for birth, and staying comfortable through late pregnancy, is part of what we do.
You don't need to self-diagnose before you call. This just helps you see we've treated exactly this before.

Months or years out from delivery and still not feeling like your body is fully yours again."Bounce back" culture skips the actual rebuilding. Here's how we do it properly.
“Urinary leakage has been an issue since I gave birth 20 years ago and I just accepted it as my lot in life... I'm now back to running and jumping without leakage! I'm so glad I invested in my body.”
Yes, in most cases. That separation of the abdominal muscles responds well to the right kind of physical therapy. The goal isn't just closing the visible gap, it's restoring tension and control in your deep core so it supports you during real movement, not just when lying still.
No. We regularly work with women whose symptoms started years, even decades, ago. The muscles and coordination patterns we retrain don't have an expiration date.
Yes. Traditional core exercises like crunches can increase pressure on an already-separated core. We'll show you exactly which movements to avoid for now and which ones actually help.
It depends on your delivery and recovery, but many women benefit from an evaluation as early as a few weeks postpartum, and there's no cutoff on the other end either.
Yes. We see women throughout pregnancy for pain, heaviness, and birth preparation, not only for postpartum recovery.
