New mothers in France connect with a pelvic floor physical therapist for advice on how to return safely to physical activities and exercises postpartum. In the US, pregnant and postpartum mothers are not given adequate resources on how to rehabilitate their bodies and many return to exercise and physical activities too quickly, potentially causing damage to their bodies. This damage may manifest as immediate incontinence or pain, pain or dysfunction with a subsequent pregnancy, or injury and dysfunction 5+ years later.
In Verity’s Virtual Postpartum Rehabilitation Program you’ll receive:
Safety and security knowing that you are rehabilitating your body in the comfort of your own home.
Expert advice from Pelvic Floor Specialist, Dr. Carolyn Latham of Verity PT & Wellness.
Encouragement and guidance throughout your early postpartum time.
Education on what your pelvic floor is, how it functions with the rest of your core, and how you can properly strengthen it to stay injury and dysfunction free now and in the future.
Empowerment to continue thriving in the activities that fulfill you.
Peace of mind because you are preparing your body for whatever is to come – more children, running ultra-marathons, being able to play soccer with your kids…
