Prepare for the Arrival of Your Little One with Pre- and Post-Natal Rehab!
Are you currently expecting a child? For many women, pregnancy is an exciting time, however, the body is going through a lot of changes as it grows into a new little person! These modifications typically include changes in posture, increased pelvic floor loads, and ligament stretching and thickening.
These changes in the body can also cause back pain and pelvic floor issues, as well as muscle weakness, which may lead to urinary incontinence and difficulties triggering the core muscles.
Pregnancy is a normal part of life, however, it can be made much more comfortable with prenatal and postnatal therapy. At PacificPro Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine, we combine therapies such as massage therapy and pelvic floor therapy to help make pregnancy and childbirth as smooth as possible.

Physical therapy can help with scarring
By incorporating physical therapy in your prenatal and postnatal care, you will be better prepared for one of the greatest challenges in your life: delivering and caring for an infant.
It’s very common for pregnancy to result in scarring due to episiotomies C-sections. This can trigger restrictions in the myofascial system of the body. When you try to move, this may result in a reduced range of motion or unpleasant sensations and pain.
Our physical therapists use unique myofascial and scar-release strategies to remove these limitations and avoid further compromising of the myofascial system.
Some women can also experience diastasis recti, also known as abdominal separation. Diastasis recti may impede abdominal muscle strengthening and result in what some refer to as a post-pregnancy “pooch.”
