Pregnancy is a profound and transformative experience for women, accompanied by significant changes in their bodies, including muscles, ligaments, and joints. These changes can sometimes feel overwhelming.

One common condition during pregnancy is urinary incontinence, which involves the accidental leakage of urine, often triggered by coughing, sneezing, or laughing. This can be embarrassing and impact your quality of life, leading to social limitations. Our experienced physiotherapists provide evidence-based strengthening programs for the pelvic floor muscles, offering an effective treatment for urinary incontinence. We also provide re-education and training for abdominal muscles to address abdominal separation.

Additionally, our physiotherapists can address other common issues related to pregnancy, such as low back pain, neck pain, weakness in abdominal and pelvic floor muscles, diastasis recti, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, De Quervain tenosynovitis, and obesity.

To treat these conditions, our physiotherapists employ a variety of techniques, including education, postural correction, pain-relieving electrical modalities, and hands-on manual therapy techniques such as massage and mobilizations.

Furthermore, our treatment plans may include stretching exercises, strengthening exercises, and weight loss programs, recognizing that certain discomforts may be associated with weight gain during pregnancy.

During your initial session, our team of physiotherapists will assess your condition and identify underlying causes to develop a personalized and tailored program that aligns with your needs, aiming for the desired outcome. Active participation in your plan of care is crucial to your recovery.

We understand the importance of providing you with the opportunity to spend quality time with your newborn without the burden of pain or pregnancy-related issues. If you are experiencing any of the mentioned concerns, reach out to PhysioNation. Our team of expert physiotherapists is dedicated to helping you improve and regain your well-being as swiftly as possible.
