If there is one thing I could tell every first time mother to invest in, it would be seeing a pelvic floor physiotherapist
Pregnancy places a huge amount of strain on your pelvic floor muscles and surrounding tissues. As your baby and uterus grows, your body adapts, stretches, and moves toward its physiological limit.
As somebody with pre-existing conditions (endometriosis and interstitial cystitis), I knew that pregnancy could place extra stress on my body. Pelvic floor physiotherapists are experts in this space, and can work with you to support your body with tailored exercise, stretches, and massages.
Seeing a pelvic floor physiotherapist, particularly in your first pregnancy, is a fantastic way to gain insight into your own body, and learn more about how you can best support your body throughout pregnancy and beyond.
whealth supported and empowered me to have the best possible experience during pregnancy and postpartum. I am so grateful that I had access to this service. Day by day, I feel stronger in my c section recovery, with small habits I learnt in my sessions.
