Pelvic floor physiotherapy and clinical pilates for every body Physical therapy for pelvic health.

Giving birth is one of the most physically demanding things a person might do in their lifetime.

But historically, strength training during pregnancy hasn't been the norm. What’s up with that?

At Cheerful, we want to equip you with the tools and information you need to feel strong and empowered. In this month’s blog, we’re sharing the benefits of exercising while pregnant.

Hopping on the haunted house bandwagon!!!

Pelvic floor physio has come a loooong way over the last decade. We know so much more about how to integrate PF care to the whole body and the whole person to get best results.

Gone are the days where we give all clients kegals and hope for the best.

So if this has happened to you… there is so much more that can be done!

Don’t give up! Shop around and find a better fit.

*disclaimer - of course some people do need PF exercises, but that should be assessed as part of a bigger system and never assumed or rote care

Sunshine and good times can be a great distraction from pain! When we generally feel better, we’re less sensitive to pain and more relaxed, so it’s common for clients to tell us that their pain or symptoms went away while on vacation. This also makes it easy to take a vacation from rehab because you’re feeling so good!

Unfortunately, the shorter days and getting ‘back to reality’ often bring the return of your symptoms. Can you relate? If so, now’s a great time to reprioritize your self-care.

For most pregnant folks, the idea of navigating the postpartum period is anxiety-inducing, to say the least. So we wrote a blog post on the postpartum healing process after a vaginal birth to give you a sense of what is and is not normal during this important recovery time.

We recommend having your core and pelvic floor checked 6-8 weeks after you give birth. Having said that, you’re welcome to check in any time, even it’s before the 6-8 week mark, if you are experiencing any of these things. There are ways we can support during this time.
