Did you get the information you needed after your csection?

It’s sooooooo important to help mom heal after a major abdominal surgery!l like cesarean birth. As challenging and icky as the scar may feel after delivery, it’s so imprortant to work on your scar to help decrease restriction, decrease numbness, improve sensation, and decrease pain around the scar.

One of the easiest things you can do to improve your scar is to use silicone for healing. It can come in strips or gel. You can start using as soon as the scar is healed and use for 6 months. It can help decrease the color, texture and pain of the scar.

Physical therapy can also help address scar mobility and recover abdominal strength after your cesarean delivery.

Like after any other major surgery, the post-cesarean-section experience is no walk in the park; you’re talking pain, limited activities and likely scarring, not to mention that recovery takes weeks.

Yet for many women, the surgery can have lasting effects, including loss of core strength, urinary incontinence and back pain. So how can women prevent these issues or effectively treat them once they’ve started happening?

Pelvic health physical therapy can help you recover from this major abdominal surgery, with the RIGHT post c-section care!

Something is wrong with this picture...All of the prenatal visits…and then….
At your SINGLE VISIT postpartum where you're "cleared for all activities", are your pelvic floor and core even checked? 🤨

You're "cleared" to return to exercise, but who helps you do so safely? Who follows up to see if you're having heaviness, leakage, bulging/coning of your abdominals that you didn't have before? Are you going right back into running, jumping, and high intensity before your muscles are coordinating properly because nobody told you that wasn't the best for your body that quickly? 🤨

You're "cleared" to resume sexual activity, but who follows up to help navigate any pains and discomforts once you've actually tried? 🤨

You're "cleared" for resuming normal activities, but your tissue, incisions, and muscles haven't even fully healed yet. 🤨

Your body went through a lot and I'm here to help you navigate the healing and rebuilding process. 🙋🏼‍♀️
