If that doesn't help enough, we can help you identify the root cause of your pain, whether its your hip, back or pelvic floor, and give you specific corrective exercises for long term relief. In the meantime, here are some simple wins to get you moving forward faster!

🤓You might see a lot of things out there to get stronger postpartum. Your recovery doesn't have to look like everyone else's. Postpartum recovery is a whole body exercise. It's not one symptom or another. You need a program that works for you.

🏃‍♀️Your whole body works together so you should have exercise that teaches you posture, breathing, ab recruitment and strengthens your whole body in unilateral, bilateral and cross body patterns. It should work into natural movement patterns that you do anyway throughout your day and strengthen you there.

🎈Balloons are a great way to get resistance in your core. Its not always practical but its effective.

If you want some advice or a personalized recovery plan, postpartum or otherwise, give us a call at Fettle & Fit. 804-985-1234. You won't have the same plan as anyone else. We don't do cookie cutter here.

So often people come to us and say, "I'm not constipated! I p**p a little all day long."

When asked if they return to the bathroom because they don't feel empty, then most of the time they say yes.

This is a sign of constipation!

You should have half your body weight in oz of water spread throughout the day (i.e. 120lbs = 60oz) and plenty of fiber in your diet. If that doesn't do the trick, then come see us and we can help!

Imagine this: I'm sitting in my treatment room during my lunch break getting caught up on some notes when I hear the most BEAUTIFUL cello music fill the whole office. To my absolute joy, I realized it was my client preparing for her next session with me.

As an occupational therapist (OT), we differ from PTs in that we specialize in activity analysis of your "occupations." Occupations are considered everything you do throughout your day to occupy your time: self care, taking care of your chores/errands and family, your job, and your favorite leisure activities such as playing a musical instrument.

For her, the symptoms she presents with impair her ability to enjoy one of her favorite occupations--playing the Cello.

I love working at Fettle & Fit and being outside of an insurance-based model, because it allows me to truly be an occupational therapist and have sessions like this without restrictions or stipulations.

What occupations would you like to get back to doing without limitation?

Meet our team, and maybe see a side you didn't see before.

Our Intuitive:
Elizabeth shines the brightest in her role as pelvic floor occupational therapist when she connects to the heart of her client, allows them to be vulnerable and hears when they realize she is in the career she was meant to be in.

Our Lightbringer:
If you've met Anastasia then you know she is our sparkly patient coordinator, marketer and lots of other stuff. Everyday she brings a delightful energy and positive attitude to work, excited to provide excellent care to our patients and support and cheer on co-workers.

Our Optimist:
As both our leader and foundation, Casey is the optimist. She always believes that better outcomes are possible, no matter the health issue, problem or question. She is highly motivated to find creative solutions, offer choices and constantly strives to be better and help others be better.

Postpartum can be overwhelming. You're in a new life, with a new baby and a new body. Everything is unfamiliar and its hard to know where to start. It may even hurt bending over, picking up your baby, or trying to do even a gentle stretch.

Your body changes postpartum, and that's okay. However, change can be scary and lonely and feel weird. Getting back into exercising can feel daunting. We know. We see it everyday and we're here for you.

Working with our pelvic floor therapists after birth can help you understand your "new" body and how to feel comfortable as your new self. You can get back to exercising, picking up your baby without pain or leakage and going on a nightly walk.

Having hands-on therapy that guides and cues you allows you to really understand what your body needs and what feels good for you. With our team, everything we do is 1:1 with you and your therapist. You are never alone, working with someone less educated or less skilled and we are always striving to work at your pace, level and comfort. You get personalized care at Fettle & Fit and that is essential to our value system.

Is this familiar? Does your back hurt as you stand for long periods of time - like while you're doing the dishes? Yes, you probably need some strengthening and stability, but try this easy trick to give you some relief in the meantime.

This has been helpful for people washing dishes, clients who are surgeons or people who are at standing desks throughout the workday. Think about it while brushing your teeth, washing bottles, waiting in line and more. Grab a little stool and prop your foot! We've got lots more tips where this came from!
