Experience a Confident Pregnancy and Postpartum Recovery

At Connect NW Physical Therapy & Wellness, we believe in empowering you to move, feel, and live well during pregnancy and postpartum. Whether you’re preparing for the birth of your child or recovering after delivery (vaginal or c-section), we’re here to help you embrace this journey with strength, confidence, and health.

Let us partner with you to create a customized approach that supports your body’s natural changes, helping you achieve a healthy pregnancy and a smooth, empowered postpartum recovery.

How Pregnancy & Postpartum Changes Affect Your Body

As your body adapts to pregnancy, delivery, and recovery, certain changes occur that can affect your muscles and joints, contributing to symptoms including:

  • Diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) or abdominal separation

  • Pelvic girdle or low back pain

  • Neck and mid-back pain

  • Urinary or fecal incontinence

  • Urinary urgency

  • Constipation

  • Pelvic organ prolapse (POP)

  • Pelvic pain (during intercourse, urination, or even when sitting)

  • Scar tissue discomfort from perineal or C-section recovery

These challenges can arise due to structural changes to accommodate your growing baby, hormonal shifts, and the increased flexibility of ligaments. With the right support and guidance, you can enjoy a more comfortable, healthier journey—one that prepares you physically and mentally for both childbirth and the beautiful life you’re creating with your baby.

Strength, Conditioning, and Support at Every Stage

The demands on your body shift as you transition into motherhood. It’s vital to nourish and support your body with strength-building exercises tailored to your unique needs—both during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. Proper preparation and recovery will not only help you alleviate pain and discomfort but also promote overall health and vitality.

Our team at Connect NW Physical Therapy & Wellness offers personalized care to help you:

  • Build strength, stability, and flexibility throughout pregnancy

  • Prepare your body for labor with exercises that support pelvic floor health and optimize posture

  • Recover and restore function post-birth, including rehabilitating any abdominal separation, pelvic floor concerns, or back pain

  • Enhance your overall wellness and energy, boosting confidence as you transition into motherhood

Everyone’s experience is unique, and we are committed to offering you the guidance, education, and support you need to feel empowered in your body every step of the way.
