Pre- and Postnatal Physiotherapy
During pregnancy, changes occur in many different areas of the body. As a result, women often experience lower back pain, incontinence, constipation, pubic bone pain, sacrum and tailbone pain, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
The good news is that we can manage this pain through a careful pre- and postnatal physiotherapy program.
Prenatal Physiotherapy

A strong and coordinated pelvic floor will ease the birthing process and recovery
Perineum Stretching
Stretching the perineum (the tissue between the vagina and anus) may help prevent tears or the need for an episiotomy
Core Strengthening
Treats incontinence and other common discomforts experienced during pregnancy
Postpartum Physiotherapy
Cesarean and Episiotomy Scar Care
Scar care will make your scar less sensitive and more mobile

Pregnancy and Exercise
Pregnant and postnatal women have special needs and should therefore be seen by a Certified Personal Trainer with pre- and postnatal training.
New and expecting moms experience several changes, which increase the demand on their bodies.
Some changes associated with pregnancy include:
Increasing range of motion
Improving flexibility of muscle
Increasing strength and endurance of the muscles
Your exercise program should be tailored to your unique demands so as to prevent injury and pain.
Along with offering pelvic floor physiotherapy, LIFT provides customized pre- and postnatal personal training packages to provide a well-rounded program for our new and expecting moms.
