Pregnancy, labour and birth make huge changes to your body and place a massive toll on it for over 9 months. It is therefore not only important to return to exercise safely but to rehabilitate properly after pregnancy and birth. Reengaging deep abdominal muscles and reducing tension in overworked muscles is our first priority.
Exercise and movement can be used as medicine to help assist with conditions such as DRAM/diastasis recti/abdominal separation, prolapse and pelvic floor dysfunction. It is also fantastic to help improve postures from feeding and alleviating aches and pains from mum life.
Knowing how and when to reintroduce exercise safely can play a huge role in your recovery. Whether you had a vaginal, c-section or assisted delivery, Bloom Exercise Physiologists can assist with your recovery and return to exercise or activity.
