Are You Expecting? Prepare For Your New Baby with Pre- and Post-Natal Rehab!
Are you expecting a child right now with prenatal and postnatal? Pregnancy is a joyful time for many women, but the body is going through a lot of changes as it grows into a new tiny person! Pregnant women experience changes in posture, higher amounts of pelvic floor stress, ligament stretching, and thickening.
These changes in the body can also create back discomfort and pelvic floor problems, as well as muscular weakness, which can lead to urinary incontinence and difficulty activating the core muscles.
Pregnancy is a normal part of life; nevertheless, prenatal and postnatal therapy may make it considerably more comfortable. We at Newcastle Physiotherapy and Sports Rehab provide you with the care that can minimize and resolve these concerns. Several new mothers begin seeing a physiotherapist within 6 weeks of giving birth, and some even sooner!
Our objective at our Newcastle physiotherapy clinic is to prepare your body for the trip ahead so that you can focus on preparing to welcome your new baby into this world.
Common pregnancy pain problems
Newcastle Physiotherapy and Sports Rehab can help mothers deal with pre and postnatal pains as their bodies experience the effects of pregnancy and childbirth.
Some of the most common symptoms that expecting or new mother’s experience are:
- Urinary or fecal incontinence
- Inability to fully empty the bladder
- Pain during sex
- Dyspareunia
- Prolapse, or the sensation that the organs are “dropping”
- Constipation
These symptoms may seem worrisome at first, but the good news is that you have treatment available to relieve your pain and avoid it from coming back in the future if you are having these symptoms.
What about scarring after giving birth?
By including physiotherapy in your prenatal and postnatal treatment, you will be better prepared for one of life’s most difficult challenges: giving birth and caring for a baby.
Scarring from episiotomies and C-sections is fairly prevalent during pregnancy. This might cause constraints in the body’s myofascial system. When you try to move, you may have a limited range of motion as well as unpleasant feelings and discomfort.
To eliminate these restrictions and avoid further weakening of the myofascial system, our Newcastle physiotherapists employ unique myofascial and scar-release procedures.
Diastasis recti, often known as abdominal separation, can occur in certain women. Diastasis recti can prevent stomach muscle strengthening and result in what some refer to as a “pooch” after pregnancy.
