Supporting Pelvic Health During Pregnancy and Postpartum
Restore Strength, Comfort, and Confidence—Before and After Pregnancy
Pelvic Floor Therapy is a focused physical therapy approach that helps women strengthen the muscles supporting the bladder, uterus, and bowel—especially during pregnancy and postpartum. At Apex Physical Rehab, our expert therapists design customized treatment plans to relieve discomfort, improve function, and support your recovery journey.
What Is the Pelvic Floor?
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and connective tissues that form a supportive sling at the base of the pelvis. These muscles are vital for bladder and bowel control, sexual function, and core stability.
Common Issues During Pregnancy & Postpartum
Pregnancy and childbirth often place significant strain on the pelvic floor. This can lead to:
-
Urinary incontinence (leakage during sneezing or exercise)
-
Pelvic organ prolapse (when pelvic organs shift downward)
-
Pelvic pain or pressure
-
Sexual dysfunction (pain during intimacy or reduced sensation)
-
Low back pain and bowel difficulties
