Postpartum Rehab: Why Your Body Deserves Recovery After Baby
Congratulations on your new baby! Welcoming a little one into your life brings joy, love — and major changes to your body. Whether you delivered vaginally or via C-section, pregnancy and childbirth place significant stress on your core, pelvic floor, and overall movement patterns. Many new moms are surprised by how unfamiliar their body can feel postpartum.
If you’re experiencing discomfort, weakness, or simply feeling disconnected from your body, postpartum rehabilitation can play a powerful role in your recovery.
Why Postpartum Rehab Matters
During pregnancy, your core and pelvic floor adapt to growing and supporting your baby. After delivery, it’s common to notice:
Core weakness
Pelvic pain
Back or hip pain
Diastasis recti
Scar discomfort (C-section or perineal tearing)
Incontinence or prolapse symptoms
Loss of confidence returning to exercise
This stage of life can feel overwhelming — but you don’t need to navigate recovery alone.
Postpartum rehab helps you safely reconnect with your core and pelvic floor, rebuild strength, and return to movement with confidence. With guidance from trained professionals, you can prevent injury, manage symptoms, and feel strong again.
What Postpartum Rehab Can Help With
A well-structured postpartum rehabilitation program can support you through:
✓ Core and pelvic floor retraining
Learn how to properly activate and coordinate the muscles affected by pregnancy.
✓ Safe exercise progression
Avoid jumping back into workouts too quickly and reduce the risk of injury.
✓ Postpartum concerns
Including:
Diastasis recti
Incontinence
Pelvic organ prolapse
Low back pain
Hip or pelvic pain
✓ Scar management
Support for C-section or perineal scars to improve mobility and reduce discomfort.
