Post Natal Exercise Therapy

"Muscle strength and posture"

After the baby is born, many women experience weakness in either the abdominal or pelvic floor muscles. Some suffer from pain over the lowerback , pelvis or neck regions. This would most likely be due to muscles stretched and weakened during pregnancy and child birth. The assessment and guidance by a physiotherapist for the muscle strength and posture will help devise a post-natal recovery plan which will enable women to adjust to the physical demands of motherhood. Pelvic floor and abdominal muscle exercises are vital to r egain physical fitness and optimalfunction which regain take several months after birth to and regain physical fitness and optimalfunction.

Do I need this?

Women who have had a cesarean delivery or a normal delivery may require pelvic floor rehabilitation. In some instances during labor especially, prolonged labor nerves function to the pelvic floor maybe compromised leading to weakness . Also, pregnancy itself puts significant stretch and strain on pelvic floor muscle and abdominal muscles causing weakness.

A cesarean section is major abdominal surgery with all the complications of such surgeries and therefore the woman will also require general post-surgical rehabilitation. While the other aspects of rehabilitation will be similar to that of a vaginal delivery.

How does the treatment work?

In order to Improve respiratory function, breathing exercises and coughing techniques post delivery are taught to the patient on the first day. Post surgical complications can be prevented with active lower limb exercises, early ambulation, and abdominal exercises with incisional support. Incorrect posture assumed during the postpartum phase may cause injuries and musculoskeletal pain. Guidelines on maintaining a correct posture during feeding and ADL activities would help in preventing injuries and reducing pain. Pelvic floor exercises are taught to patients on day one or two post delivery to strengthen the muscles in order to prevent/reduce the occurrence of incontinence.
