Pregnancy and Postpartum Package:

With this package I will provide care throughout the span of a woman's pregnancy and postpartum period to help guide them through the many changes that will happen during this special time. I want to empower women to take control of their pelvic health. 


Package includes:  Two visits while pregnant, One virtual visit 1-4 weeks postpartum and Two visits 6-12 weeks postpartum


Pregnancy (second and third trimester) Two office visits:

  • Comprehensive history
  • Movement assessment
  • Introduce diaphragmatic breathing and connection to your core and pelvic floor
  • Prepare your pelvic floor for labor and delivery
  • Discuss labor and delivery positions for optimal pelvic floor health
  • Address patient's individualized needs including mobility, pain, ect. 


Early Postpartum (weeks 1-4) One Virtual visit:

  • Discuss safe movement guidelines (getting out of bed, lifting baby)
  • Progress breathing exercises for pelvic floor and core awareness following labor and delivery
  • Educate on proper positions and posture for breastfeeding/bottle-feeding to avoid discomfort

  • Educate on proper care of the pelvic floor and core in early postpartum
