POSTPARTUM RECOVERY
Supporting Recovery and Function After Birth
Postpartum recovery involves ongoing physical changes that can affect the pelvic floor, core, and daily function. At HerCore, we provide pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapy to address common postpartum concerns, including diastasis recti, incontinence, cesarean scar mobility, prolapse, tailbone pain, and more. Our postpartum care focuses on recovery, functional movement and strength, and individualized goals.
