here are lots of changes that have occurred to your body after giving birth. The muscles of the pelvic floor could be stretched, strained or torn during labour. Some of these changes can cause urinary incontinence, low back pain, pelvic organ prolapse or even pain with intercourse.
A pelvic floor physiotherapist will work with you to help to strengthen your pelvic floor and guide you back to regular activities and exercise. They will also check for diastasis (separation of the abdominal muscles in the centre) and help restore the core.
Even if you had a cesarean, it is still important to see a pelvic floor physio to ensure your scar is mobilized and to check your pelvic floor to ensure proper strength.
