Maternal Health

With the arrival of a new little one, it is common to feel a great number of difficulties both emotionally and physically throughout pregnancy and following delivery.

These difficulties can be felt on a personal level or can manifest as a result of your newborn having a difficult time adapting.

Physiotherapy can help new mothers at many levels throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period:

  • Back pain and/or hip pain;
  • Urinary incontinence;
  • Preparation for cesarean section (planned or unplanned);
  • Post-cesarean recovery (recommended as soon as possible);
  • Difficulty with latching and breastfeeding;
  • Overall assessment of the newborn: motor skills development, tongue tie, congenital torticollis, and more;
  • Guidance for the athletic mother in how to run or jog safely in pregnancy and in the postpartum period (when is it the right time to return to high intensity activities).

Did you know…

  • Physiotherapy can help to reduce inflammation and pain caused by breastfeeding.
  • Approximately 32% of babies in Canada are delivered via cesarean section.
  • Through the proper positioning of baby and mother, latching to breast can be greatly facilitated.
  • Many cesareans are not planned and therefore mothers are often unprepared unlike with vaginal births

Physiotherapy can help EVERY mother to rediscover her body and find healing.

Important Announcement

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of our Cumberland location, which will likely occur gradually until July 1st, 2024. After much consideration and evaluation, we have come to this difficult decision due to several reasons, most notably the challenges we have faced with staffing.
 
The decision to close our Cumberland location was not made lightly. We have explored various options to address the staffing issues, but unfortunately, we have not been able to find a sustainable solution that would allow us to continue operations at this location.
 
We want to express our deepest gratitude to all our clients who have trusted us with their care over the years. It has been a privilege to serve the Cumberland community, and we are truly grateful for your support and loyalty.
 
For our clients who still require physiotherapy services, we encourage you to visit our main location in Plantagenet, where our team remains committed to providing the highest quality care. We are also available to assist you in transferring your care to another clinic if needed.
 
Once again, we thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging time. If you have any questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
