Postnatal Physiotherapist on the Gold Coast Your Recovery Starts Here
Welcoming a baby is a life-changing transformation, but the postpartum period can also bring unexpected challenges for your body. Our postnatal assessments help you regain strength, restore confidence, and address any concerns after birth. With a focus on personalised care, Female Physio Co’s highly skilled postnatal physiotherapist’s on the Gold Coast guides you through a safe and supportive postpartum journey.
Benefits of a Postnatal Assessment
A postnatal assessment is essential for understanding how your body has changed during pregnancy and childbirth. Our female post natal physiotherapist evaluates key areas of your recovery, including:
- Abdominal separation (diastasis recti).
- Pelvic floor strength and coordination.
- Bladder and bowel function.
- Core stability.
- Return to exercise prescription – to suit your goals and lifestyle.
Whether you enjoyed a straightforward birth or experienced challenges such as prolonged labour, larger baby, had an unexpected caesarean or perineal trauma, our care is personalised to meet your needs. Through detailed assessments and tailored guidance, we address common postpartum concerns like urinary incontinence and perineal and pelvic pain.
We also provide evidence-based exercises, pelvic floor therapy and practical advice to help you rebuild strength and confidence as you safely transition back to physical activity, ensuring long-term pelvic health and overall well-being.
Compassionate Pelvic Floor Therapy
A strong pelvic floor is essential for core stability, bladder and bowel control, and overall physical well-being. However, pregnancy and childbirth place significant strain on the pelvic floor – increased weight from the growing baby, hormonal changes, and the physical demands of labour can weaken the pelvic floor and core muscles. This can lead to issues such as incontinence, prolapse, and reduced support for pelvic organs.
All of this means that the health of your pelvic floor is a priority during the postpartum period, so our pelvic floor therapy sessions focus on restoring strength, improving coordination, and addressing any discomfort you may experience postnatally. With a thorough assessment and personalised treatment plan, you’ll feel supported as you rebuild your health and well-being following the birth.
