Post Partum "Athlete" Program
We Understand
The staff at Agility Physical Therapy& Sports Performance are all athletes in
one form or another, and completely
understand the importance of being
active. Whether trying to return to an
activity due to an injury or after a
pregnancy, sometimes you need the help
of a healthcare professional that has the
expertise to get you “back in the game.”
Common Areas of Injury After Pregnancy
It is common for any athlete to have
some muscle or flexibility imbalances
without any injury. However, when our
body goes through dramatic changes
over a period of time, these imbalances
can be exploited after a pregnancy.
It is common to have injuries in the following areas:
- Low back
- Sacroiliac (SI) joint
- Hip, knee, ankle or foot
- Abdominal or pelvic region
How Can We Help?
With your physician’s permission, we will perform a comprehensive physical therapy evaluation and develop a treatment plan specific to your personal goals, including:
- Exercise program for home or at a fitness center
- Pain management and injury prevention techniques
- Manual therapy and soft tissue massage
