Pregnancy Rehab
During pregnancy physical therapy can help with numbness and tingling in the arms or legs, pelvic-floor, and abdominal weakness, which can lead to incontinence. Post partum physical therapy can relieve pain and promote healing from cesarean sections, episiotomies, vaginal tears, painful intercourse, and pelvic floor dysfunction.
