Pregnancy + Postpartum Packages

Third Trimester Support: ~34–40 weeks

A focused series designed to help you enter birth feeling prepared, supported, and confident.

Where: Available in-home or in clinic, at least 1 session will be in your home. 

Cost: $1,250 for 6 sessions

What’s included:

• Preparing your body for birth:
  Optimize pelvic alignment, mobility, and breathing patterns to support an efficient labor. Learn positions that encourage pelvic outlet opening and reduce strain.

• Pain management strategies:
  Hands-on techniques, movement modifications, and positioning strategies for common discomforts (pubic symphysis pain, low-back pain, rib flare, etc.).

• Strength management:
  Guidance on safe loading, glute + deep core activation, and how to maintain function without increasing intra-abdominal pressure.

• Education on what to expect postpartum:
  Bleeding norms, bowel/bladder changes, early mobility guidelines, and what is actually normal vs what needs a clinician’s attention.

• Preparing your home for postpartum:
  Ergonomic setup for feeding, lifting baby, safe sleep arrangements, and movement patterns that protect healing tissues.

• Myofascial Release (MFR):
  Gentle, pregnancy-safe techniques to reduce tension, improve mobility, and promote relaxation before birth.

 

Fourth Trimester: 0–6 Weeks Postpartum

A supportive, restorative phase focused on healing, comfort, and regaining functional movement. This phase is about healing, not “exercising.” It provides real-time support while your body is undergoing its most dynamic recovery.

Where: AT HOME ONLY.

Cost: $1,400 for 6 sessions

What’s included:

• Understanding your recovering body:
  Guidance on tissue healing timelines, swelling, bleeding, bowel/bladder changes, and navigating early postpartum sensations.

• Body mechanics for daily movement + nursing:
  Ergonomic setups for feeding positions, lifting baby, getting in/out of bed, managing stairs, and reducing pain during essential tasks.

• Problem-solving ADLs and IADLs:
  Personalized modifications so you can perform daily roles safely (e.g., laundry, childcare, meal prep, car seat logistics).

• Introduction to the recovering pelvic floor:
  Gentle breath-based activation, strategies for urinary urgency or constipation, and awareness of what is normal vs concerning.

 

Fourth Trimester: 6–12 Weeks Postpartum

With OB clearance, shift from early recovery into intentional rebuilding of strength, mobility, and confidence.

Where: Available in-home or in clinic.

Cost: $1,250 for 6 sessions. Usually 1x/wk, but can be offered 2x/wk (usually for severe prolapse or c-section healing) with second session at $150/hr.

What’s included:

• Slow, safe return to exercise:
  Progressive programming for walking, lifting, Pilates, running, or sport—without aggravating symptoms.

• Myofascial release for scarring:
  C-section scar mobilization, perineal scar support, abdominal MFR, diaphragm release, and strategies to minimize adhesions.

• Preparing your body to return to work:
  Ergonomics for lifting, sitting/standing tolerance, carrying baby gear, or returning to physically demanding jobs.

• Pain management:
  Addressing lingering low-back, pelvic, hip, rib, or tailbone pain through manual therapy and movement strategies.

• Strength management:
  Guidance to rebuild deep core, pelvis, and global strength with balanced breath mechanics and load tolerance.
