Postnatal conditions treated at In Step

We regularly assist new mothers in addressing a wide range of postnatal conditions, helping them navigate the recovery process with expert care. These conditions include:

  • Urinary Incontinence: Changes in the body during pregnancy and delivery can lead to involuntary leakage of urine, a condition known as urinary incontinence.
  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse occurs when the muscles and tissues supporting the pelvic organs weaken, causing one or more pelvic organs to drop or press into the vagina.
  • Postpartum Depression: Although primarily a mental health condition, postpartum depression can manifest in physical symptoms such as fatigue, aches, and pains.
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: The swelling during pregnancy can put pressure on the median nerve in the wrists, leading to symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, such as numbness, tingling, or pain in the hands and wrists.

At In Step Physical Therapy, our specialized postnatal physiotherapy services are designed to effectively manage and treat these conditions, promoting faster recovery and better overall health after childbirth.
