Pregnancy Pain

Two women in a doctor's office talking to each other.
Pregnancy is one of the most unique and life-changing events a woman can have. It might also be challenging to take care of yourself during this time. Pelvic floor irregularities, on the other hand, are relatively frequent during this period and can be quickly addressed with no effort. Taking care of these problems when they emerge will spare you years of discomfort and incontinence. It is estimated that during pregnancy…
These problems are not confined to vaginal birthing women. Pregnancy hormones may cause the body’s ligaments to relax, placing mom at risk for pelvic rotations even if she had a c-section. Scar tissue following the c-section may also impede the pelvic floor muscles’ ability to relax or contract, resulting in total discomfort and incontinence. Continuous Motion Physical Therapy can check abdominal muscle function, overall posture, scar tissue mobility, and pelvic floor muscle activity in great detail. When the root cause of the problem is discovered, a tailored treatment plan can be devised to address it, allowing you to resume living the life you desire.
Don’t Put Off Continuous Motion Physical Therapy Any Longer.

You've Come To The Right Place If You Said "Yes" To Any Of These Questions!

In Continuous Motion Physical Therapy, many postpartum women are subjected to unnecessary suffering because they are informed…

The Reality Is…

If You’re Tired of Having Painful Sex, a Mommy Tummy, or Chronic Low Back Pain, Continuous Motion Physical Therapy Can Help You Get Back to Doing What You Love (Even if It’s Been 20 Years!) Without the Need of Pills, Pads, or Surgery.

You must select the most outstanding healthcare provider for your unique requirements. If you don’t, you risk having unneeded surgery, developing a drug or painkiller addiction… or living the rest of your life with deteriorating symptoms.

Leakage, abdominal separation, pelvic floor dysfunction, and postpartum hip/back/pelvic discomfort must be treated utilizing the “least-invasive,” most natural manner to minimize recurrence.

For recovery, a provider who understands how the body operates is necessary. Both pregnancy and postpartum transform our bodies. To recover properly, we must address the neck/back/diaphragm/core/pelvic floor/pelvis, posture, strength, and body use. There’s more to it than just Kegels!

We must treat more than just the symptoms to guarantee a thorough recovery. You must collaborate with a specialist willing to investigate the root reasons for your symptoms and dysfunction. That is when you will receive a LONG-TERM answer to your postpartum issues.

At Continuous Motion Physical Therapy, We’ve Developed a Three-Step Procedure to Eliminate Your Postpartum Problems and Ensure You Never Have to Deal With Them Again.

STEP 1 - WE WOULD LIKE TO HEAR YOUR STORY.

I’m fed up with our healthcare system. You have to wait weeks, if not months, for an appointment to meet with the doctors for 10 minutes before they rush to the next patient, leaving you scratching your head and thinking, “What just happened?”

The bulk of physical therapy facilities function in this manner. They are hurried and inattentive; your therapist needs more time to learn about your goals or engage with you one-on-one. That is why we work in such disparate ways!

That is why we are interested in hearing your tale first.

After successfully working with several postpartum moms, we recognize that no two people are alike. Each individual has a different body, history, pain, and symptom patterns.

As a result, we will have an open chat as a first step and invite you to tell your tale. We’ll have a better grasp of what’s wrong with your body and how it hurts your life.

STEP 2 - DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF YOUR SYMPTOMS

Many people can express what is wrong with their bodies using a medical phrase or diagnosis. Perhaps it was prescribed by their doctor, tests discovered the condition, or you learned about it online.

Prolapse, Diastasis Recti, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, Incontinence, Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain, or Hip/Back/Pelvic Pain may have been diagnosed.

Your only options were most likely to relax, take medication, or wait.

These solutions may provide temporary relief, but they need to address the root source of the problem.

Each person’s source of pain or symptoms is unique. Nobody experiences the same issue as someone else due to the same item.

Continuous Motion Physical Therapy’s purpose is to treat the root cause of your discomfort so that it not only goes away but stays away!

We recognize that you may remain dubious of Integrative Physical Therapy. As a result, we developed a low-cost Discovery/Screening Visit.

Our Discovery Visits are designed for clients who are suspicious, uncertain or have previously been disappointed. You will understand what is wrong and how long it will take to repair it during the Discovery Visit, and you will develop confidence that your condition can be resolved naturally!

STEP 3 - REMOVE THE PROBLEM AND PREVENT IT FROM REAPPEARING

This is when significant changes occur. We provide a customized strategy that allows you to…

…continue physical activity (even running or jumping!) without worrying about resuming pain, stiffness, or bladder control problems.

…be able to communicate with your children and effortlessly lift and carry them.

…continue intimate connections with your spouse without worry of discomfort.

…return to your favorite sport (yoga, running, tennis, etc.).

You will reclaim your power, confidence, and sensuality as your body heals from the Diastasis Recti/Abdominal Separation and regains full core strength.

Motivated individuals who desire to restore an active lifestyle are our ideal clients. (Even if they are incarcerated right now!)

You do not have to give up your hobbies or family life due to challenges that can be resolved.
