During pregnancy
Back or pelvic pain can affect walking, sleep or movement at work. Describe the activities that are difficult and any advice from your midwife or doctor.
Patient pathway
Pregnancy and after birth
Care adapted to physical changes during pregnancy and after birth.
Movements that return every day
Turning in bed with pelvic pain, carrying a baby or climbing stairs involves more than an exercise on a mat. When home care is suitable, these situations can guide advice and movement practice.
How a home visit worksWhen to ask for advice
Back or pelvic pain, returning to activity and questions about pelvic floor health may warrant an individual assessment.
After birth
Carrying your baby, walking again or returning to activity can raise questions. Mention urinary symptoms or pelvic discomfort during the assessment.
How care is planned
Sessions are guided by your symptoms, stage of pregnancy or recovery, and your care team’s advice. Goals are agreed with you at your pace.
- Comfort and movement during pregnancy
- Gradual return to activity after birth
- Pelvic floor assessment when indicated
Before you get in touch
At first contact, say whether you need care during pregnancy, after birth or for pelvic floor rehabilitation. You can discuss symptoms and maternity team advice with the clinician at the assessment.
Common questions
Can I seek care during pregnancy?
Yes, discomfort can be assessed during pregnancy. The clinician considers your stage, symptoms and advice from your midwife or doctor before suggesting care.
Does pelvic floor care require an intimate examination?
The clinician explains the options before any examination. You can decline or stop one; care must respect your consent and be provided by someone with relevant training.
