Your Body Changed. This Pain Isn't Normal.
Bladder Leaks & Urgency
Rushing to the bathroom, leaking when you sneeze, or avoiding the trampoline with your kids — postpartum incontinence is incredibly common, but it is not something you simply have to accept as your new normal.
Pelvic Pain & Prolapse
Pelvic Pain & Prolapse
A feeling of heaviness, pressure, or pelvic pain during daily activity or intimacy can be signs of pelvic floor dysfunction — and these symptoms respond beautifully to the right specialized care.
Diastasis Recti & Core Weakness
