6-Week Postnatal Check-up
We believe that all new mothers should have access to a 6-8 week postnatal check-up by a Women’s Health physio.
Pregnancy and the delivery of a child (vaginal or caesarean section) brings extraordinary change to your body and your life. While some mothers through this time uneventfully, many mothers find it overwhelming or develop significant health concerns that may persist for weeks and months after giving birth. Having the knowledge and support in what to expect during pregnancy and after birth will allow you to make decisions with confidence regarding your own care and minimise the risk of delaying healing and recovery.
We often see women seeking help much later in life for pelvic trauma that occurred during their child-bearing age. This can often be prevented. Having a thorough assessment and physiotherapy consult at 6-8 weeks after birth by an experienced practitioner, gives you space to discuss concerns, pain, or difficulties you are encountering, as well as confidence about how to safely resume your usual activities. We can help you identify issues not recovering within a usual timeframe and give you the direction that will ensure the best outcomes.
What does a 6-week check-up involve?
Our experienced Women’s Health Physiotherapists Georgie and Rachel offer a 60-minute post-natal consultation.
During this time we;
- Discuss your birth and any symptoms or trauma resulting.
- Discuss your recovery since birth and any concerns that you may have.
- Check your abdominals for any diastasis/separation and discuss any management required.
- Pelvic floor assessment (this may or may not involve an internal examination). This examination assesses the activation and relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles, checking for any tears, and the supportive structures of the bowel, bladder and uterus for signs of prolapse.
- Provide advice on any recommended management plan for you moving forward.
Telehealth - Video and Phone Consultations
Many of our patients travel hours to our office. To make our services more accessible we offer video or phone consultations with Georgie and Rachel. This can be helpful if you’d first like to discuss your case and get clarity as to whether it’s something we can assist you with.
