Book certified postnatal physiotherapy in Chennai. Restore pelvic floor strength, heal diastasis recti, recover from C-section rehab, and solve back pain with personalized in-clinic and virtual sessions.
Postnatal physiotherapy is a specialist rehabilitation programme designed to help mothers recover physically after childbirth. It addresses pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti (abdominal separation), C-section scar tissue, postpartum back and pelvic pain, and guides a safe return to exercise.
Most mothers can begin a postnatal physiotherapy assessment from 6 weeks after a vaginal delivery with medical clearance. After a C-section, a comprehensive assessment is appropriate from 6 to 8 weeks. C-section scar mobilisation typically begins from 8 to 12 weeks once the wound has fully closed.
Yes. Physiotherapy is the primary evidence-based treatment for diastasis recti (abdominal muscle separation after pregnancy). Your physiotherapist measures the gap, assesses tissue function, and prescribes a progressive core rehabilitation programme. Common exercises like crunches can worsen the condition and should be avoided without clinical guidance.
Yes. Urinary leakage (stress incontinence) after childbirth is one of the most responsive conditions to pelvic floor physiotherapy. The majority of cases improve significantly with a properly assessed and supervised rehabilitation programme. Not all pelvic floor problems require strengthening — some require releasing — which is why clinical assessment is essential before starting any exercise programme.
Yes. Motherly offers specialist C-section postnatal physiotherapy in Chennai. This includes post-operative recovery guidance, C-section scar mobilisation from 8 to 12 weeks, abdominal rehabilitation adapted to avoid stress on the healing incision, and pelvic floor recovery tailored to C-section delivery.
It is never too late. Pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti, C-section scar restriction, and postpartum back pain all respond well to physiotherapy even months or years after delivery. Many mothers seek treatment ahead of a second pregnancy to ensure they are in the best physical condition before conceiving again.
