Physical Therapy for Women

Maternity & Postpartum Issues

  • During pregnancy and after delivery, almost 70% of women experience radiating low back or neck pain which should be addressed with physical therapy.
  • A common postpartum complaint is urinary incontinence and, to a lesser degree, fecal incontinence.
