More about our Perinatal Pelvic Floor Health Workshop:
This is a Socially Distanced In-person Class
Location: Sports Basement Sunnyvale
Guests need to remain masked at all times while in-store. (Updated September 2021)
Are you pregnant, trying to conceive or within 1 year
postpartum? This workshop is for you and it’s one you
don’t want to miss! Internationally,
pelvic floor physical therapy is part of standard perinatal
care but in America, many don’t even know it exists and
are suffering needlessly because of it.
The pelvic floor is a series of muscles which means
symptoms related to pelvic floor dysfunction can be
improved through conscious rehabilitation. Symptoms such
as peeing yourself, pain with sex, pubic pain, tailbone pain,
diastasis recti, low back pain and prolapse can all be resolved
with proper guidance.
In this workshop, Jenny Putt PT (a pelvic floor physical
therapist), gives an overview of what the pelvic floor is,
how it works and how to improve the function of your pelvic
floor no matter where you are at in the process of having
a kid.
She also addresses the following
concerns:
- what to do about symptoms such as incontinence, prolapse,
hemorrhoids and pain both in pregnancy and postpartum
- how to sleep comfortably
- when you can expect your body to feel normal again
- how to find your core
- what exercises to avoid during pregnancy and in
postpartum
- how to make sex feel good again or even want it in the first
place
And provides guidance in the following
topics:
- preparing the body for labor and delivery*
- labor and delivery positions and pushing strategies*
- cesarean and perineal scars
- baby ergonomics
- how to optimize your pelvic floor function during
pregnancy
- how to make your postpartum recovery the quickest
possible
- how to restore your pelvic floor, find your core and rebuild
to be stronger than ever before
*these topics will be covered at the very end of the workshop
when postpartum individuals will be dismissed and individuals who
are trying to conceive or are pregnant will be asked to stay
Jenny also likes to adapt to the needs of each class to make
sure everyone gets exactly what they need out of the workshop. She
encourages lots of questions and is comfortable answering all of
the questions you might not feel comfortable asking most people.
For her, it is topics she discusses every day with hundreds of
people.
