Why Prenatal Pelvic Floor Therapy Isn’t Just For The Third Trimester - 8


Listen Later

Most therapists wait until the third trimester to recommend pelvic floor therapy, but by that point we have already missed valuable opportunities to set our clients up for a smoother pregnancy, delivery, and recovery.


In this episode, I break down what prenatal care should look like across all three trimesters and how treatment priorities shift over time. From strengthening and fascial mobility in the first and second trimester to pelvic floor lengthening and pain management in the third, you will learn how to structure care for optimal outcomes.



I also share how plans of care change when starting at 15 weeks compared to 25 weeks, and why training your staff on timing and scheduling is essential for consistent results.

Whether you are a solo practitioner or running a clinic, this episode will challenge the idea that therapy only matters in the third trimester and give you a framework for offering truly comprehensive prenatal care.
