Supporting You Through Every Stage

About Obstetrical Care

Obstetrical Care at ATI Physical Therapy supports individuals throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period with specialized care. This service focuses on managing the physical changes that occur before during and after childbirth, helping patients stay active, reduce discomfort, and recover safely.

Care is designed to address common musculoskeletal challenges related to pregnancy, including changes in posture, joint stress, reduced core stability and pelvic floor impairments. After delivery, therapy supports recovery by helping restore strength, mobility, coordination and awareness while adapting to the demands of daily life and caregiving.

ATI’s approach aligns with a broader, coordinated model of care, supporting patients across the full continuum from prenatal care through postpartum recovery.

Helping You Prepare, Recover, and Thrive

How Obstetrical Care Physical Therapy Works

Obstetrical Care begins with a personalized evaluation based on your stage of pregnancy or postpartum recovery, physical symptoms, and activity goals. Your physical therapist develops a treatment plan that evolves with your changing needs, ensuring care remains effective throughout each phase.

During pregnancy, therapy focuses on managing discomfort, improving mobility, and preparing your body for labor and delivery. Your therapist provides education on the musculoskeletal changes that occur throughout pregnancy and after vaginal or cesarean birth, along with strategies to improve stability, endurance, and body awareness for a smoother pregnancy, delivery, and recovery.

After delivery, treatment shifts to rebuilding strength and function through progressive strengthening, core stability training, pelvic rehabilitation, and a gradual return to activity. For patients recovering from a cesarean delivery, therapy may also include scar mobility and desensitization techniques to support healing, improve tissue mobility, and reduce discomfort.

Throughout every stage, your therapist provides guidance on safe movement, activity progression, and recovery strategies to help you feel confident at home and in daily life.
