Pre & Post Natal Training

Pregnancy and postpartum recovery place unique physical demands on a woman’s body. Structured, medically guided exercise plays a vital role in maintaining health during pregnancy and restoring strength safely after childbirth.

At our practice, we provide individualised pre- and post-natal exercise programmes designed to support women before, during, and after pregnancy — always tailored to personal goals, medical history, and professional medical clearance.

Our focus is on maintaining fitness, reducing discomfort, preparing the body for labour, and safely rebuilding strength postpartum.

Gestational Diabetes Risk Reduction
Structured exercise improves insulin sensitivity and metabolic health.

Postnatal (Postpartum) Rehabilitation
After childbirth — whether vaginal delivery or caesarean section — the body requires structured rehabilitation to restore strength, stability, and function safely.

Postnatal Programmes May Include:

Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation
Restoring strength and coordination of deep stabilising muscles.

Core Muscle Reconditioning
Gradual rebuilding of abdominal strength, including safe management of diastasis recti.

Postural Correction & Upper Body Strength
Addressing strain from feeding, carrying, and daily infant care.

Progressive Strength Training
Reintroducing resistance training safely and systematically.

Low-Impact Cardiovascular Conditioning
Rebuilding endurance without excessive strain.
