Urogynecological physiotherapy during pregnancy and postpartum
Threatment prices
Specialized functional therapy for women, focused on the diagnosis and treatment of pelvic floor muscle disorders and ailments related to pregnancy, childbirth, and the perimenopausal period.
Urogynecological physiotherapy is an advanced field of physiotherapy that focuses on restoring the proper function of pelvic floor structures, central stabilization, and the musculo-fascial balance of the entire body. The therapy is based on detailed functional diagnostics and is always individually tailored to the patient's needs.
How does urogynecological physiotherapy work?
The effectiveness of the therapy results from addressing the root cause of the problem, not just its symptoms. During therapy, there is a gradual normalization of tensions, improvement of neuromuscular control, and restoration of pelvic floor function.
- detailed functional diagnostics – assessment of pelvic floor muscle function, posture, breathing, central stabilization, and musculo-fascial connections
- normalization of muscle tension – reduction of excessive tension or activation of weakened muscles
- improvement of neuromuscular control – learning conscious activation and relaxation of pelvic floor muscles
- manual therapy – work on soft tissues, fascia, pelvic structures, and surrounding segments
- breath and stabilization re-education – restoring proper cooperation between the diaphragm, pelvic floor, and deep muscles
- individually tailored exercises – adapted to the stage of life, health condition, and patient's capabilities
The entire therapy process is phased and progressive, allowing for lasting improvement in function and quality of life.
Who is urogynecological physiotherapy recommended for?
The therapy is dedicated to women at various stages of life, both as a preventive and therapeutic measure.
- women with pelvic floor muscle issues, including urinary incontinence or urgency
- pregnant women – to prepare for childbirth and reduce the risk of complications
- women after natural childbirth and cesarean section
- patients after gynecological surgeries
- women with chronic pelvic pain
- women in the perimenopausal and menopausal period
Properly conducted physiotherapy allows not only for treatment but also for the prevention of the worsening of functional disorders.
What problems do we treat in urogynecological physiotherapy?
The scope of therapy covers a wide range of ailments, often overlooked or considered a "natural consequence" of childbirth or aging.
- urinary and fecal incontinence – improving sphincter control and muscle coordination
- prolapse of reproductive organs – supporting pelvic support functions
- painful menstruation – working on tension, blood circulation, and tissue mobility
- pain during intercourse – normalization of tensions and improvement of tissue elasticity
- excessive pelvic floor muscle tension – reducing pain and discomfort
- pelvic, spine, and pubic symphysis pain – cause-based, not symptom-based therapy
- postpartum issues – restoring proper body function after pregnancy-related changes
- scar therapy after cesarean section and perineal incision – improving elasticity, mobility, and tissue sensation
Each problem is analyzed in the context of the entire body, not just one area.
Effects of urogynecological physiotherapy
The effects of the therapy are both functionally noticeable and evident in daily comfort of life.
- improved bladder and bowel control – reduction or elimination of incontinence episodes
- reduction of pain – less pelvic, spine, and intimate area pain
- improved quality of intimate life – reduced pain and discomfort during intercourse
- better stabilization and posture – relieving the spine and joints
- improved body awareness and sensation – greater control over pelvic floor muscles
- faster recovery post-childbirth and surgical procedures – more efficient return to daily activities
The effects of therapy gradually accumulate and persist with adherence to therapeutic recommendations.
Frequency of treatment
The therapy plan is always individually determined after the first consultation and diagnosis.
- standard recommendation is 1 visit per week
- in more advanced ailments, more intensive therapy is possible
- the duration of therapy depends on the type of problem, its severity, and the body's response
Regularity and consistency are key to the durability of results.
What does the first visit to a urogynecological physiotherapist look like?
The first visit is diagnostic-therapeutic in nature and forms the foundation of effective urogynecological physiotherapy. Its aim is a thorough assessment of pelvic floor muscle function and factors that may influence reported ailments.
- detailed health interview – covering the course of pregnancy and childbirth, gynecological procedure history, pain complaints, lifestyle, and physical activity level
- functional assessment – analysis of body posture, breathing, central stabilization, and deep muscle function
- assessment of pelvic floor muscle function – in terms of tension, strength, coordination, and muscle awareness
- discussion of diagnostic results – clear explanation of the mechanisms behind the ailments
- development of an individualized therapy plan – tailored to the patient's needs, health condition, and daily functioning
The visit proceeds in an atmosphere of complete discretion, respecting the boundaries, comfort, and safety of the patient. The therapy plan is established after the first consultation and may include both manual therapy, exercises, and education about correct daily habits.

Specialized therapy supporting a woman's body during pregnancy, aimed at reducing pain, improving pelvic floor muscle function, and preparing the body for childbirth and the postpartum period.
A specialized form of therapy focused on the real needs of the body during periods of intense biomechanical, hormonal, and postural changes. Its goal is not "light movement for relaxation," but concrete support for the musculoskeletal system, pelvic floor, and nervous system, so that pregnancy is as comfortable as possible and the body is prepared for childbirth and the postpartum period. The therapy is conducted safely, individually, and always adjusted to the trimester of pregnancy and the patient's current health status.
How does physiotherapy work during pregnancy?
Every pregnancy changes the body's biomechanics—the center of gravity shifts, the load on the spine and pelvis increases, and hormones affect joint stability. Physiotherapy addresses these processes in a precise and therapeutic manner.
- Posture, breathing, and movement pattern assessment → allows for identifying sources of pain, overloads, and compensations before they become entrenched
- Manual therapy of soft tissues and joints → reduces tension in the spine, pelvis, and diaphragm, improving movement and sleep comfort
- Work with pelvic floor muscles → teaches proper activation and relaxation, crucial for childbirth and incontinence prevention
- Functional exercises adapted to the trimester → strengthen stabilizing muscles, improve balance, and prepare the body for changing loads
- Learning daily ergonomics → protects the spine and pelvis during sitting, rising, sleeping, and daily activities
The entire therapy is based on current knowledge in urogynecological and perinatal physiotherapy, without using techniques contraindicated during pregnancy.
Who is pregnancy physiotherapy recommended for?
Both women with pain complaints and patients who want to consciously prepare their body for childbirth benefit from physiotherapy. The indications are much broader than commonly believed.
- lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spine pain
- pubic symphysis, pelvis, or hip pain
- muscle tension, "pulling" sensation in the lower back or groin
- swelling of the lower limbs and feeling of heavy legs
- difficulty breathing, diaphragm tension
- preparing pelvic floor muscles for childbirth
- prevention of incontinence and organ prolapse postpartum
The therapy is suitable both in the first pregnancy and in subsequent ones—even for women after previous natural births or cesarean sections.
Effects of physiotherapy during pregnancy
Regularly conducted physiotherapy brings tangible, noticeable results that translate into daily functioning and the course of childbirth.
- Reduction of back and pelvic pain – improved mobility and reduced tension allow normal functioning without constant discomfort
- Better body stabilization – strengthening deep muscles improves balance and reduces the risk of overloads
- Improved sleep quality – reduction of tension and learning ergonomic positions facilitate rest
- Conscious work with the pelvic floor – greater control over muscles crucial during childbirth and the postpartum period
- Better preparation for childbirth – the body works more efficiently, and the patient understands signals from the body
- Reduced risk of postpartum ailments – easier recovery postpartum
The effects are both therapeutic and preventive, which is crucial in perinatal care.
Frequency of treatments and therapy plan
The physiotherapy plan is always determined individually, based on the trimester of pregnancy, reported complaints, and overall health status.
- typically 1 session weekly or every 10–14 days
- in case of severe pain, increased frequency may be possible at the start of therapy
- in the third trimester, the focus is on childbirth preparation and breathing work
Regularity is important—physiotherapy during pregnancy is a process, not a one-time intervention.

Comprehensive Postpartum Recovery after Natural Birth and Cesarean Section – with Functional Assessment of the Entire Body
The postpartum period is a time of intense changes in a woman's body – both at the level of muscles, fascia, and the nervous system. Postpartum physiotherapy at Ambasada Urody Warsaw is a conscious, medical process of restoring the proper functions of the body after natural birth and cesarean section, based on reliable diagnostics and individually tailored therapy.
This is not “post-pregnancy abdominal exercise,” but comprehensive work with the entire body aimed at a real improvement in comfort, fitness, and quality of life.
How does postpartum physiotherapy work?
The basis of effective postpartum therapy is understanding that childbirth affects the entire body, not just the pelvic area. Therefore, the therapy begins with a thorough functional assessment, followed by precise interventions on the tissues and systems that have been overloaded or disrupted.
- Functional assessment of the entire body
→ analysis of posture, breathing, pelvis, spine, and rib alignment
→ examination of the tension of pelvic floor muscles and abdominal muscles (including the linea alba)
→ evaluation of scar mobility following a cesarean section or episiotomy
→ identification of pain compensations and movement pattern disorders
- Manual and fascial therapy
→ normalization of tension in the pelvis, abdomen, diaphragm, and spine
→ improvement of tissue glide and blood circulation
→ reduction of pain and the feeling of a "scattered" body
- Pelvic floor muscle therapy
→ restoration of proper contraction and relaxation function
→ learning muscle control in daily activities
→ preventing further overloads and recurrence of symptoms
- Breathing and movement re-education
→ rebuilding proper diaphragm function
→ synchronization of breathing with movement and muscle tension
→ gradual return to safe physical activity
The entire process is conducted in a medical, calm manner, tailored to the current capabilities of the postpartum body, without forcing and random exercises.
Who is postpartum physiotherapy recommended for?
Postpartum physiotherapy is advisable not only when there is pain or a problem but also prophylactically – to prevent consequences that often reveal themselves months or years after childbirth.
- for women after natural birth experiencing weakness, pain, or discomfort in the pelvic area
- for patients after a cesarean section with a scar affecting posture, movement, and breathing
- in cases of urinary, gas incontinence or a feeling of lack of muscle control
- in the case of diastasis recti
- for back, hip, pubic symphysis, or pelvic pain
- for a feeling of heaviness, descent, or "pulling" in the lower abdomen
- for women returning to physical activity or sports after childbirth
- for patients who want to rebuild their fitness safely and sustainably
It is a solution for women who do not want to ignore the signals sent by the body and are looking for real, not superficial, improvement.
Effects of postpartum physiotherapy
The effects of the therapy build up gradually but are noticeable both in everyday functioning, as well as in the quality of movement and well-being.
- improved pelvic floor muscle control – reduced risk of urinary incontinence, greater sense of stability and security in movement
- reduction of back and pelvic pain – the body stops compensating with tension and overloads
- improved abdominal muscle function – better support for the spine and internal organs
- increased elasticity and mobility of the cesarean section scar – less pulling, numbness, and stiffness
- better posture and breathing – more energy, less fatigue during the day
- safe return to physical activity – without the risk of worsening problems
- greater awareness of one's body – the patient knows how to protect herself against relapses of ailments
These are effects that translate into real quality of life, not just a short-term “feeling of relief.”
Frequency of treatments – therapy plan
The therapy plan is always set individually based on functional assessment and the current stage of the body's recovery.
- first visit: detailed diagnostics and initiation of therapy
- recommended frequency: once a week or every 10–14 days
- average number of visits: 4–8 sessions depending on the problem and therapy goal
- home exercises and recommendations: tailored to the patient's lifestyle and capabilities
This approach allows for lasting effects without overloading the body.

- Manual and fascial therapy → working with deep tissues, scars, and adjacent structures (pelvis, hips, lumbar spine).
- Neuromuscular re-education → learning the correct activation of the pelvic floor muscles in daily activities.
- Functional exercises and breathing → integration of the pelvic floor with the diaphragm and deep trunk muscles.
The entire therapy is conducted safely, respecting the boundaries and comfort of the patient, in conditions of full discretion.
Who is the therapy recommended for?
Pelvic floor therapy is applicable both in treatment and prevention. It is recommended for women at various stages of life.
- for weakened pelvic floor muscles,
- for excessive tension and pain in the pelvic area,
- in cases of urinary, gas, or stool incontinence,
- for feelings of heaviness, "pulling," or discomfort in the lower abdomen,
- after natural childbirth or cesarean section,
