Prenatal Care & Birth Coaching in Vancouver
Prepare Your Body and Mind for Birth with Expert Prenatal Pelvic Physical Therapy and Birth Coaching
Preparing for birth is about so much more than just showing up on delivery day. Our prenatal pelvic physical therapy and birth coaching services are designed to help you feel physically and mentally ready, giving you confidence and control over your birth experience. With the support of a skilled pelvic health physical therapist, you’ll learn techniques to optimize your body for birth, including ways to minimize pain, reduce tension, and address any pregnancy-related symptoms like back pain or bladder leaks. Working with a specialist in pelvic health is the new standard of care for expecting moms who want to take an empowered approach to birth.
Our birth coaching sessions typically begin with an assessment in the second trimester. We’ll work closely with you to develop a personalized plan that focuses on areas like breathing, core and pelvic floor coordination, and optimal positioning—all designed to support you in having a smoother, more intuitive birth experience. Taking this step is a powerful way to support your body and reduce reliance on medical interventions, as you become an active participant in your own birthing journey.
Let’s Make Birth Preparation the New Standard of Care
Your birth provider plays an important role, but the journey to an empowered birth experience starts with you. When you take the time to prepare your body and mind, you create space for a more easeful, supported birth. Join us for a virtual consult or in-person assessment to start your path to an empowered birth.
