The Postpartum Gap: Why Pelvic Floor Therapy Should Be Standard Care
In the U.S., we celebrate baby showers, birth plans, and nursery themes—but we often forget to support the one making it all happen: the mom.
Pelvic floor therapy during pregnancy and postpartum isn’t just a “nice-to-have”—it’s essential care that too many women are missing out on.
The Problem: Pelvic Health Is Treated as Optional
Unlike countries like France and Germany, where postpartum pelvic therapy is standard, care in the U.S. is often only offered if a patient specifically asks. This reactive model leaves many women struggling with long-term issues like:
-
Pelvic organ prolapse
-
Urinary incontinence (commonly treated with medications instead of rehab)
-
Painful periods and endometriosis
-
Chronic pelvic pain and sexual discomfort
