Frequently Asked Questions About Pre & Post-Natal Physiotherapy in Kota Kinabalu
Is it safe to exercise during pregnancy?
Yes, with appropriate guidance. Pre-natal physiotherapy in Kota Kinabalu provides safe, modified exercise programs that benefit both mother and baby. Regular exercise during pregnancy reduces back pain, improves sleep, manages weight gain, and can lead to easier labour. Your physiotherapist will adapt exercises as your pregnancy progresses.
When can I start physiotherapy after giving birth?
Gentle pelvic floor exercises can begin within days of delivery. For a full postnatal assessment in Kota Kinabalu, we recommend visiting at 6 weeks post-vaginal birth or 8 weeks post-caesarean section. However, if you have symptoms like incontinence or pelvic pain, earlier assessment is appropriate.
What is diastasis recti and can physiotherapy fix it?
Diastasis recti is a separation of the abdominal muscles that commonly occurs during pregnancy. Physiotherapy in Kota Kinabalu is the first-line treatment – using specific core rehabilitation exercises, your physiotherapist can help reduce the gap and restore abdominal function. Most women see significant improvement within 8-12 weeks of targeted treatment.
