PRE/POST NATAL HEALTH
Gabrielle is a pelvic health physical therapist and Pilates instructor that will customize sessions that meet your needs throughout the duration of your pregnancy and as your body heals after birth.
At Village Therapy and Wellness we know you want to stay active and healthy during and after pregnancy for yourself and your baby, however, you may feel unsure about what you can and can’t do, or your usual exercise no longer feels ‘right’.
Additionally, simple everyday tasks like lifting, bending, carrying groceries, or running after your other children can put additional strain on your changing body.
Private wellness sessions are the perfect way to keep exercising safely during and after pregnancy. Private sessions are specifically designed for pre or postnatal needs, including exercises that focus on rebuilding your core strength, glute strength, pelvic floor muscles, and improving your posture. Furthermore, Gabrielle will modify or incorporate any exercises to address your individual body and needs, including pain, tummy separation, pelvic floor conerns, and more.
Gabrielle will also take time to educate you on your changing body and provide individualized take-home exercises that will help you stay strong and healthy during pregnancy.

FAQs:
DO I NEED MEDICAL CLEARANCE?
Yes! Medical clearance is required from your Obstetrician, GP or Midwife. Please provide proof of clearance and your doctor/midwife’s contact information at your first session.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Wear something you feel comfortable moving in and which allows you to get on and off the floor easily. For breastfeeding moms, a supportive bra is a must!
WHEN CAN I START PRE-NATAL SESSIONS?
You can start at any time during pregnancy, but many women like to wait until they are past the 1st trimester.
WHEN CAN I START POST NATAL SESSIONS?
We know you’re eager to jump back in, and Pilates is one of the safest ways to start. However, it is best to wait until you are 4-6 weeks postpartum, depending on your delivery type. Medical clearance is recommended from your Obstetrician, GP, or Midwife.
CAN I BRING MY BABY?
Yes! Your baby can stay right next to you in their carrier, or Gabrielle is happy to snuggle with them if they start getting fussy.
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
It’s a good idea to bring a water bottle (there is a water cooler in the studio), and maybe a snack if you tend to get hungry after exercise. If you’re bringing your baby, please also bring some toys or a small rug/mat for them to lay on while you exercise.
