Postpartum Fitness
at invigorate, we offer safe postpartum personal training sessions to support you in your journey back to movement.
postnatal Personal training
Firstly, every mother’s journey back to exercise is completely different. Your physical and emotional strength play such an integral part in navigating life as a new Mama and the importance of self-care is vital in your new role. So, whether these sessions are a necessity for your postpartum recovery or a very valid excuse to have the ‘me time’ you need, we will be there to guide you safely into a movement routine with special attention and focus on:
Slow and safe core and pelvic floor rehabilitation
Lower back and hip stability
Full body mobility and strength to support new Mama-related imbalances
Restorative and calming breathwork for healing and stress management
* All new Mamas will need to have clearance from their healthcare provider that it is safe for them to resume their movement activity prior to their first session.
initial consultation & movement assessment
First, let’s talk about your postpartum health and fitness goals and any previous training/injury history. This is an opportunity for us to learn more about how we can best work together to achieve your health and fitness needs.
In your first session we'll look at how your body moves in several functional movement patterns that require a balance of mobility and stability to determine if there are any weaknesses, imbalances, asymmetries or limitations. From here, we can prescribe corrective movement exercises specific to your needs and program a training plan with purpose, that aligns with your movement goals.
