When can I start Postpartum Clinical Pilates?
It depends on the type of delivery, recovery, and individual assessment. In general, it can be started after a physical therapy assessment, even in the first few weeks, with adapted and progressive exercises, when clinically indicated.
Is it safe after a cesarean section?
Yes, when guided by a physical therapist. Appropriate therapeutic exercise helps improve mobility, abdominal function, and overall recovery, while respecting the healing time required after surgery.
Does it help with pelvic floor recovery?
Can it help with lower back or pelvic pain?
Yes. Supervised therapeutic exercise is one of the interventions with the best evidence for reducing postpartum low back and pelvic pain, improving strength, mobility, and motor control.
Is it only for women with symptoms?
No. Even without pain or obvious complaints, Clinical Pilates helps restore the function of your body as a whole, prevent future dysfunctions, and facilitate a safe return to daily activities and exercise.
How many sessions are needed?
There is no set number. Frequency and duration depend on your goals, initial assessment, and your body’s response to exercise.
Is Clinical Pilates the same as “normal” Pilates?
No. Clinical Pilates is a therapeutic exercise, adapted, individualized, and guided by a physical therapist, focusing on function and recovery, not aesthetic performance.
Why is it important to take care of yourself after giving birth?
Because regaining your body’s function, strength, and well-being allows you to better care for your baby and your family. Evidence shows that maternal health directly influences responsiveness, bonding, and quality of life.
