Looking for a trainer you can trust?

There's a lot of mis-information and frankly, BS, out there about pregnancy and postnatal/postpartum exercise.  Sometimes "qualified" fitness trainers just aren't. Things are improving, but often the advice we see via social media can be misleading and even damaging.

So who do you turn to for pre and postpartum exercise and proper recovery and rehabilitation?

You may not get the right physical check-up from your GP, so make sure you visit a Women's Health Physio for a post-6-week assessment and examination.  You'll find out what rehab stage you're at, how your body has reacted to the challenge of pregnancy and birth and where to go from here. Then, when you're ready to rejoin the world of exercise (and we do advocate taking the first 6 weeks easy!) make sure you use a properly qualified trainer, or visit a class specifically designed for new mums. 

Be aware that some mum & baby classes may not make the right modifications for different stages of fitness and rehab, and different birth experiences. Always listen to your body and if you have any doubts about the content of your sessions, drop us a line and we'd be happy to answer your queries!
