What to expect in physiotherapy
Your physiotherapist will guide you through safe, gentle exercises and techniques to support pelvic alignment, breathing coordination, and perineal relaxation. Sessions may include pelvic floor awareness (learning how to relax and activate), birth positioning strategies, partner-assisted techniques, and education on postpartum recovery. The goal is to help you feel empowered, prepared, and in tune with your body as you approach birth.
