Breathing well often tends to be forgotten as a key element during pregnancy or postpartum & can have significant effects on our bodies. Other factors that may affect diaphragm expansion include poor abdominal tone, a tense or tight pelvic floor, poor posture, and habitual shallow breathing. This is where a qualified pelvic floor PT (that’s us!) can help by assessing your specific needs and developing an individualized treatment plan. It can never hurt to at least get assessed! Breathing is one of our primal needs – and doing it well will always pay off!

Check out our short step list for beginning your fertility journey!
Breath Work
Sometimes we just need to take a deep breath for a moment when life becomes too stressful or chaotic or overwhelming. But have you ever noticed how you take that deep breath?
Here at Recharged PT, we’ve talked *a lot* before about the importance of appropriate core engagement for pelvic health. This includes learning how to breathe properly. So today we are going back to the basics to learn how to breathe.
