What are some of the benefits?
Most women report feeling more relaxed during the first week. There is a big focus on breathing and that lends itself to relaxation. Women who have gone through the programme have felt:
- Reduction or elimination of dribbles or leaking of urine.
- Closure or reduce “gap” in the abdominals.
- Improved posture
- Increased strength through the deep core muscles (back, abdominals, pelvic floor and hips).
I am unable to perform the more advanced exercise progressions, what should I do?
If you do not yet feel ready to advance you can repeat the week that you just completed and re-assess your progress at the end of that week.
Can I condense the program and get through it more quickly?
Unfortunately this is not recommended, this is NOT a QUICK FIX!
Is this a weight loss or fitness plan?
No, this is a recovery programme. There are specific exercises that are aimed to heal and/or reduce symptoms related to diastasis recti and pelvic floor dysfunction. Do not expect any fad diets here!
How do I access the program?
The program is accessible 24/7 at your convenience, through the learning portal on my website. Once you sign up you will receive an e-mail with the link to the login page as well as your login information.
How long do I have access?
The program learning platform is accessible for 6 months. However all content is available for download in PDF format and is yours to keep.
When can I start?
It is generally recommended to begin this specific course between 6-12 weeks postpartum. It is important that you speak with your doctor prior to beginning any type of exercises.
I've had a baby years ago, is it too late?
It is NEVER too late! I’ve worked with women whom were 5-10 years post-partum as well as women over 60 who had never even had children. This program is accessible to women across the lifespan.
Is this course ok is I had a caesarean?
Yes, this program is safe for post c-section. However, I recommend starting around 8-12 weeks postpartum to ensure that your wound healing is complete. It is also recommended to speak with your doctor prior to beginning any exercise program as every individual has their particularities.
Is this course covered by insurance?
Unfortunately public insurance does not cover the cost of this course. Inquire with your private insurance provider, this may be on an case by case basis.
