Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy During Pregnancy in Las Vegas
You don't have to just get through pregnancy. You can feel good in it — and set your body up for a better birth and recovery.
Most people think of pelvic floor PT as something you do after things go wrong.
In reality, it's one of the most valuable things you can do during pregnancy — both for the symptoms you're dealing with right now and for what comes next.
Pain, leaking, instability, pressure — these are common in pregnancy, but they're not things you should have to white-knuckle through until your due date. And the work you do now directly affects how your body handles labor and recovers afterward.
You shouldn't have to just "deal with it"
Pregnancy changes everything — your center of gravity, your hormones, your posture, the load your joints are managing. Pelvic floor PT addresses the musculoskeletal symptoms that come with those changes:
Pelvic girdle pain or symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD)
Low back pain and sciatica
Piriformis and hip pain
Groin or inner thigh pain
Urinary leakage or urgency
Rib pain and thoracic tightness
Round ligament pain
Pelvic pressure or heaviness
If your provider has told you this is just part of pregnancy — it's worth getting a second opinion. Most of these symptoms are highly treatable.
Introducing Birth Rx — pregnancy care that goes further
Birth Rx is our prenatal-through-postpartum program, designed for patients who want more than generic "prenatal exercise" advice. It's clinical care, built around your body, your birth plan, and your recovery goals.
The program moves through three phases:
01
STEP ONE
Symptom management
We address whatever you're dealing with now: pain, pressure, leakage, instability. The goal is to keep you moving, comfortable, and strong through your pregnancy.
02
STEP TWO
Labor preparation
This is the part most patients have never heard of. We work on breathing mechanics, pressure management strategies, optimal fetal positioning, and the pushing techniques that reduce tearing and pelvic floor trauma during delivery. This isn't theoretical — it's hands-on preparation that can meaningfully affect your birth experience.

STEP THREE
Postpartum readiness
Before you deliver, we build a plan for what comes after. You'll know what to watch for, when to start rehab, and how to safely return to the activities you love.
What about diastasis recti?
Diastasis recti — the separation of the abdominal muscles along the midline — is extremely common during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters. It's not something to panic about, but it is worth understanding early.
During pregnancy, we assess your abdominal wall, teach you how to load your core in a way that doesn't worsen the separation, and prepare you for the postpartum rehab that will help it heal properly. The goal isn't to prevent every case of diastasis — it's to make sure you know what's happening and have a plan.
Struggling to conceive?
Pelvic PT isn't a fertility treatment — but for some patients, musculoskeletal factors are part of a complicated picture. Restrictions in the pelvic floor, abdomen, and surrounding tissues — often from prior surgeries, endometriosis, or pelvic inflammatory disease — can affect pelvic organ mobility and circulation. Visceral mobilization and soft tissue work address those restrictions.
If you're working with a fertility specialist and want to explore whether there's a musculoskeletal component worth addressing, we're happy to be part of that conversation.
Your first prenatal visit
Your first visit starts with a thorough conversation — your pregnancy history, current symptoms, birth plan, and goals. We then do a full musculoskeletal assessment of your spine, hips, and pelvis.
A pelvic floor muscle exam is available and often very informative — we'll talk through what it involves and let you decide whether it feels right for where you are. A lot can be addressed externally, and we'll always move at your pace.
Sessions are one-on-one with your therapist. No aides, no group classes — just focused care tailored to you.
