Postpartum Pelvic Floor Weakness
I was a patient of Lexi’s 3.5 months after delivering my daughter. She is an amazing practitioner, and made a somewhat personal and uncomfortable experience less intimidating. Lexi’s bedside manner is top notch; she is an excellent conversationalist and made the sessions fly by. Her assessment is comprehensive, holistic, and went well beyond “just” the pelvic floor. In addition to pelvic floor strength, we also worked on regaining strength and properly resuming some of my favorite physical activities (running, lifting, yoga). She is an expert in her field and explained everything in thorough, easily comprehensible terms. The at-home time commitment can be easily incorporated; even as a busy new mom! After about 6 weeks with Lexi, I’m back to working out as I did pre-pregnancy (with no residual pelvic floor weakness) and I continue to utilize her prescribed exercises as supplements to my workouts. Pelvic floor physical therapy should be standard of care after carrying and delivering a baby…and Lexi is an absolute gem.
