Pregnancy and child-labour, place an increased demand on a mom’s body. Exercise during pregnancy increases physical endurance and muscle strength, especially in the hips, back, abdomen and pelvic floor. Improving these areas can prepare your body for the physically demanding event of having a baby and assist in your recovery after the delivery. At Elevation, our specialized pelvic health physiotherapists will work with you to create a balance of mobility and stability as well as lifestyle and home exercise adjustments that will help you sustain this balance throughout your pregnancy and beyond.

Incontinence is the lack of voluntary control over urination and may increase as we get older. It can occur at any time in your life and happens often during activities that increase abdominal pressures like coughing, lifting, jumping, running and laughing. Incontinence is manageable and most often treatable irrespective of your age or physical condition. At Elevation we design effective strategies, awareness techniques and pelvic floor exercises to maintain a healthy bladder and improve your quality of life.
