After having a baby, your body goes through a lot of changes—especially in the pelvic area. Many women experience bladder leaks, pelvic heaviness, painful sex, or just feel “off” down there. That’s where pelvic health physical therapy (PHPT) can help. And with the right support, like NeuEve, your healing journey can be smoother and faster.
A. What Is Pelvic Physical Therapy for New Moms?
Pelvic health therapy is like personal training for your pelvic floor muscles. After childbirth, these muscles can get weak or injured, especially if you had a vaginal delivery, a C-section, tearing, or needed stitches. Here’s how PHPT helps:
- Kegel exercises: These are gentle squeezes of your pelvic muscles. When done correctly, they can rebuild strength and help with leaks or prolapse.
- Hands-on therapy: A trained therapist may gently massage tight or sore areas to relieve pain or break up scar tissue.
- Core and posture work: Strengthening your tummy and back also supports your pelvic area.
- Bladder and bowel training: Learning when and how to go to the bathroom can reduce strain and accidents.
- Support for prolapse: For mild prolapse (where pelvic organs like the bladder drop), exercises can help. For more serious cases, your therapist might suggest a pessary (a soft support ring).
- Sexual health support: If sex feels painful or uncomfortable, PHPT can help with gentle exercises, dilators, and guidance.
- Education and lifestyle tips: You'll learn how to lift, move, and rest in ways that protect your healing body.
B. What Are the Limits of Physical Therapy?
Physical therapy is powerful, but it’s not magic. Some challenges may need extra help:
- Severe prolapse may need surgery.
- Tight pelvic muscles (not weak ones) can actually get worse with Kegels and may need release work first.
- Scar tissue from C-sections or episiotomies might not fully heal with therapy alone.
- Time and fatigue: As a new mom, it’s hard to stick to a routine when you’re tired and overwhelmed.
- Access to care: Many areas don’t have enough pelvic therapists, and wait times can be long.
- Embarrassment or shame may stop some women from asking for help.
C. How NeuEve Can Help You Heal Faster
NeuEve is a line of natural, hormone-free products designed to support your pelvic recovery—especially when used with Kegel exercises and physical therapy. Here’s what they can do:
1. Strengthen and Repair with the KegelBoost Kit
This kit includes:
- Bone Support supplements: Childbirth and breastfeeding can weaken your bones. Strong bones help anchor pelvic muscles. These supplements give you the calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, and other nutrients your body needs.
- Silk vaginal suppositories: Made with oils and plant-based ingredients, these suppositories help moisturize and heal tissues, especially after tearing, dryness, or irritation.
- Salve (balm): Applied outside the vagina, this cream soothes and hydrates sore or inflamed skin.
These products help your muscles, ligaments, and tissues rebuild from the inside out—especially if you're dealing with prolapse, scar tissue, or slow recovery.
2. Relieve Discomfort During Sex
Low estrogen after birth can cause dryness and pain during intimacy. NeuEve’s Feminine Moisture Support and Kresendo pills help naturally restore comfort and sensitivity—without hormones.
3. Support Bladder Control
If you’re dealing with leaks or frequent urges, combining KegelBoost with Urinary Support supplements and bladder retraining can improve your control and confidence.
4. Fight Vaginal Infections
After childbirth, the drop in estrogen can lead to bacterial or yeast infections. NeuEve’s BV Clear, AV Clear, and CV Clear suppositories gently and safely help your body restore its natural balance.
5. Boost Your Energy and Healing
NeuEve’s multivitamins and bone support formulas give your body the nutrients it needs to rebuild after birth. They support energy, mood, bone strength, and immune health.
Bonus: The products come in oral and vaginal forms, delivering nutrients directly where you need them most.
D. Easier Recovery Between Therapy Visits
Physical therapists are amazing, but there aren’t enough of them. NeuEve helps fill the gap by supporting your recovery at home, between sessions. This means:
- Fewer therapy visits may be needed.
- Faster, more complete healing.
- More moms can get care because therapists aren’t overwhelmed.
