Pregnancy

During pregnancy, many hormonal and musculoskeletal changes occur that can take a toll on the body. Creative Therapeutics offers services and treatments geared toward managing and preventing pain during pregnancy. Educating yourself on how to take care of your body and prepare for labor and delivery or a known cesarean section can decrease your risk for post-partum complications and improve your recovery time.

PREGNANCY MASSAGE with Danielle Rempfer, LMT

Schedule a 30 or 60 minute session for a partial or full body massage. Clients are able to enjoy lying on their stomach with a pregnancy pillow to allow access to the back muscles.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

Our physical therapists have experience working with prenatal patients. We offer treatment for all types of pain during pregnancy. Lower back pain is the most common, as well as sciatica and neck/upper back pain due to changing posture. We utilize safe treatments under the care of your physician.

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, which is common during pregnancy, is often seen by our occupational therapist, Denise Nichols, OTR/L, MT, CIYT. Middle back and shoulder pain is also seen due to postural changes not only during pregnancy, but also in post-partum and when breast feeding.

YOGA

We offer yoga classes weekly on Monday at 5:30 pm, Tuesday at 12:00 pm, and Wednesday at 1:00 pm. These classes are open to anyone including pregnant women in their first or second trimester. Please see the link to classes for more details and registration information.

PELVIC FLOOR THERAPY

During and after pregnancy, problems often arise involving the pelvic floor muscles. These include urinary incontinence, bladder control problems, pain with intercourse and pelvic organ prolapse. Also, traumatic delivery can impact the function of the pelvic floor. Pelvic floor therapy is a unique type of therapy which restores pelvic muscle function after pregnancy.
