PREGNANCY: Whether it is your first, or fifth pregnancy, your body is changing quickly in alignment, ligamentous laxity and musculoskeletal stresses. Pregnancy is a great time for women to learn about their body and to establish wellness habits.  Not only do our practitioners have specialized training, but they also feel passionate about supporting women.  Typically, pregnant women come to Jade PT for: pregnancy related pain, bed rest in pregnancy, sciatica, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, low back pain, pelvic pain, thoracic outlet syndrome (numbness in the wrists and hands), incontinence or rib pain.

POSTPARTUM: Jade's women’s health providers are experts in their field. There are many physical and psychosocial changes occurring during this period and we are here to help you navigate these changes in a pain free way. Topics typically discussed in a telehealth postpartum visit include: caring for your perineum and pelvic floor, positional and postural support during feeding, pain prevention and reduction, bowel and bladder function, C-section or tear recovery, lifting ergonomics and return to exercise.

CHRONIC PAIN: Physical therapy can help chronic pain patients maintain or improve daily function, as well as develop the skills needed to take control of their condition, increase activity and improve quality of life. Physical therapy for chronic pain patients can increase flexibility and strength, and improve mental health. The American College of Physicians recommendations treating chronic lower back pain with physical therapy, exercise, and yoga before opioids or surgery.
