Over the course of the 6-week series, we'll delve into a range of topics to ensure a holistic approach to your wellbeing. Here's a glimpse into what we'll cover:

• Week One - Pelvic Care: Strengthen your pelvic floor and learn techniques to manage bladder and bowel habits, and returning to sex comfortably.

• Week Two - Spine Care: Take care of your spine, from the neck to the lumbar region, and learn baby lifting techniques to protect your lower back.

• Week Three - Chest Care: Nurture your neck, chest, and shoulders with movement, stretching, and strengthening. Learn strategies for managing mastitis and maintaining chest health for a comfortable feeding journey.

• Week Four - Core Care: Activate your core muscles and discuss diastasis recti (abdominal separation) for optimal recovery.
