💡 What if you could provide your patients with more options for recovery earlier than the standard of care? Across the country, patients recovering from cesarean delivery are sent home without early rehab or movement guidance. For some, even the surgery itself is painful: 11% to 14.6% experience pain during a C-section when anesthesia doesn't work effectively. Many more struggle with preventable pain, fatigue, and loss of function after birth. As surgery recovery professionals, we see how early rehab can change these outcomes. Yet, too often, clinicians are led to believe that "there isn't enough evidence" to support recovery care during the first six weeks after surgical birth. This webinar is an opportunity to change that. Join us to learn how to use evidence-informed tools and strategies that expand the movement choices patients have during pregnancy and early recovery so that every patient can participate in their healing and not just endure it. 📅 From Data to Delivery: Launching Your Virtual Rehab Practice Before and After Birth 🕖 Tuesday, November 4, 2025 at 7 PM ET 🎁 Bonus for Attendees: All registrants will receive an evidence-informed movement guide that includes sample birth preparation and early recovery movements with explanations of their purpose and benefits. The guide helps clinicians expand patient options for movement, autonomy, and participation in recovery. 🩺Purpose with impact: Thirty percent of proceeds will fund research on early rehabilitation after surgical births, including perineal repairs and cesarean deliveries. Research on early rehab after birth will help every clinician who has been told there isn't enough evidence to start sooner. If you're ready to lead the change in how early recovery care after birth begins, join the movement. REGISTER HERE

Diastasis Rectus Abdominis training is everywhere. Courses, books, and programs are being sold to both providers and the public. But if that information was enough, why are so many women still confused and stuck in slow recovery? In this episode I talk with Antony Lo, a physiotherapist from Australia who is known for challenging the way we think about abdominal muscle separation. He explains why memorizing anatomy, isolating muscles, changing breathing patterns, and prescribing low-level exercises may not be the best place to start. “By reframing what having DRA means, we have a chance of changing the experience for millions of women.” Antony teaches what that looks like in practice and why simple shifts in how we assess and guide movement can make a huge difference. If you think you already know everything about DRA, this conversation will push you to look again. And when his training is offered in your region, you will not want to miss it.

Some clinicians believe that any rehab setting outside of an outpatient women’s health clinic provides subpar care to mothers during pregnancy and after birth. But what happens when hospitalists, OB/GYNs, nurses, and other maternal health providers recognize the value of having a rehab professional on their care team during a high-risk pregnancy admission, or when a new mother is experiencing functional impairments before hospital discharge? What do you do when local providers want to start offering rehab services in the home within the first weeks of postpartum recovery, while mothers are still healing and bonding with their newborn? How do you respond when your hospital system wants to extend perinatal triage services through telehealth rehab to reduce postpartum readmissions and connect patients to earlier guidance on mobility and recovery? Would you say, “No. Refer your patients to me when they’re ready for outpatient women’s health rehab.” Of course not. In our monthly meeting, designed for Perinatal Health Specialist Certification members, we will answer live questions on how to build maternal rehab services across diverse settings to meet patients across the continuum of care and improve maternal health outcomes earlier than the current standard. Topics will include how to identify the right setting for the care a patient is seeking, strategies for building referral networks across disciplines, billing considerations, collaboration with other providers, and practical approaches to improving maternal function and recovery with earlier access to rehab.
