Pregnancy physiotherapy in Sydney CBD

Pregnancy changes your posture, relaxes your ligaments and shifts your centre of gravity week by week. At The Fix Program in Sydney CBD, pregnancy physiotherapy helps you move comfortably through every trimester and recover well after birth.

Our physiotherapists are trained in prenatal and postnatal care. We treat the causes of pregnancy pain — not just the symptoms — and show you safe exercises you can keep doing at home or between appointments.

What we treat

Pregnancy physiotherapy covers the common problems that arrive as your body adapts, including:

  • Back pain and pelvic girdle pain, including pain at the front of the pelvis and pubic bone
  • Pelvic pain and pelvic floor problems, including weakness, urgency and discomfort
  • Rib and mid-back pain as the rib cage expands
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome and hand tingling
  • Abdominal separation
  • Postnatal recovery, including scar healing, core retraining and return to exercise

If you are unsure whether your symptoms are normal, a pregnancy physiotherapy assessment will give you a clear picture and a plan.

Physio-led care, not a generic class

Every appointment is one-on-one with a physiotherapist. Your first visit is a full assessment: we take your history, check your posture and movement, look at your pelvic floor and abdominal muscles if needed, and explain what is driving your symptoms.

Treatment is hands-on where it helps, but the goal is lasting relief. We use:

  • Gentle joint realignment and soft-tissue release
  • Supportive taping and pelvic belts
  • Pelvic floor assessment and guided training
  • Safe, targeted exercises that fit your trimester or postnatal stage
  • Advice on desk set-up, sleep positions and everyday movements

Because we are physiotherapists, your health fund may rebate the session. We process claims on the spot through HICAPS, so you only pay the gap.

Postnatal physiotherapy in Sydney CBD

After birth, your body needs time and guidance to recover. Postnatal physiotherapy helps with pelvic floor recovery, abdominal separation, caesarean or perineal scar healing, and a safe return to exercise.

We recommend a full postnatal assessment around six weeks after birth, or earlier if you are struggling with pain, leakage or a sense that something is not right.Postnatal Pilates classes are also available when you are ready.

Desk workers and CBD appointments

Most of our pregnancy patients work in offices nearby. Long days of sitting can aggravate rib pain, pelvic girdle pain and pelvic floor strain. We are three minutes from Town Hall station, so you can be back at your desk within the hour. We will also show you small adjustments — screen height, standing breaks, safe stretches — that make a real difference during the workday.

Frequently asked questions about pregnancy physiotherapy

A pregnancy physiotherapist treats the muscle, joint and pelvic floor changes that come with pregnancy and after birth. That includes back pain, pelvic girdle pain, pubic bone pain, rib pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, abdominal separation and pelvic floor weakness. Treatment may include gentle joint realignment, massage, taping, pelvic support belts and a safe exercise program tailored to your trimester.

Yes. Our physiotherapists are trained in prenatal and postnatal care. Every treatment is gentle, modified to your stage of pregnancy, and explained before it begins. If you are starting exercise, we ask for medical clearance from your GP or obstetrician first.

No referral is needed. You can book directly online or by phone. Some private health funds may require a GP referral for rebates, so check with your fund if you are unsure.

Come as soon as you notice discomfort. Early treatment often stops small niggles from becoming bigger problems. For pelvic floor preparation, the second trimester is a useful time to start. We also see women right after birth for postnatal physiotherapy.

Yes. Pelvic floor assessment and training is a core part of what we do. We teach you how to correctly activate and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles to support your body during pregnancy, prepare for labour and recover well afterwards.

Gentle pelvic floor exercises can begin soon after birth. We recommend a full postnatal physiotherapy assessment around six weeks after labour, or once your obstetrician has cleared you.
