About this service
Description
In the postpartum family coaching group, you will receive information on the recovery of the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles after giving birth. You will receive instructions for exercising your pelvic floor and core muscles. We will show you how to take abdominal separation into account when exercising. You can take part in the postpartum family coaching group after your postpartum check-up at the maternity clinic, two months after giving birth. You are welcome to attend the postpartum group any time during the year following childbirth. The postpartum family coaching group takes approximately 1½ hours and can be arranged remotely or on site at the family centre or at the physiotherapy clinic. You can bring your child to the group on site. You can sign up for physiotherapy family coaching groups through Maisa. 1. Choose "Book Appointment" in the menu. 2. Choose"Appointment for Physiotherapy". 3. Choose a suitable family coaching group. The appointment automatically creates a link for those who have registered for the remote group, which is activated in Maisa 15 minutes before the booked group. Physiotherapy groups and private appointments are free of charge.
