PRENATAL PHYSICAL THERAPY IN FREDERICK, MD

Support Your Body, Ease Discomfort, and Prepare for Birth With Confidence.

Pregnancy changes everything about your body. At pelvRX, we provide prenatal physical therapy in Frederick that mothers trust to prepare them for labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery.

WHAT IS PRENATAL PHYSICAL THERAPY?

Prenatal physical therapy is specialized care designed to support your body throughout pregnancy. As you progress through each trimester, you may experience back pain, pelvic pressure, hip discomfort, core weakness, sciatica, or difficulty staying active.

At pelvRX, our prenatal physical therapist helps expecting mothers move more comfortably, build strength, improve pelvic floor function, and prepare for the physical demands of birth and aftercare.

Conditions We Treat

PREGNANCY-RELATED BACK PAIN

We help address low back pain, stiffness, and movement limitations that can develop as your posture, center of gravity, and core support change during pregnancy.

PELVIC GIRDLE PAIN

Pelvic girdle pain, pubic symphysis discomfort, and SI joint irritation can make walking, rolling over, going up stairs, and daily movement difficult. Physical therapy can help reduce strain and improve support.

HIP PAIN & SCIATICA

We treat pregnancy-related hip pain, nerve irritation, and radiating symptoms with targeted mobility work, strengthening, positioning strategies, and hands-on care.

CORE & PELVIC FLOOR SUPPORT

Pregnancy places added demand on your core and pelvic floor, and therapy can help improve coordination, strength, and awareness before delivery.

LABOR & DELIVERY PREPARATION

We provide education, movement strategies, breathing techniques, and guidance on positioning to help you feel more prepared for labor and delivery.

SAFE EXERCISE DURING PREGNANCY

Our pregnancy physical therapy services help mothers-to-be stay active safely with exercise modifications tailored to each trimester, symptom level, and personal goals.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

"Absolutely love! 5 months postpartum and I feel so strong and capable of more than what I thought I could be. Dr. Kelly and Dr. Priya provide such a personal experience to your care and have a variety of options for their strength training and pelvic floor and Pilates reformer. All to help you get strong after pregnancy. I didn’t go during my pregnancy, but plan to next time so I can maintain the strength I have gained coming here."

"I love Dr. Kelly! She was very knowledgable and helpful to integrate working out while pregnant. She always listened to my concerns and answered questions when I had them. Her suggestions helped ease pain as well as stay strong before delivery! 10/10 would recommend Pelvic Floor PT with her! Although, I would trust her with other physical issues if they were to arise! You won't be disappointed!"

"Priya and Kelly were wonderful in helping me with my diastasis recti. Thanks to their support, I now have a stronger core and can better engage those muscles to help prevent back pain. They truly listen and are committed to helping you reach your goals."
