\n
\nBut the 6-week checkup is not a strength test. It’s not a pelvic floor assessment. And it’s not a personalized return-to-exercise plan.
\n
\nFor many women, safe, intentional movement can begin sooner than you think. For others, 6 weeks is far too early for impact. The key isn’t a date on the calendar — it’s understanding what your body needs and how to progress strategically.
\n
\nJoin us for this free virtual workshop on Thursday, April 16, at 7:00 PM to learn what current evidence actually says about postpartum recovery and return to exercise.
\nIn this practical, evidence-informed session, you’ll learn:\n\nThis workshop is hosted by Carrie Pagliano Physical Therapy, an Arlington, VA-based practice specializing in advanced pelvic floor and orthopedic care for active women and moms who want to return to running, lifting, and sport without leaks or pain.
\n
