“I completed Strong Expecting Mama during pregnancy and was excited to start Strong Healing Mama in early postpartum. For me having a program that allows me to actively work on recovering from giving birth was a must. I love that Strong Healing Mama works on breathing and gentle strength and stretching movements. It is my self-care right now and is easy to do between all the mama duties for the baby and toddler!”

YES! Our program is designed to address pelvic floor dysfunction through exercise and education. I am a certified pelvic floor physical therapist with experience treating hundreds of women with pelvic floor issues. The key to the pelvic floor during this time frame is rebuilding connection with breath and the pelvic floor and those exercises are the major focus of this program.
Each class should take between 15-20 minutes in total depending on how many reps, sets and rest breaks you take. I encourage every mom to go through each class at least twice per week to experience results. Once enrolled, you will be instructed on specifics of how to progress through the program to maximize your progress and success.
YES! It is actually extremely helpful to do safe movement in the first six weeks. It can minimize pain and accelerate healing by doing the correct activation and mobility exercises. Then when you are cleared at 6 weeks postpartum you will have already started to build a strong foundation that you can build off of when progressing to more dynamic movements. I am a certified pelvic floor physical therapist and have specialized in this area because I want to help moms move safely right from the start. A lot of the exercises you can do from your bed or in your bedroom.
YES! Both c-section and vaginal deliveries undergo severe core and pelvic floor weakness so both will benefit from the brain-body strength exercises instructed throughout the program. No matter how you deliver, your body experiences a lot of physiological changes so addressing those changes through exercise is very necessary.
Anyone that is between 2-8 weeks postpartum is a good candidate for the program. If you are past 6 weeks postpartum when you are ready to start, then I would advise you begin with the Strong Core Mama Program because it is designed for that time frame and beyond.
YES! Check out the blog on Diastasis Recti to learn about how the Strong Healing Mama program can heal your abdominal gap.The whole program uses evidence-based methods to prevent and minimize severe diastasis recti. Each class emphasizes restoring your brain’s connection to your core in order to prevent loss of function of your abs while also protecting your pelvic floor. A common pitfall of many “mom tummy” programs is that they don’t take into account the pelvic floor and how it should properly be working alongside the core in order to heal diastasis recti. Then I end up seeing these patients in the clinic because they now have pelvic floor issues caused by these types of programs. Seeing this so often is one of the major reasons I wanted to create this program!
There are 2 ways to contact Dr. Anna when subscribed. First, you can ask questions on all of the exercises and both Dr. Anna and other moms enrolled can answer your questions.
