From 24th week of pregnancy onwards (in German)

Our physical therapists have many years of ex­perience and addit­ional training in pre­para­tion for child­birth, post­natal re­cupera­tion, and pelvic floor care. Physio­therapy exercises im­prove your under­standing of your own body.

Especially at this time above all it is im­portant to pay parti­cular atten­tion to your body and to im­prove your overall well­being during preg­nancy. This can be achie­ved by shar­pening your aware­ness of your body, posture, the way you move, muscle tone, and the way you breathe. Guidance on re­cupera­tion in the post­natal period comple­tes the range of ser­vices offered.

When the baby is growing inside your body, this is a time of heightened aware­ness – time for your­self, and for you and your baby together.

Topics covered

  • Working with your body – mobilization, im­proving the way you move, preven­ting edema, day-to-day routines, exer­cises for well­being, general condi­tion, etc.
  • The function of the pelvic floor: getting to know it – making it work for you – relaxing
  • Breathing – basics of breathing, be­coming aware of the move­ment and direc­tion of your breathing, breathing before and during child­birth or Cesarean section.
  • Body awareness and relaxa­tion
  • Things you can do to make childbirth easier – breathing assistance, posi­tioning the pelvis for delivery
