Motherhood doesn't mean giving up on your goals
Reclaiming Women's Health
You deserve comprehensive care that takes your goals and active lifestyle seriously. Pregnancy and postpartum are an opportunity to improve your health for life.
At CONNECT, we help you navigate your pregnancy and postpartum journey back into physical activity, exercise, sport, and beyond.
Every Age, Every Stage
Women's Health isn't exclusively for women who are pregnant and postpartum.
At CONNECT we help women with a variety of diagnoses both before and after having kids (no matter how long it has been) reclaim their ability to achieve their active lifestyle goals.
This can range from leaking and incontinence to painful sex and pelvic girdle pain. If it happens down there, we treat it in here.

PELVIC FLOOR PHYSIOTHERAPY
Pelvic floor physiotherapy is not just for those who’ve been pregnant and had babies. Women of all ages deal with pelvic health concerns from urinary incontinence to persistent low back or hip pain that can impact their participation in physical activity and enjoyment of life.
Pelvic floor physiotherapy isn’t just about the pelvis. It’s about how those muscles make up one part of the whole core unit, and how that core unit can affect the entire body. It takes a closer look at how the pelvic floor may contribute to your symptoms and includes a holistic full-body approach to help address your concerns.
PREGNANCY & POSTPARTUM CARE
Physical activity during pregnancy is associated with better birth outcomes, improvement in back, hip and SIJ pain during pregnancy, and earlier recovery after birth. Activity doesn't have to stop at conception, we can help you stay active during your pregnancy, and return after birth!
With exercise guidance through pregnancy, labour and delivery prep, education, as well as postnatal care, you will have the groundwork to help you achieve your lifelong health and fitness goals.
WOMENS HEALTH PHYSIOTHERAPY
Women's Health doesn't always need to be addressed with an internal pelvic floor assessment. While internal assessments can help isolate a problem and completely assess the function of the pelvic floor, many cases can be managed without.
Women's Health Physiotherapy is an external-only approach to managing concerns like recurrent back and hip pain and leaking with exercise that still takes the thorough, whole-body approach of our regular assessments.
SMALL GROUP CLASSES
Postpartum small group classes run by a registered physiotherapist and designed to progress you through movements focusing on the pelvic floor, core and full body strength.
More information on our NewMomStrong and NewMomStrong(er) 2.0 classes can be found here.
DYNAMIC CORE FOR KIDS
Dynamic Core For Kids is a treatment approach to help parents and caregivers promote development of continence (potty training) and prevention of constipation in their neurodivergent or neurotypical children.
This is an external-only approach that starts with a thorough history, assessment of core and breathing strategies, and has a large focus on educating parents and caregivers around breathing and exercise strategies.
