  • Zola - OPTimize Postpartum

    “I have been LOVING the program! Love that the videos are short & easily digestible, allows me to start and stop easily to get through each week. Has been really nice to watch them while breastfeeding. The key takeaways/summaries are nice too. I also like the associated handouts which I've been screenshotting to save to my phone. The website is well optimized for the phone which makes the use experience really seamless.”

  • Annon - OPTimize Postpartum

    “PT content was probably the area I was most in need of postpartum so also have been loving those videos. Especially having something to follow in the first 6 weeks is nice because i still wanted to get some movement in but didn't want to overdo it. Being able to do the deep core engagement early on felt really empowering. And my diastasis recti was totally healed at my 6 week check up 🎉”

  • Stacey - OPTimize Birth & Beyond

    There's so much conflicting information online about what you should or shouldn't do postpartum, and when you are already exhausted with a newborn, the last thing you want is to sift through it all. Having a week-by-week exercise and guidance plan that I trust makes all the difference—and the exercises have been so effective mentally and physically.

    I'm beyond grateful for this program and recommend it to every expecting or new mom I know. It's empowering, supportive, and practical - exactly what you need during such a transformative time!

    But if you are finding us after giving birth, you can still benefit from the information if you are within the first year postpartum. Pick and choose lessons from our postpartum resource library, which includes resources for:

    • Baby Feeding

    • Babies with Gas, Constipation or Reflux

    • Fostering your Bond & Parenting Confidence

    • Sensory Stimulation

    • Early Milestone Attainment

    • Pelvic Health

    • Cesarean Scar Healing (Massage & Desensitization)

    • Mental Health (Stress & Nervous System Regulation)

  • Yes! This guide was designed to OPTimize your postpartum experience. You’ll help your baby thrive and your body optimally recover by following our weekly activities, lifestyle recommendations and exercises.

  • Yes - this guide includes cesarean scar massage and mobilization strategies specifically for you. Plus, following the the guided weekly movement flows are not only safe for cesarean births but will foster an easier cesarean recovery.


    PS: your pelvic floor is not spared after a cesarean birth therefore all moms can benefit from the pelvic floor rehab components of this guide!

  • Yes! The developmental activities are priceless and even seasoned moms tell us they’ve learned so much from this guide.

    Additionally, your body will likely need even more care if you have given birth multiple times.

  • This is certainly an option! And can compliment PT or OT services nicely. However, we’ve worked with countless mothers who weren’t able to stick with the recommended treatment plan from their PT/OT due to time and financial constraints.

    Even if you do go through your insurance, there is often co-pays, deductibles, and surprise bills that make it challenging to continue.

    Our goal is to provide you a comprehensive, preventive support for both you and baby so you don’t need to seek out a PT, OT or both. And if problems do arise or you find you need more support, you also have access to scheduling a virtual visit with our PT or OT - eliminating the need to arrange childcare or bring baby with you to appointments.
