Birth Preparation
A Message From Marci Silverberg, Owner And Founder Of Pelvic Path Physical Therapy
Pregnancy is one of the most amazing and life-changing events a woman can have. It might also be challenging to take care of yourself during this time. Pelvic floor irregularities, on the other hand, are rather frequent during this period and can be easily addressed with no effort. Taking care of these problems when they emerge will spare you years of discomfort and incontinence. It is estimated that during pregnancy…
- Pelvic girdle pain affects 45% of pregnant women. This can result in daily and/or sexual discomfort.
- Up to 70% of pregnant women suffer from stress urinary incontinence.
- The following shipment…
- During the postpartum period, 35% of new moms develop stress urinary incontinence (leaking while coughing, sneezing, lifting, leaping, and so on).
- Diastasis recti abdominis affects more than half of pregnant women. (A diastasis rectus abdominis occurs when the abdominal muscles are separated from their central tendon, resulting in Birth Preparation, stress urine incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse.)
- After a normal pregnancy/delivery, 20% of first-time mothers sustain significant pelvic floor muscle injuries.
- 25% of women who suffer pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain experience pain after giving delivery.
These problems are not confined to vaginal birthing women. Pregnancy hormones may cause the body’s ligaments to relax, placing mom at risk for pelvic rotations even if she had a c-section. Scar tissue following the c-section may also impede the pelvic floor muscles’ ability to relax or contract, resulting in total discomfort and incontinence. Pelvic Path Physical Therapy can check abdominal muscle function, overall posture, scar tissue mobility, and pelvic floor muscle activity in great detail. When the root cause of the problem is discovered, a tailored treatment plan can be devised to address it, allowing you to resume living the life you desire.
Don’t Put It Off Any Longer; Pelvic Path Physical Therapy Can Help.
- Tired of leaking pee (incontinence) when jogging, jumping, or going about your everyday activities?
- Do you have ongoing postpartum back, hip, or pelvic pain?
- Feeling self-conscious, frustrated, or disillusioned after the birth of your child, certain you'll never regain control of your body?
- Is sex uncomfortable or inconvenient for you?
- Frustrated because other PT methods haven't worked, or unsure what to try?
- Are you looking for a long-term, natural approach to permanently eliminate these symptoms (without medications or surgery)?
You've Come To The Right Place If You Said "Yes" To Any Of These Questions!
Many postpartum women are subjected to unnecessary suffering in Pelvic Path Physical Therapy because they are informed…
- Your doctor suggests that you rest for six weeks before returning to your normal activities. You are still experiencing issues after a few days, weeks, months, or even years.
- If you watch some YouTube workout videos, you'll rapidly get back in shape, but those sessions will ache and cause leaks, leaving you sad and disheartened.
- After childbirth, pain or abdominal separation is "natural," and "everyone leaks" or has bladder control issues as they age.
- Everything will be OK if you take some painkillers.
- There are just three options: medicine, surgery, or "dealing with it."
The Reality Is…
- It makes no difference whether you sleep or not. You may feel better temporarily, but when you return to work, you will still have pelvic pain, leaking, and other postpartum symptoms (as I'm sure you have!).
- While having prolonged pain or urine leaks after pregnancy... or even as you get older... is NOT NORMAL.
- Pain relievers are addictive, hazardous, and can cause a variety of other health issues.
- Medicine, surgery, and injections are not the only possibilities for treatment. They are the only options presented to you by your doctor.
Pelvic Path Physical Therapy Can Help You Get Back to Doing What You Love (Even if It’s Been 20 Years!) Without the Need for Pills, Pads, or Surgery if You’re Tired of Having Painful Sex, a Mommy Tummy, or Chronic Birth Preparation.
You must select the greatest healthcare provider for your unique requirements. If you don’t, you risk having unneeded surgery, developing a drug or painkiller addiction… or living the rest of your life with deteriorating symptoms.
Leakage, abdominal separation, pelvic floor dysfunction, and postpartum hip/back/pelvic discomfort must be treated utilizing the “least-invasive,” most natural manner to minimize recurrence.
For recuperation, a provider who understands how the body operates is necessary. Both pregnancy and postpartum transform our bodies. We must address the neck/back/diaphragm/core/pelvic floor/pelvis, posture, strength, and body use to properly recover. There’s more to it than just Kegels!
To guarantee a thorough recovery, we must treat more than just the symptoms. You must collaborate with a specialist who is willing to investigate the root reasons for your symptoms and dysfunction. That is when you will receive a LONG-TERM solution to your postpartum issues.
At Pelvic Path Physical Therapy we’ve created a 3 step process to get rid of your pain AND make sure it doesn’t come back again.
STEP 1 WE WOULD LIKE TO HEAR YOUR STORY.
I’m fed up with our healthcare system. You have to wait weeks, if not months, for an appointment to meet with the doctors for 10 minutes before they rush to the next patient, leaving you scratching your head and thinking, “What just happened?”
The bulk of physical therapy facilities function in this manner. They are hurried and inattentive; your therapist does not have time to learn about your goals or engage with you one-on-one. That is why we work in such disparate ways!
That is why we are interested in hearing your tale first.
We recognize that no two people are alike after successfully working with several postpartum moms. Each individual has a distinct body, history, and pain and symptom patterns.
As a result, we will have an open chat as a first step and invite you to tell your tale. We’ll have a greater grasp not only of what’s wrong with your body but also of how it’s hurting your life.
STEP #2 - FIND OUT WHY THE PAIN WITH BIRTH PREPARATION STARTED
Many people can express what is wrong with their bodies using a medical phrase or diagnosis. Perhaps it was prescribed by their doctor, perhaps tests revealed the condition, or perhaps you learned about it online.
Prolapse, Diastasis Recti, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, Incontinence, Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain, or Hip/Back/Pelvic Pain may have been diagnosed.
Your only options were most likely to relax, take medication, or wait.
These solutions may provide temporary relief, but they do not address the root source of the problem.
Each person’s source of pain or symptoms is unique. Nobody experiences the same issue as someone else as a result of the same item.
Pelvic Path Physical Therapy purpose is to treat the root cause of your discomfort so that it not only goes away but stays away!
We recognize that you may remain dubious of Integrative Physical Therapy. As a result, we developed a low-cost Discovery/Screening Visit.
Our Discovery Visits are designed for clients who are suspicious, uncertain or have previously been disappointed. You will understand what is wrong and how long it will take to repair it during the Discovery Visit, and you will develop confidence that your condition can be resolved naturally!
STEP 3 REMOVE THE PROBLEM AND PREVENT IT FROM REAPPEARING
STEP 3 REMOVE THE PROBLEM AND PREVENT IT FROM REAPPEARING
This is when significant changes occur. We provide a customized strategy that allows you to…
…continue a physical activity (even running or jumping!) without the worry of resuming pain, stiffness, or bladder control problems.
…be able to communicate with your children and effortlessly lift and carry them.
…continue intimate connections with your spouse without worry or discomfort.
…return to your favorite sport (yoga, running, tennis, etc.).
You will reclaim your power, confidence, and sensuality as your body heals from the Diastasis Recti/Abdominal Separation and regains complete core strength.
Motivated individuals who desire to restore an active lifestyle are our ideal clients. (Even if they are incarcerated right now!)
Do you want to learn more about our availability and pricing before making a reservation?
You do not have to give up your hobbies or family life due to challenges that can be resolved.
You don’t have to sacrifice the game you love over problems that can be fixed.
Sincerely,
Marci Silverberg, MPT, PPCES, Owner and Founder

I love that Pelvic Path combines Shockwave Therapy with their Physical Therapy. I am being seen for Pelvic Floor Physical therapy, and the shockwave has been an incredible addition to my plan. It doesn't hurt, is very fast, and helps me get results faster. If you are looking for Physical Therapy + shockwave therapy in Marin County or San Rafael, I would highly recommend Pelvic Path in San Rafael.Posted on Annie DearTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Caitlin has been such a great support during my postpartum recovery from my third child. She designed a great progressing program, always adjusted to where I personally was stronger/weaker, and set me up for a smooth process of returning to running. The at home workouts often took about 15-20 min, which made it possible to stay consistent even during a busy time. I’m ready to get back to competitive racing thanks to her support.Posted on Marangely SantiagoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m in my early 30s, and I felt like I should be in my prime but instead I was struggling in ways I didn’t fully understand. Intimacy was painful, I felt disconnected from my body, and it started to affect my confidence and emotional well-being more than I ever expected. Working with Dr. Caitlin has been truly life-changing. She is kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, and she made me feel safe and supported from the very first session. She helped me understand that pelvic floor therapy isn’t just for postpartum recovery or injuries — lit’s for women at many stages of life. In just two sessions, I’ve already noticed real improvements, both physically and emotionally. I feel more connected to my body, more informed, and more hopeful. Dr. Caitlin has given me tools, insight, and reassurance that have made such a difference. If you’re a young woman struggling and feeling like something isn’t right, please know you’re not alone and this is your sign to seek pelvic floor therapy. I’m so grateful for Dr. Caitlin and can’t recommend her enough.Posted on Lori RichardsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nicole and Marci are knowledgeable, warm, skilled, and a pleasure to work with. Their PT model takes a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating the body's distress in relation to lifestyle and goals. Every session has helped me with pelvic floor issues, neck issues, and other alignments I didn't even know were connected to my overall physical health. I leave the sessions feeling physically better than when I walked in. I also feel heard, understood, and equipped with exercises that continue my healing and my pain management goals. It goes beyond that. Working with Pelvic Path PT, I've come to understand how to care for my body as I advance in age. The women at Pelvic Path are master body workers, experts in the field, and down-to-earth great people. The office is a welcoming place, with solid professional care and a cozy environment.Posted on Cooke HofeleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Pelvic Path. Caitlyn is completely professional and kind. She has exceeded my expectations. She is helping me address an issue that has been bothering me for years. I only wish I had come to her sooner!Posted on Lauren SchiermeyerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend the Pelvic Path for any kind of physical therapy needs. I work with Marci who is absolutely amazing in all the ways. She is super knowledgeable, intuitive, explains things very clearly, and most importantly yields great results! I felt my body improve with every session and every week of practice. She was able to correct any bad technique I might pick up unknowingly in a week and get me back on track. The office space is lovely and the energy there is so positive and light that it is an appointment that you can look forward to. You are in very good hands with your physical therapy at the Pelvic Path.
