The Postpartum Pathways Program at PIH
Intimate Health and Park Integrative Health™ have developed a unique program designed to support mothers/birthing individuals during their postpartum journey.
What is the Postpartum Pathways Program at PIH?
While prenatal care receives ample attention, postnatal support is often lacking. After their 6-week postpartum checkup, many individuals face a challenging reality — the stressors of life, coupled with a lack of ongoing medical and emotional support, can leave individuals feeling isolated and overwhelmed during their postpartum journey.
The Postpartum Pathways Program at Park Integrative Health™, in collaboration with Intimate Health, is a multidisciplinary program dedicated to providing care during the postpartum period. This program empowers the mother/birthing individual during the transition from postnatal care and supports them as they experience all the changes — physical, mental, and emotional — that postpartum brings. Through integrative and science-backed approaches, this program offers patients different pathways of care depending on their areas of challenge and concerns. Ultimately, this program prioritizes the mother’s/birthing individual’s well-being and enables them to focus on their own health and wellness.
When should I seek support from the Postpartum Pathways Program?
Whether you’re just beginning your postpartum journey or you’ve been postpartum for a while now, this program is designed to support anyone as they transition through the mental, physical, and emotional experience of being postpartum. This program takes a collaborative approach to care, placing you, the patient, at the center. We want to empower you to take control of your health and well-being as you undergo any challenges that may come your way postpartum.
What should I expect from the Postpartum Pathways Program?
You can expect to receive collaborative care, personalized treatment plans, help with any physical recovery, mental health screening and support, and nutrition counselling. This program focuses on five treatment pathways, including:
Kegel strong — Emsella and physical therapy to strengthen the pelvic floor
V-confidence — vaginal rejuvenation (episiotomy scar management / vaginal trauma management)
Mental therapeutics — Mental health treatment for postpartum mood disorders
Physical healing — C-Section scar treatment
Aligned and empowered — Osteopath / Chiropractor / Naturopath treatments to support physical and emotional healing
A single pathway or a combination of pathways may be recommended depending on the diversity of the mother’s/birthing individual’s needs.
