Summer Postpartum Yoga Program
An article by Shelagh Haynes
Comments Off on Summer Postpartum Yoga Program New Moms – do you want to:
– reconnect to your core after giving birth?
– learn new postural strategies in your new, postpartum body?
– reduce your neck/upper back/shoulder pain that comes from breastfeeding and carrying your little one?
– prevent future incidence of incontinence and/or prolapse?
OC3 will be offering a summer session of its postpartum yoga program for new Moms. The program will take place on Mondays, from 1:30-2:30pm in the new, upstairs portion of the clinic. As part of the program, each participant undergoes an individual functional assessment with registered physiotherapist and yoga instructor, Shelagh Haynes, followed by 8 weeks of small group yoga sessions, just for postpartum ladies. The best part is that it is all covered by most private health insurance plans!
There are only 5 spaces available, so call 613-230-7891 to register before they’re all filled!
