Not Just Pregnancy and Postpartum

Women's Health Rehabilitation at Impulse Physiotherapy is often assumed to be about childbirth alone — it isn't. We support women through pregnancy and postpartum recovery, but also through menopause-related joint pain and stiffness, osteoporosis-related musculoskeletal problems, neck and back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and recovery after gynaecological and breast surgery. The common thread is musculoskeletal and pelvic health issues that present differently in women, and are treated by physiotherapists trained specifically in that difference.

Some conditions we treat — pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary incontinence, chronic pelvic pain — sit at the overlap between this page and our dedicated Pelvic Rehabilitation service, including Kegel Throne therapy. If pelvic floor symptoms are your main concern, that page goes into more depth; this page covers the fuller picture of women's musculoskeletal health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Women's Health Rehabilitation at Impulse Physiotherapy, Yelahanka.

Scope of Care

Does Women's Health Rehabilitation only focus on pregnancy and postpartum care?

No. We support women through every stage of life — pregnancy and postpartum concerns, menopause-related joint pain and stiffness, osteoporosis-related musculoskeletal problems, neck and back pain, pelvic girdle pain, urinary incontinence, pelvic floor dysfunction, chronic pelvic pain, and other musculoskeletal conditions unique to women.

What conditions are treated under Women's Health Rehabilitation?

Pregnancy-related back and pelvic pain, postpartum recovery, diastasis recti, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic floor weakness, chronic pelvic pain, painful intercourse in selected cases, menopause-related musculoskeletal problems, osteoporosis-related pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, lymphedema, core weakness, and postural dysfunction.

Do you offer only treatment, or also preventive women's wellness programmes?

Both. We provide preventive programmes for pelvic floor health, core strengthening, menopause fitness, osteoporosis prevention, posture correction, safe exercise guidance, and women's wellness education, alongside treatment for existing conditions.

Pregnancy & Postpartum

Do you offer antenatal exercise programmes?

Yes. We provide individualised antenatal exercise programmes to improve strength, flexibility, posture, breathing, pelvic floor function, labour preparation and overall fitness during pregnancy, after medical clearance from your obstetrician.

When should I start physiotherapy after delivery?

The ideal time depends on your delivery, recovery, and your obstetrician's advice. Gentle rehabilitation may begin within the first few weeks after a normal delivery, while rehabilitation after a Caesarean section usually begins after medical clearance.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Do you provide rehabilitation after women's surgeries?

Yes. We provide rehabilitation following Caesarean section, hysterectomy, breast surgery and post-mastectomy recovery, lymphedema, and other gynaecological surgeries. Treatment includes pain relief, scar management, posture correction, pelvic floor strengthening, core rehabilitation, mobility restoration and return to daily activities.

Sessions & Team

Are sessions conducted in groups or individually?

Most sessions are one-to-one for personalised care. Small-group antenatal and postnatal fitness sessions may be organised based on patient demand.

How many sessions are usually required?

Initial assessment is one session. General Women's Health Rehabilitation typically needs a minimum of 7 sessions. Kegel Throne Therapy needs a minimum of 15 sessions. Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation usually needs 15 to 20 sessions, depending on progress.

Is Kegel Throne Therapy available through Women's Health Rehabilitation?

Yes. Kegel Throne Therapy is offered for selected patients after clinical evaluation, and may be recommended for pelvic floor weakness, urinary incontinence, postpartum rehabilitation and selected pelvic health conditions.

Is the Women's Health team different from the Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation team?

No. Women's Health Rehabilitation and Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation are delivered by the same trained physiotherapists, with multidisciplinary support from Gynaecologists, Physicians, Orthopaedicians, Paediatricians when required, and other specialists.

Menopause & Osteoporosis

What does menopause rehabilitation involve?

Menopause rehabilitation helps women stay active, independent and pain-free during and after menopause. It may include joint, muscle and back pain management; bone health and osteoporosis prevention; pelvic floor rehabilitation for urinary leakage and pelvic organ prolapse; balance and fall prevention; strength, flexibility and weight-bearing exercise programmes; posture correction and spinal health; and functional rehabilitation to improve mobility and quality of life, coordinated with your treating physician or gynaecologist. Physiotherapy does not treat hormonal changes such as hot flashes directly, but regular exercise and rehabilitation can improve overall wellbeing, sleep, fatigue and functional health.

Is osteoporosis rehabilitation for before or after a fracture?

Both. Before a fracture, it focuses on weight-bearing and resistance exercises, balance and gait training, fall-risk assessment, posture correction, and education on safe movement and lifting. After a fracture, it focuses on pain management, progressive rehabilitation, muscle strengthening, walking and functional training, restoration of independence, and prevention of future fractures.

When should women consider menopause rehabilitation?

There is no fixed age. An assessment is worth considering for women entering perimenopause (commonly in their 40s) or who have reached menopause, and especially for those with joint pain or stiffness, urinary leakage or pelvic floor weakness, osteopenia or osteoporosis, a fragility fracture, poor balance or recurrent falls, or early or surgical menopause. Early assessment often helps prevent long-term complications.

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation in Detail

Do you provide rehabilitation after mastectomy and for lymphedema?

Yes. Depending on your surgeon's recommendations, this may include gentle range-of-motion exercises, shoulder rehabilitation, posture correction, scar mobility techniques, manual lymphatic drainage where clinically indicated, compression therapy guidance coordinated with the treating surgeon or lymphedema specialist, and functional strengthening for return to daily activities. Every programme is individualised to your condition and stage of recovery.

When can rehabilitation begin after surgery?

Timing depends on the surgery and your surgeon's clearance. After Caesarean section, gentle breathing, mobility and pelvic floor exercises may begin early, with structured rehabilitation over the following weeks. After hysterectomy, rehabilitation usually starts after medical clearance, progressing gradually to core and pelvic floor work. After mastectomy, gentle shoulder mobility and posture exercises often begin early, with progressive rehabilitation based on wound healing and any ongoing cancer treatment.

Do you provide scar management?

Yes, following adequate wound healing and medical clearance. This may include scar mobility techniques, soft tissue mobilisation, silicone therapy guidance where appropriate, therapeutic taping where indicated, stretching and mobility exercises, and education on scar care and home exercises.

Group Classes & Access

Do you offer antenatal or postnatal group classes?

Yes, depending on demand — antenatal exercise programmes, postnatal recovery programmes, pelvic floor strengthening sessions, back care and posture education, and baby-carrying ergonomics. Each batch is typically limited to 4 to 8 participants for personalised attention. One-to-one sessions are also available.

Do I need a referral from a gynaecologist?

No, you can consult our physiotherapy team directly. Whenever clinically indicated, your care is coordinated with our Gynaecologist, General Surgeon, Physician and Orthopaedician for accurate diagnosis and comprehensive rehabilitation.

Are home visits available after delivery?

Yes. Many new mothers find travelling difficult in the early postpartum period, so home physiotherapy is available — subject to therapist availability and service area — for post-Caesarean rehabilitation, pelvic floor rehabilitation, back and neck pain, diastasis recti rehabilitation, mobility training and general postpartum recovery. Home visit charges are higher than clinic consultation charges.

Team, Assessment & Timing

Who performs the diastasis recti assessment, and what is evaluated?

The assessment is performed by our Women's Health Physiotherapist. It may evaluate separation of the abdominal muscles, core muscle strength and activation, pelvic floor muscle function, posture and breathing pattern, scar assessment if post-Caesarean, and functional movement or daily activity limitations. Consultation with our Gynaecologist, General Surgeon, Physician or Orthopaedician is available whenever clinically indicated.

Do I need a doctor's clearance before joining postnatal rehabilitation?

Most women can undergo an initial physiotherapy assessment directly. Doctor's clearance is recommended before starting structured postnatal rehabilitation particularly after Caesarean section, instrumental delivery, high-risk pregnancy, significant perineal tears, or medical or surgical complications. If required, our team can coordinate with your treating obstetrician or gynaecologist before starting your programme.

Are antenatal and postnatal classes conducted regularly?

Individual consultations are available throughout the week. Small-group antenatal and postnatal sessions run periodically based on registrations and demand, typically with 4 to 8 participants per batch for personalised attention. Contact us for the current batch schedule.

Do you coordinate with my own obstetrician or surgeon?

Yes, with your consent. Our physiotherapy team can coordinate with your treating obstetrician, gynaecologist, general surgeon, orthopaedician or physician whenever required — including reviewing medical advice and discussing rehabilitation goals — so your physiotherapy programme complements your ongoing medical or surgical treatment.

Common Concerns

Can I continue Kegel Throne Therapy during pregnancy?

Kegel Throne Therapy is generally not recommended during pregnancy unless specifically advised by your treating obstetrician and women's health physiotherapist. During pregnancy, pelvic floor rehabilitation is usually performed using safe, individualised exercises and education rather than chair-based electromagnetic therapy. Following delivery, Kegel Throne Therapy may be considered after appropriate medical assessment and clearance.

Can rehabilitation continue during chemotherapy or other cancer treatment?

Yes, in many cases rehabilitation can safely continue under medical supervision. Exercise programmes are individualised based on overall health, cancer treatment stage, fatigue levels, blood counts, surgical recovery, and the treating oncologist's recommendations, aiming to maintain mobility, reduce stiffness, improve function, manage fatigue and enhance quality of life while ensuring safety.

Is osteoporosis rehabilitation only done in the clinic?

No. Most patients benefit from a combination of supervised in-clinic rehabilitation, a personalised home exercise programme, balance and fall-prevention training, strengthening and weight-bearing exercises, and lifestyle and ergonomic advice, with regular follow-up to ensure exercises are performed correctly and adjusted as strength and confidence improve.

Consent & Cost

Is an internal pelvic examination mandatory?

No. Internal pelvic examination is performed only when clinically indicated, by a trained physiotherapist or gynaecologist, after informed consent. Patients may decline the examination, and alternative external assessments are available where appropriate.

How much does Women's Health Rehabilitation cost?

Women's Health Physiotherapy is ₹1,500 per session, with a discounted package price of ₹1,200 per session. Additional promotional sessions may be offered during special campaigns. Kegel Throne Therapy package details are discussed after clinical assessment.

Can I request a female physiotherapist?

Yes. Female patients may request treatment by a female physiotherapist, subject to availability.

Do I need a doctor's referral?

No referral is required — you can book directly. We also accept patients referred by gynaecologists, obstetricians, orthopaedic surgeons and physicians from other hospitals.

Impulse Physiotherapy is open 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM, all days of the week.
