Pregnancy is an incredible journey- but it doesn't have to come with pain or physical limitations. At Foundation Physical Therapy, we specialize in prenatal physical therapy designed to help you move better, feel stronger, and prepare your body for a smoother birth and postpartum recovery.
Whether you're dealing with back pain, pelvic pressure, or simply want to stay active and supported, we are here to help you thrive through every trimester.
