The Mummy MOT®
Postpartum Recovery
After having a baby, up to half of us mums experience a weakness in either our tummy or pelvic floor area, which can create instability and affect core strength.
The Mummy MOT® is a comprehensive postpartum check-up for new mothers 6-weeks after delivery and beyond. We’ll assess the strength, activation, and function of your abdominal and pelvic floor muscles following childbirth.
The Mummy MOT is recommended for mums who are 6-8 weeks postbirth, following both vaginal & C-section deliveries. However, it is appropriate for any woman who has carried or given birth to a child in her lifetime.
What is the Mummy MOT®?
The Mummy MOT® is a 90-minute assessment that includes:
Full postural and musculoskeletal screen
Diastasis recti abdominis (tummy gap) assessment
Pelvic floor muscle assessment
C-section and episiotomy scar
Screening of bladder, bowel, and sexual function
Functional movement screen
Return to exercise & sports readiness
Mums need to bend, squat, and lift, so we provide a tailored postpartum chiropractic rehabilitation plan and functional exercises for you to help manage the physical motherhood demands on your recovering body.
