Get back to running, lifting, and moving — without bracing for a leak

"Just stop running" isn't a treatment plan. If your body hasn't been the same since pregnancy, an injury, or just months of pushing through, we build the actual plan back.

You might be experiencing

  • Leaking during running, jumping, or lifting
  • Pelvic pressure or heaviness during workouts
  • Feeling "not ready," even after being medically cleared
  • Being told to simply stop the activities you love

If that's you, there's a real way back — request an appointment or call us.

Why this happens

Getting back to high-impact movement takes more than time off — it takes your pelvic floor and core coordinating properly under real load. Without that retraining, symptoms tend to show up exactly where you'd expect: at higher mileage, heavier weights, or more explosive movements.

How we treat it

We build a real, individualized return-to-activity progression — testing how your body tolerates load, retraining coordination under pressure, and progressing you back toward running, lifting, or whatever sport you're working to return to, rather than handing you a generic timeline.

Going to see Jill is my favorite thing that I do for myself. I work as a personal trainer, and I love that Jill does this for me. The improvement I've made in my core strength is evident — this is the most control I've ever had in my core, even pre-pregnancy.

Common questions

I was told to just stop running — is that really the answer?
Not usually. In most cases the goal is retraining your body to tolerate running well, not avoiding it indefinitely.
How long until I can run again?
It depends on your starting point and goals, but most patients see meaningful progress within several weeks of focused work.
Do you work with weightlifters and CrossFitters too?
Yes — we regularly work with women returning to all kinds of strength and high-impact training, not just running.
What if I'm not postpartum, just dealing with this from training?
That's a common reason to come in too — these symptoms aren't exclusive to pregnancy or postpartum.
