Cesarean recovery is the heart of this practice. Related pelvic and perinatal care is available to anyone in the Asheville area who needs it.
Preparation before surgery, in-home visits within days of discharge, and a full rebuild of your core and pelvic floor — all following your surgeon's protocol.
For all birth types. Pelvic floor rehabilitation, core rebuilding, and guidance for feeding and carrying postures that stop hurting your back.
Pelvic girdle and low back pain, diastasis prevention, and preparation for birth — whether you're planning a cesarean or a vaginal delivery.
Scar tissue mobilization and desensitization, numbness and tightness around the incision, and restoring real abdominal function.
Leaking, urgency, frequency, and incomplete emptying — common after birth and surgery, and highly treatable.
Pelvic organ prolapse, painful intercourse, and persistent pelvic pain at any stage of life, including perimenopause.
A cesarean cuts through seven layers of tissue, including the abdominal wall. It is the most commonly performed major surgery in the country — and the only one that routinely sends people home with no rehabilitation plan at all.
Rehabilitation typically ordered as part of standard post-surgical care. You were told to rest for six weeks — but nobody told you how.
No driving after abdominal surgery. No waiting room with a newborn. We work on the bed you actually sleep in and the stairs you actually climb.
Vital signs and post-surgical red flag screening at every visit. Someone qualified checking on you in the window where complications happen.
The same person from pre-surgical prep through your return to lifting and exercise. No aides, no shared sessions, no starting over.
Most people meet a physical therapist months after their cesarean, if ever. This program starts before the surgery and picks back up in your home within days of discharge.
Built around your body, your surgery and your surgeon's protocol — not a generic six-week timeline.
Most serious complications after a cesarean show up in the first days and weeks — often after you've already been discharged. You should not have to guess what's normal. Here is what to watch for in the hospital and at home, before our first visit.
Do not wait, do not drive yourself, and do not wait for an appointment.
If you are having thoughts of harming yourself or your baby, you can also call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, any time of day. This is more common than most people are told, and it is treatable. You are not a bad parent for feeling it.
Your OB, midwife or surgeon — not a message left for next week.
You are allowed to ask every one of these. Write the answers down.
What to pay attention to while you wait for our first visit.
This page is general education, not medical advice, and it does not replace the instructions your own surgical team gave you. When something feels wrong, trust that instinct and call. You are never being dramatic by checking.
I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy and a 2015 graduate of the New York Institute of Technology. I built Resilient Bloom around a conviction I couldn't let go of: women who undergo a cesarean deserve the same standard of rehabilitation as anyone else who has major surgery.
Right now they don't get it. They get a six-week checkup and a clearance. Nobody shows them how to get out of bed without bracing the incision. Nobody checks their vitals. Nobody is watching for the complications that send people back to the hospital.
So I go to them. I meet each person exactly where they are — at home, in the hardest weeks, with a newborn on their lap — and build the recovery around their body, their surgery and their surgeon's protocol.
We talk through your surgery date or where you are in recovery, and confirm this is the right fit.
Weeks before your due date, I come to you and prepare both you and your caregivers for surgery and the recovery that follows.
Within days of coming home. Vitals, red flag screening, full evaluation, and a plan you can start that day.
Ongoing visits at home until you're back to lifting, moving and living the way you want to.
Book a free 15-minute call. We'll talk through where you are — pregnant, scheduled, or already home — and figure out what you need.
