What mamas are saying

★★★★★

  • A godsend!

    I found Origin when I was pregnant and wanted to stay in shape without aggravating my diastasis recti. I've worked on all my aches and pains during pregnancy (back pain, knee pain etc.). After having my baby, I came back to do pelvic floor work. It’s been a godsend!

  • Really helped my hips, neck, and knees rehabilitate!

    Best place ever! I am still going, I started 6 week postpartum and my son is almost 9 months! Really helped my hips, neck, and knees rehabilitate!
    -Hallie M.

  • Instrumental in my postpartum recovery

    Origin was instrumental in my postpartum recovery. I wish I knew about it when I was pregnant so I could better prepare my body for childbirth and postpartum recovery. Everyone who is pregnant or postpartum should pay a visit to this place, you won't regret it!
    -Elly S.

  • Gave me the tools I need to continue rehabbing myself at home as needed

    I just completed working with Origin after my c-section. I was experiencing core weakness postpartum and SI joint and hip pain, as well as tightness in my scar. As a professional dancer and dance teacher I had very specific goals to prepare me to return to work. They gave me the tools I need to continue rehabbing myself at home as needed. I would definitely recommend Origin for working through physical pain and weakness postpartum!

  • Helped me with every issue from pelvic floor to hips to elbows strain from lifting my baby

    If you're experiencing any discomfort post baby - can't recommend this place enough! They helped me with every issue from pelvic floor to hips to elbows strain from lifting my baby.

FAQ

  • Do I need any equipment?

    No just bring yourself, if you have a yoga mat that can make the experience more comfortable but all you need is yourself

  • How quickly will I be able to start working out again?

    Every body is different and the return to exercise can vary depending on how your body changed during pregnancy, what your postpartum recovery has looked like, and your mental health postpartum. It’s important to wait until you have your doctor’s clearance to start exercising again. Once you get the green light, we encourage you not to rush back to your pre-pregnancy workout. Caring for a newborn is exhausting, and exercising when you’re fatigued raises your chance of injury. Take it slow and listen to your body. If you need to rest, rest.

  • Is it possible to check for diastasis recti from home?

    We’ll show you how to do a self check at home or you can always go to a physical therapist virtually or in-person to have them check (or double check).
