Virtual Pregnancy & Postpartum Consultations

Personalized support for birth prep, postpartum prep, and postpartum recovery

You shouldn’t have to piece together your birth preparation and recovery from social media, Google searches, or rushed provider visits.

These consultations are designed to give you clear, personalized guidance for the stage you’re in—so you can stop guessing and start feeling confident in your next steps.

Whether you’re preparing for birth, planning for postpartum, or navigating recovery this session helps turn overwhelm into a clear, manageable plan.

Each consultation includes:

  • Review of your intake form and main concerns

Who These Sessions Are For

These consultations are ideal if you’re:

  • Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting information

  • Trying to “do everything right” but unsure what actually matters

  • Don’t have the long term support to address “root causes” but want strategies for temporary relief NOW


Birth Preparation Consultation

Best during the third trimester

For the mom who wants to feel prepared—not panicked.

Birth prep can quickly become overwhelming. One person says to stretch, another says not to. Social media makes it feel like there’s a perfect formula to avoid tearing or prevent a cesarean.

This session helps you focus on what is actually helpful for you.

Common topics include:

  • Fear around tearing or cesarean birth

  • Understanding the birth process

  • Pelvic floor anatomy and how it functions during birth

  • Labor positions and movement strategies

  • Breath and pushing mechanics

  • Perineal massage instruction

  • What’s worth focusing on—and what’s not

You’ll leave with:

  • A clearer understanding of birth and your body

  • A personalized birth prep strategy

  • Confidence in what to focus on before delivery


It has been such a joy working with Dr. Ryan. Not only does she spend quality one on one time with you...while doing it she is always so good at explaining the whys. She makes you feel extremely comfortable and tailors your program to your needs switching exercises weekly based on progress. I highly recommend this to any woman especially postpartum moms!

Postpartum Preparation Consultation

Best during the third trimester

Because postpartum recovery deserves preparation too.

Most women spend months preparing for birth—but almost no one explains what happens after.

This consultation helps you feel more prepared for the physical realities of postpartum recovery so you can go into it with more confidence and less fear.

Support for the recovery no one fully prepared you for.

Stop guessing and start feeling confident in your next steps.

Whether you need reassurance, clarity, or a plan, this session is designed to help you move forward with less overwhelm and more confidence.

  • This isn’t a generic fitness session or a one-size-fits-all checklist.

    You’ll receive individualized guidance tailored to:

    • Your body

    • Your symptoms

    • Your birth experience

    • Your goals and concerns

    Instead of trying to sort through endless saved posts and conflicting advice, you’ll leave with a clear plan that’s realistic and easier to implement.

  • Birth and postpartum are time-sensitive phases.

    The earlier you begin preparing—or the sooner you receive support postpartum—the easier it is to build supportive habits, address symptoms early, and feel more confident in your recovery.

    Even if you’re not ready to address the symptoms fully, because you can’t prioritize care 100% right now, but want some relief.

    You don’t need to wait until something feels “bad enough.”

  • These consultations are not:

    • Hands-on physical therapy treatment

    • Ongoing therapy care

    • A full exercise program

    • General fitness coaching

    If additional support would benefit you, we’ll discuss options for follow-up care, programs, or referrals that fit your needs.

  • A 30 minute consultation with Dr. Ryan Bailey is $111 investment into your well being.

In-Home Perinatal PT

Support your body through every phase — with confidence, clarity, and care

Care happens in your home — where healing already begins.

My services are designed to support the physical demands of motherhood — from pregnancy through postpartum — with care that adapts to your changing body and your real life. This is not rushed care. This is not symptom-chasing. This is whole-body, individualized support.

Dr. Bailey is not currently accepting new in-person patients.

Postpartum & Motherhood

Postpartum recovery is more than waiting six weeks. Your body is learning how to support feeding, lifting, carrying, and daily movement again. Care focuses on rebuilding coordination, strength, and confidence in a gradual and intentional way.

Sessions may include:

  • Assessment of pelvic floor, abdominal, and breathing function

  • Bodywork for scar tissue, pelvic bone or muscle tension, abdominal wall balancing

  • Progressive movement and strengthening based on your healing

  • Education for returning to exercise, work, and daily activity

  • Guidance for symptoms like leaking, pain, or pressure

    Early recovery care may include:

    • Gentle hands-on bodywork to support healing tissues

    • Support for scar, perineal, or abdominal healing

    • Techniques to reduce guarding and tension after a difficult or fast birth

    • Simple movements to encourage circulation and recovery

This stage of care helps you:

  • Support healing after vaginal or cesarean birth

  • Feel safer and more connected to your body after birth

  • Begin recovery with guidance instead of waiting and guessing

  • Restore connection between your core and pelvic floor

  • Rebuild strength safely

  • Reduce pelvic floor symptoms

  • Feel more confident in your body

  • Return to movement and exercise with clarity instead of fear

Pregnancy

Pregnancy places new demands on your body every week. Your posture changes, your breathing adapts, and your core and pelvic floor are under increasing load. Care during pregnancy focuses on supporting these changes rather than simply reacting to pain once it becomes overwhelming.

Sessions may include:

  • Hands-on bodywork to reduce tension in the pelvis, hips, back, and abdomen

  • Assessment of how your breath, core, and pelvic floor are working together

  • Guidance for safe and comfortable movement, exercise, and daily tasks

  • Education about what sensations are normal and which deserve attention

    Birth prep may include:

    • Breathing strategies that support pelvic floor relaxation

    • Pushing mechanics that balance force with control

    • Positioning options that reduce unnecessary strain

    • Education about what happens to your tissues during birth

This stage of care helps you:

  • Feel more comfortable as your body changes

  • Reduce pelvic girdle and low back pain

  • Improve support for your growing belly

  • Build confidence in how your body is functioning

  • Enter birth feeling stronger and more prepared

  • Understand how your body works during pushing

  • Reduce strain on the pelvic floor
