Understanding Women's Health Issues
Many women in Indore suffer silently with problems they think are just part of being a woman or mother. Leaking urine, painful intimacy, weak core, back pain after delivery. These issues are treatable, not just something you have to live with.
As a female physiotherapist, Dr. Manisha understands these sensitive concerns. Many women feel more comfortable discussing these issues with another woman. All consultations are private, and home visits ensure complete discretion.
“Women often tell me they thought leaking urine after having children was normal. Or that their back pain was just something they had to accept. It breaks my heart because these problems respond so well to proper women’s health physiotherapy. You do not have to suffer in silence.”
Dr. Manisha Mishra, MPT (Musculoskeletal)

Vijay Nagar, Indore | Age 29 | First Pregnancy
“My lower back pain started in fifth month. Could not sit at office desk for more than one hour. My gynaecologist at Bombay Hospital referred me to Dr. Manisha. She came home twice weekly. Taught me exercises, corrected my sitting posture, gave me support belt. Back pain reduced by 80 percent. I worked comfortably till eighth month.”

Postnatal Rehabilitation in Indore
Your body goes through enormous changes during pregnancy and delivery. Postnatal rehabilitation helps you recover properly, not just lose weight. Many new mothers in Indore rush into intense exercise too soon and end up with injuries or worsened diastasis.
Postnatal rehabilitation addresses:
- Weak abdominal muscles
- Diastasis recti (abdominal separation)
- Weak pelvic floor
- Back pain from feeding and carrying baby
- Poor posture
- C section scar issues
When to start postnatal physiotherapy:
- Normal delivery: gentle exercises can start within days
- C section: after doctor clearance, usually 6 to 8 weeks
- Even years after delivery: it is never too late to start
Rashmi Joshi
Scheme 78, Indore | Age 45 | Mother of Two
“After my second child, I started leaking urine whenever I laughed or jumped. For ten years I avoided going to gym or playing with my kids. I was too embarrassed to tell anyone. When I finally met Dr. Manisha, she explained it was just weak muscles, not something I had to live with. Three months of pelvic floor exercises. Now I do Zumba classes without any pad.”

Pelvic Floor Therapy in Indore
Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support your bladder, uterus, and bowel. Pregnancy, delivery, and aging can weaken these muscles. Symptoms include leaking urine, feeling of heaviness in vagina, difficulty controlling bowel, and pain during intimacy.
Signs you need pelvic floor therapy:
- Leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or exercising
- Urgency to reach toilet quickly
- Feeling of something coming down in vagina
- Pain during intercourse
- Difficulty emptying bladder or bowel completely
- Chronic pelvic pain
“Pelvic floor problems are embarrassing to discuss. Many women in Indore wear pads for years without telling anyone. But these muscles can be strengthened at any age. I have helped women in their 60s stop using pads completely. You just need proper guidance on the right exercises.”
Dr. Manisha Mishra, MPT (Musculoskeletal)
Diastasis Recti Treatment in Indore
Diastasis recti is the separation of abdominal muscles that happens during pregnancy. Your belly may still look pregnant months or years after delivery. A gap or bulge appears down the middle of your tummy when you try to sit up. This is not just cosmetic. It affects your core strength and can cause back pain.
Signs of diastasis recti:
- Belly still looks pregnant after delivery
- Dome or ridge appears when sitting up
- Gap felt between muscles above or below navel
- Lower back pain
- Weak core despite exercising
Important warning:
Traditional crunches and sit ups make diastasis WORSE. Many women in Indore do the wrong exercises and increase the gap. Proper rehabilitation focuses on deep core activation and gradual progression.
Diastasis Recti: Exercises to Avoid vs Safe Exercises
| Exercises to AVOID | Why Harmful | Safe Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Crunches and sit ups | Increases abdominal pressure, widens gap | Diaphragmatic breathing with core engagement |
| Planks (full) | Too much pressure on healing muscles | Modified wall planks, incline planks |
| Leg raises | Strains separated muscles | Heel slides, bent knee falls |
| Twisting movements | Pulls on separated tissue | Gentle rotations with core braced |
| Heavy lifting | Increases intra abdominal pressure | Light weights with proper breathing |
Back Pain During Pregnancy Treatment in Indore
Up to 70 percent of pregnant women experience back pain. As your belly grows, your posture changes and back muscles work harder. Hormones also loosen your joints, making them less stable. Our pregnancy back pain treatment in Indore provides relief without medications.
Safe treatments for pregnancy back pain:
- Manual therapy (safe techniques for pregnancy)
- Stretching exercises
- Posture correction
- Pregnancy support belt guidance
- Sleeping position advice
- Work ergonomics for pregnant women
Post Natal Physiotherapy
Cesarean delivery is major abdominal surgery. Your core muscles are cut and need proper rehabilitation. Many women in Indore are told to just rest and wait, but proper post C section physiotherapy helps you recover faster and prevents long term problems.
Post Natal Physiotherapy includes:
- Scar tissue mobilization (prevents adhesions)
- Safe core reactivation
- Posture correction for feeding
- Gentle strengthening exercises
- Diastasis recti check and treatment
- Return to exercise guidance
Pooja Sharma
Nipania, Indore | Age 26 | Post Natal
After my delivery, I struggled with severe back pain and a weak core no matter what I tried. I was attempting intense belly exercises at home, but my pain was only getting worse. Dr. Manisha explained that jumping into intense workouts too soon can actually damage the weakened post-pregnancy muscles. She designed a balanced program focusing on safe core strengthening and pelvic health. In six months, I regained my strength, lost the pregnancy weight, and my back pain vanished. Even my gynecologist was impressed with how well I recovered.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it normal to leak urine after having children?
Leaking urine is common after childbirth but not normal. It indicates weak pelvic floor muscles that can be strengthened with proper exercises. Most women see significant improvement within 3 to 4 months of pelvic floor therapy.
When can I start exercising after C section?
Gentle breathing and pelvic floor exercises can start within days of C section. More active exercises usually begin after your doctor clears you at 6 to 8 weeks. A proper post C section rehabilitation program ensures you progress safely without harming your recovery.
Can diastasis recti be fixed without surgery?
Most cases of diastasis recti improve significantly with proper rehabilitation exercises. Surgery is only needed for severe cases that do not respond to physiotherapy. The key is doing the right exercises. Wrong exercises like crunches make it worse.
Is exercise safe during pregnancy?
Yes, exercise during pregnancy is safe and beneficial for most women. It reduces back pain, improves mood, helps with delivery, and speeds recovery. However, exercises need to be modified for each trimester. A prenatal physiotherapy program ensures you exercise safely.
