POSTNATAL REFORMER & MAT PILATES CLASSES IN SINGAPORE

Congratulations on becoming a mother, whether for the first time or again. At PhysioMatters, our postnatal Pilates sessions offer a safe, supportive, and physiotherapist-led path to restoring your strength, confidence, and wellbeing during this special phase.
Why Choose Postnatal Pilates?
Gentle Core and Pelvic Floor Recovery
Your deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscles need specific, low-impact movements to recover after pregnancy. Whether you’re healing from Diastasis Recti, managing bladder control, or experiencing pelvic discomfort, our physiotherapist-guided exercises help you activate and rebuild these vital muscles safely and effectively, without crunches or strain.
Improved Posture and Tension Relief
Feeding, carrying, and sleepless nights often lead to rounded shoulders, tight hips, and lower back pain. Our Pilates sessions restore postural alignment while relieving tension in commonly affected areas like the neck, shoulders, hips, and back.
Enhanced Breathing and Mind-Body Awareness
We incorporate breath-led movements that support nervous system regulation, help ease postnatal anxiety, and improve core and pelvic floor activation, helping you reconnect with your body and calm your mind.
Rebuild Strength, Stability, and Balance
As your body adjusts to new demands, we focus on rebuilding strength in the hips and core to improve stability. This makes daily movements like lifting, walking, and returning to exercise feel easier and more supported.
Safe, Low-Impact Exercise with the Reformer
The Reformer’s spring resistance and sliding bed offer joint-safe support, making it ideal whether you’ve had a vaginal birth or a C-section. Movements are customised to match your energy and recovery levels while protecting healing tissues and avoiding injury.
A Space for Emotional Wellbeing and Self-Care
Motherhood can be overwhelming. Our calm, nurturing sessions provide time for emotional reset and self-care, helping reduce stress, manage fatigue, and support mood regulation during early motherhood.
Why Choose PhysioMatters for Postnatal Pilates?
✓ Led by Women’s Health Physiotherapists
All sessions are conducted one-to-one by experienced physiotherapists trained in postnatal recovery. You’ll receive expert guidance tailored to your delivery type — whether vaginal, C-section, or if you're managing Diastasis Recti or pelvic floor concerns.
✓ Personalised to Your Body and Goals
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Every programme starts with a thorough physiotherapy assessment. From there, your Pilates plan is customised to your physical condition, energy levels, fitness goals, and personal recovery timeline.
✓ Supportive, Non-Judgemental Environment
Some days are tougher than others — and we get that. Our studio is a calm, welcoming space where you're encouraged to go at your own pace without pressure, guilt, or expectations.
Important Things to Know Before You Start
✓ Medical Clearance is Essential
Especially if you’ve had a C-section or birth complications, always get your doctor’s clearance (typically around 6–8 weeks postpartum). Even if your scar looks healed on the outside, deeper tissues may still need time.
✓ Postnatal Physiotherapy Assessment is Recommended
We check for abdominal separation (Diastasis Recti), pelvic floor weakness, or early signs of prolapse before designing your Pilates programme — to ensure every movement supports your recovery.
✓ Joint Safety Matters During Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding keeps hormones like relaxin active in your body, increasing joint laxity. That’s why our Pilates method emphasises controlled, joint-safe movements to protect areas like your wrists, hips, and lower back.
