Do I need to be cleared by the doctor after childbirth to start your exercise program?

Cleared by doctor for exercise

Written by Allie

No, you do not need to be cleared by your provider before starting the program. We have safe, OB-endorsed therapeutic exercise Paths designed to support you during the earliest days postpartum. Our Early Postpartum Path supports a vaginal birth and our Surgical Recovery Path is designed to support recovery following a Cesarean birth (or other surgeries). Both are designed to bridge the gap between birth and your 6-week check-up.

Once you are cleared for exercise, you can easily transition into any of our other prescriptive exercise Paths.
