Postpartum Pelvic Rehab & Return-to-Run Coach

The Problem

Many pregnant and postpartum people (especially in late pregnancy and early postpartum) experience persistent pelvic pain, difficulty walking, and fear about returning to exercise. This happens daily for weeks/months and existing generic fitness apps don't address postpartum physiology or provide safe, progressive protocols and symptom tracking tied to medical guidance.

Why now: Growing awareness of postpartum pelvic health, telehealth normalization, and improved remote biofeedback and video coaching tools make a targeted rehab/product feasible now.

The Solution

A guided rehab app built for late pregnancy through postpartum that starts with a short intake/assessment, then prescribes graded pelvic-floor and functional movement programs (walking progression, core rehab, strength, run-return plans) with video demos, symptom logging, pain maps, and automated progression rules. MVP includes weekly plans, pain/progress tracking, tele-physio scheduling/referral, reminders, and downloadable clearance notes for providers.

Built for: Pregnant and postpartum people (late pregnancy through 6-12 months postpartum) who want to resolve pelvic pain and safely return to running or regular activity.
