We're on a mission to raise the standard of care for post natal women!
About GrowCo
At Kawartha Family Chiropractic we believe that Moms deserve so much more than just a six week checkup when it comes to recovery after childbirth. Our GrowCo experts fill that gap by providing a comprehensive postpartum checkup and progressive healing through exercise targeting the core, pelvic core and total body. We run virtual group-based post natal rehab programs.
It's tough to think about yourself when you've just given birth to a little miracle, but in order to be at your best for them you need to think about yourself too. You need to have a recovery plan in place. We will collaborate with you to establish that plan and support you through it. It's time to thrive, Mama!
What To Expect With GrowCo
The GrowCo methodology is aimed at preventing, reducing, and/or resolving symptoms women have been made to think are an inevitable consequence of childbirth. Issues like:
- Separated or weak abdominals
- Urinary or fecal incontinence
- Chronic low back/ pelvic pain
- Pelvic floor function
- And so much more!
The 4 Pillars of GrowCo Post Natal Rehab
- Breathwork
- Postural Protocol
- Core and Pelvic Floor Function & Strength
- Glute Strengthening
What's Included?
Our GrowCo program includes 8 class sessions, 2x a week for a total investment of $200 due upon registration. This breaks down to only $25 per class!! If you are currently a patient of Dr. Loucks or Dr. Jill, an initial assessment is not required. For new patients, an initial assessment is required to go over your health history and customize your care plan. This is an additional $85 and can be scheduled ahead of the program in the clinic or virtually.
Who Is This Program Designed For
Our program is virtual, therefore it is available to anyone residing in Ontario! Based on your method of delivery the timeline to join our seasonal GrowCo sessions may differ. These timelines will vary from individual to individual, but are basic guidelines for the earliest we would like you to join the program to start your rehabilitation journey.

Our methodology is aimed at preventing, reducing, or resolving symptoms that women have been made to think is an inevitable consequence from having children (newsflash: it's not). We are changing the narrative around women's health and we are here to support you.
