While being pregnant with both of my children and then after delivery, I realized just how much my body went through.
Having so much tightness in my low back that started during pregnancy, and upper body tightness from pregnancy and nursing, I knew I needed to do something about it.
Especially, having mild scoliosis in my thoracic (upper spine) region is always something I need to be mindful of.
To be honest, I looked online for a comprehensive postpartum stretching program that could fit into my busy schedule and do in the comfort of my own home. I had no success.
So I knew with my physical therapy education that I had to create something to help myself and other postpartum moms.
After months of creating a stretching program, I founded "Stretch With Ashlea", to refocus on gentle movement, release pain + mental strain, and regain lasting mobility and comfort.

Being a mom of two toddlers is exciting and overwhelming at the same time! I live in North Carolina by the beach with my supportive and loving husband, and one fur-baby.
Ever since I took my first health class in High School, I have been hooked on science and the body. I remember when I was younger, I wanted to work with babies. However, I am now focused on helping the amazing moms of the sweet babies!
Having over 20 years of experience, including a degree in biology, a minor in chemistry, and being licensed as a physical therapist assistant has given me the ability to teach hundreds of mothers to find immediate relief through proper body movement.
I am passionate about helping postpartum moms because I know what they are going through. I have been there myself. I have two kids, and I experienced the fourth trimester of postpartum firsthand.
I remember going through a lot physically and emotionally after my two babies. As postpartum moms we are recovering from childbirth, adjusting to our new role as a parent(s), and often struggling with the fourth trimester of postpartum.
Having support and taking care of myself was a huge need of mine to get through the difficult times. I know that postpartum moms need support. They need someone to help them feel their best physically and emotionally. That's why I do what I do.
Postpartum stretching is an important part of a healthy recovery after childbirth. It can help to improve flexibility, reduce pain, prevent injuries, improve posture, boost mood, reduce stress, improve sleep, and increase energy levels.
I am grateful for the opportunity to help postpartum moms. I know that I am making a difference in their lives, and that is what continues to motivate me.

I'm "well beyond" postpartum now, but my body still felt tight and uncomfortable. I tried a few other stretching programs, but they were too complicated or just didn't target the areas I needed most.

A few days after giving birth if you feel up to it and as long as you are performing gentle stretching and not going too wide or drastic. However, if you are having pain, DO NOT stretch that day.
Aim for once a day, even if it's just for a few minutes. Then build-up to twice a day.
You need to wait at least six (6) weeks before performing any stretching. Waiting to be cleared by your doctor is recommended.
Nope! All you need is a comfortable mat, some room to stretch, and a stretch strap. Also, grab some water!
You may feel some relief immediately, but consistency is key. Aim to do these stretches regularly for optimal results.
Soreness is normal. If you experience any pain that worsens or persists, discontinue the stretches and consult with your doctor.
