Specialty care · Wave 3
Pelvic health, pregnancy, and postpartum support
Education, breathing, external exercise, and return-to-activity plans can be delivered remotely while preserving the need for specialized examination.
This pathway is part of the product roadmap and is not currently available as a Cost Plus PT treatment program.
Potential pathway scope
Use cases the product may support.
These are product and research categories—not a self-diagnosis list. A released pathway would still need to confirm that the person, symptom pattern, environment, and goals fit its exact approved rules.
- 01Pregnancy-related back discomfort
- 02Pelvic-girdle pain
- 03Postpartum core rehabilitation
- 04Diastasis recti exercise programs
- 05Breathing and pressure management
- 06Pelvic-floor awareness and relaxation
- 07General pelvic-floor strengthening when appropriate
- 08Return to exercise postpartum
- 09Urinary urgency or continence education
- 10Constipation-related positioning and breathing education
How the platform could help
Useful technology with bounded jobs.
Each capability must be validated for this pathway. Approval of one camera task, condition, or population does not authorize another.
Hands-free voice
Voice can deliver setup, timing, concise cues, and bounded commands while captions and touch remain complete fallbacks.
Bounded adaptation
A versioned rules engine may choose only approved progressions, regressions, substitutions, holds, or stops inside the pathway.
Education and pacing
The app can provide approved education, activity modification, pacing, recovery expectations, and flare-up guidance.
Functional progress
The pathway can follow a repeatable life or task measure instead of relying only on pain or exercise completion.
Care ownership
Who and what the pathway still needs.
A pelvic-health clinician should determine whether the person needs strengthening, relaxation, internal examination, medical care, or a different pathway.
Camera boundary
Visible does not mean diagnosed.
External posture and movement may be coached, but the camera cannot replace an internal pelvic-floor examination or infer muscle tone.
Before patient release
A pathway is more than exercise content.
Every family moves through its own clinical, evidence, technical, and operational approval. A later status change should update the catalog, not bypass these gates.
