Exercise guidance during & after pregnancy

Nicolien Meyer is skilled and qualified in offering safe and effective exercise guidance during pregnancy. Pregnancy and post-partum rehabilitation is her passion and she is well versed in all things pregnancy and pregnancy recovery. This type of rehabilitation includes but is not limited to pelvic floor rehabilitation and core and abdominal retraining.



2. Pelvic floor rehabilitation and core training/retraining. Breathing and activation techniques are used to regain core control and pelvic floor activation/relaxation. This treatment is offered to most patients but especially to those struggling with chronic back pain, postural deviations, hip pain and for various post surgical interventions.

3. Injury rehabilitation

Acute and chronic injuries such as knee pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, fractures, dislocations etc can all be treated by a Biokineticist. Specific, research based protocols are used to assess the injury and to develop a treatment plan for full and optimal recovery.

4.Post operative rehabilitation

Physical rehabilitation following a surgery is crucial in long-term recovery of the injured part. As with normal injury rehabilitation, a Biokineticist can assist with pre or post operative rehabilitation. Whether the surgery is due to a traumatic injury (such as a motor accident) or from a long overdue surgery (such as a total hip replacement), Biokinetics uses stretching, exercise, mobility and lifestyle modifications to get the patient back to functioning optimally.

5.Sports rehabilitation

Sports injuries such as tennis elbow, concussion, runner's knee, intervertebral disc herniation or spondylolysis can be treated by a Biokineticist. Nicolien Meyer has 5 years experience working with athletes from all sports and has a keen interest in tennis, running and dance.

6.Chronic disease management

Diabetes, Chronic opstruction pulmonary disorders (COPD), heart disease and obesity are some chronic conditions treated at Nicolien Meyer Biokinetics.

7. Neurological rehabilitation

Neuro rehabilitation is a field of study particularly close to Nicolien Meyers heart. This area of rehabilitation includes rehabilitation from stroke, parkinsons and spinal cord injury.

✨ Move for Your Health ✨

Exercise isn't just about fitness—it's one of the best investments you can make in your overall health. Every walk, workout, stretch, or movement session contributes to a healthier heart, a stronger body, a clearer mind, better sleep, and long-term disease prevention.

Remember: you don't have to be perfect. Just keep moving. 💙

Last week’s balance challenge was on the floor... but if you nailed that one, it’s time to level up! 👣🔥

Try the same challenge on a pillow or balance pad and see how much harder your body has to work to stay stable.

Balance isn't just about standing on one leg — it's about coordination, control, and injury prevention.

🦴 Bone density decreases by up to 20% after menopause.
💪🏻 Muscle mass is lost at a rate of 3-8% per decade starting at 30 years old.
🚺Women are twice as likely as men to fracture a hip after 65.

Sit to stand: 10 reps, 3 sets: 3 times a week (add load)
Carry: 60 seconds x 4 sets (load heavy enough that you can’t go further than 60seconds)
Single leg stand (eyes closed): 3 attempts per side.
Hang: 3 sets 3 times per week, body weight (see if you can hang a little longer each time)
Floor get up: 1-2 times a week: attempt a few.

POV: your balance is better than your excuses 👀

Try this balance progression to challenge your stability, coordination, and core control. Hold each progression for 1 Minute per leg👏

Balance training is about more than just standing still — it improves joint stability, injury prevention, body awareness, and overall movement control 🧠💪
Start where you are and progress when it feels easy ✨

Cold weather can make muscles and joints feel stiffer, which is why warm-ups and recovery become even more important during winter ❄️
A proper warm-up helps:
✔️ Increase blood flow
✔️ Improve mobility and flexibility
✔️ Prepare muscles for movement
✔️ Reduce injury risk

And recovery is just as important:
✔️ Reduces post-training stiffness
✔️ Supports muscle recovery
✔️ Helps maintain mobility and performance

Winter training doesn’t mean pushing harder — it means preparing your body properly 💪

Low-lisk and uncomplicated pregnant women can, and SHOULD, strength train throughout their pregnancy

There is no link between weight lifting and miscarriage, small baby weight or pre-term birth or labour.

Instead there are a myriad of benefits:
🩷improved ease of natural birth
🩷improved recovery after birth
🩷decreased rates of pregnancy complications
🩷decreased risk of pregnancy diabetes, high blood pressure or exessive weight gain

Sometimes women just need a bit of guidance in what they can do, or how. But telling them to “walk” and “don’t exercise at all” is doing them an injustice, when proper exercise training offers so many benefits. Even more than listed above
