Mothers guided to recovery
Why Mum Sattva
Recovery is not one-dimensional — neither are we
Most postpartum programs focus on just one aspect — fitness, diet, or mental health. Mum Sattva takes a truly multidisciplinary approach, because your body, mind, and baby all deserve expert attention during this transformative time.
Evidence-Based Protocols
Every recovery plan is grounded in clinical research and adapted to your unique postpartum needs — not generic fitness routines.
Four Specialists, One Team
Physiotherapy, nutrition, psychology, and pediatrics work in harmony — so your physical recovery, emotional well-being, and baby's health are all cared for.
Compassionate, Mother-Led Care
Our experts are mothers themselves. They understand the emotional complexity of postpartum life and meet you with empathy, not judgment.
Sustainable, Long-Term Results
We don't chase quick fixes. Our programs build lasting strength, healthy habits, and confidence that extend far beyond the recovery period.

Stage 1: Comprehensive Assessment
Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation by our multidisciplinary team. Dr. Ashwini assesses your core function, diastasis recti, and pelvic floor. Tanushree reviews your nutritional needs and gut health. Shrishti understands your emotional landscape. Dr. Madhumita ensures your baby's health is integrated into your care plan. Together, we create a personalized recovery roadmap.

Not at all. Our programs support all mothers — whether you had a vaginal delivery, C-section, or experienced complications. Our multidisciplinary team assesses your individual needs and creates a personalized recovery plan regardless of your delivery type.
