Pregnancy is time when changes are numerous, but nowhere moreso than in the body. Pregnancy causes changes to your posture; the weightbearing through your low back, pelvis, hips, knees and ankles; your ligaments and your energy levels.
Osteopathic treatment throughout your pregnancy can help to ensure that the postural and weightbearing changes do not create pain nor dysfunction. It can help to ensure optimal mechanical balance of your musculo-skeletal system.
As the time of the birth approaches, Osteopathic treatment can help to ensure that you maintain good mobility of the spine, pelvis and hips, together with ensuring that your muscle tone is optimal at this all important time.
We also recommend that after the birth, you have a check up to ensure that good musculo-skeletal function has been maintained. This is a great time for both mother and baby to be treated together. See our page on the Osteopathic treatment of babies and children.
