What we treat
Pregnancy & postpartum
Pregnancy and the months after birth place significant demands on the body. Gentle, adapted osteopathic care supports comfort through every stage.
As the body changes through pregnancy, the lower back, pelvis and hips take on new loads. Many people experience back pain, pelvic discomfort or sciatic-type symptoms during this time.
After birth, feeding positions, lifting and broken sleep place fresh demands on the neck, shoulders and back — often just when there is least time to look after yourself.
Osteopathic techniques are adapted to be gentle and comfortable during pregnancy and the postpartum period, with positioning modified to suit each stage.
Common presentations
- Lower back and pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy
- Sciatic-type pain into the hip or leg
- Neck and shoulder tension from feeding and carrying
- General stiffness as the body recovers after birth
How we approach pregnancy & postpartum care
We take time to understand your stage, your symptoms and what your daily life looks like, then adapt treatment positions and techniques accordingly.
Care combines gentle hands-on treatment with practical advice on movement, lifting and posture — supporting your comfort through pregnancy and your recovery afterwards.
