How Osteopathy can help
Osteopathy is a gentle and effective way to ease pregnancy-related discomfort, including back pain, pelvic tension, indigestion, reflux and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Our team of Osteopaths specialise in understanding how your muscles, joints, and organs work together—especially during pregnancy.
With hands-on techniques, we help relieve strain, improve movement and mobility and support your body’s natural balance.
Prenatal Treatments
Common Pregnancy Complaints We Treat:
- Lower back and pelvic pain, including Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) and Sacroiliac Joint pain
- Sciatica and leg pain
- Rib, shoulder and thoracic tension and restrictions affecting breathing
- Neck pain and headaches
Many medications aren’t suitable during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Osteopathy offers a natural, drug-free way to manage these common concerns.
Postnatal Osteopathy for a Healthy Recovery
Osteopathy provides gentle, supportive care as your body adjusts to the many physical changes that come after birth.
The postnatal period is a time of recovery, and as your body heals, it also adapts to new daily movements—feeding, carrying, and soothing your baby—all of which can place extra strain on your muscles and joints.
While much of the focus naturally shifts to your baby’s well-being, it’s just as important to care for the mother.
When your body is functioning optimally, you’ll feel stronger, more comfortable, and better able to meet the demands of motherhood.
Osteopathy can help restore balance, ease tension, and support your body through this incredible transition.
We also Specialise in Hypopressives
If you’re experiencing abdominal separation (diastasis recti), a weakened pelvic floor, lower back pain, or prolapse symptoms, hypopressive exercises can be a powerful tool in your postpartum recovery.
Hypopressive exercises are gentle, low-pressure techniques designed to activate and strengthen the deep core and pelvic floor without excessive strain. Using breathwork and posture-focused movements, these exercises help remove barriers to re-establish normal activation of your core, improve alignment, and support overall well-being.
How Hypopressive Training Can Support Your Postnatal Recovery:
- Strengthens the deep core and pelvic floor
- Aids in closing diastasis recti
- Reduces urinary incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction
- Improves posture and relieves back pain
- Enhances breathing and body awareness
- Supports prolapse recovery
- Helps you feel stronger and more confident in your postpartum body
With the right approach, you can restore strength, stability, and confidence after birth.
Personalised Care for Every Stage
Every pregnancy, birth and postpartum period is unique, and so is every treatment.
Your Osteopath will tailor a plan to suit your needs, using gentle techniques to release tension, stretch muscles and improve joint mobility. They’ll also provide posture and movement advice to help you feel your best.
