Osteopathy in Pregnancy

During pregnancy extra weight and strain is placed on the body which can exacerbate pre-existing issues that your body would usually be able to compensate for on a daily basis. This can then result in lower back, pelvic and hip pain, Sciatica, carpal tunnel, fluid retention, pelvic instability, headaches, migraines, sinus congestion, middle and upper back pain, neck pain, groin pain/inguinal/ round ligament pain, coccyx pain and ribcage pain. 

Osteopathic care during Pregnancy

During pregnancy as you may already know your body undergoes significant changes to your posture, mechanics and hormones. 

 

Some of the musculoskeletal changes that occur are due to an increase in weight, fluid  as well as hormonal changes which can directly influence the connective tissues, ligaments and joints in your body. These changes can leave lasting affects on your musculoskeletal system and may present as different aches and pains. 

 

During pregnancy, osteopaths can provide manual therapy to help rebalance the spine and pelvis which can make the pregnancy easier and may help the delivery process as well. Osteopaths can also provide exercise support and can help reduce pain and tissue tension in all areas of the body. 

​

Osteopaths commonly see lower back, pelvic and hip pain, Sciatica, carpal tunnel, fluid retention, pelvic instability, headaches, migraines, sinus congestion, middle and upper back pain, neck pain, groin pain/inguinal/ round ligament pain, coccyx pain and ribcage pain.
