Osteopathy for Pregnancy Care

Many women find osteopathic care helpful during pregnancy and after birth. As the body changes, especially through the third trimester, it is completely normal to experience discomfort as posture, balance and movement patterns shift.

Osteopathy during pregnancy can support easier movement and may contribute to a more comfortable birthing experience for both mother and baby.

Osteopathic treatment can ease the physical strain that often develops throughout pregnancy and can help the body stay as comfortable and mobile as possible in preparation for labour. Osteopaths look at the whole body and work with the musculoskeletal system to improve how it functions during this period of rapid change.

As the baby grows, the extra load and changing centre of gravity can place pressure on the lower back, hips, pelvis, and ribcage. Gentle hands-on treatment can help reduce these symptoms and support the body as it adapts.

Osteopathy is considered safe for pregnancy when provided by a trained practitioner. It is a gentle approach that uses carefully selected techniques to support the mother’s comfort without placing stress on the baby.

If you are pregnant and experiencing back pain, pelvic discomfort, or other physical challenges, we can help you explore whether pregnancy-focused osteopathic care is suitable for your needs. You are welcome to contact Head Above Healthcare for guidance.
