Osteopathic treatment can be extremely beneficial for many problems related to women’s health.
Gentle treatment techniques can be used to relieve symptoms by improving the function of problem related areas. This can be achieved by restoring good structural balance and alignment of the spine, pelvis and related internal organs. Thus improving circulation, relieving congestion, and balancing hormonal and nerve activity.
Osteopathic treatment before, during, and after pregnancy is also very effective in relieving many of it’s unpleasant side effects, allowing mother to relax and enjoy these times. Treatment through pregnancy is a very gentle way of helping the body adapt to the changes that take place as the baby grows in the womb. It allows for good foetal positioning and prepares the mother’s body for labour.
Mothers are usually advised to have a postnatal check-up 4-6 weeks after giving birth. This helps restore good pelvic, bladder, and joint function.
