Pregnancy and childbirth is a very significant time for a woman; for some it will be joyous and without complication whilst, for others, it may pose problems.

Pregnancy places significant strain on the body, particularly on the spine, pelvis, and joints, as it adapts to the growing baby. Osteopathic treatment can relieve back pain, pelvic discomfort, and joint strain, promoting better mobility and reducing stress on the body. 

Postnatally, osteopathy helps mothers recover from the physical changes and strains of childbirth, aiding in restoring balance and alignment. It can also address breastfeeding-related issues such as neck or shoulder tension, ensuring mothers feel more comfortable and supported during this transformative time.

The Practitioners at The Chandos Clinic have considerable experience and specialist training in treating this patient group. Their wealth of knowledge and gentle treatments may help you to enjoy a more positive pregnancy and post-natal period. It may also enable you to take some control of your own health and wellbeing.
