Osteopathic treatment during pregnancy is a great tool to help maintain mobility as the body shifts and adapts throughout the journey of growing a new life. We are trained to assess how the growing belly is affecting the structure as a whole and safely address areas that may be restricted in their motion. We can treat you in whatever position you are comfortable with, and you can shift your position at any time throughout the appointment.

Here are some common issues we find success with treating osteopathically:

  • Back pain, hip pain, and rib pain

  • Feeling like it’s difficult to get a deep breath

  • Swelling

  • Optimal positioning for baby

  • Balancing tension through the pelvis (ensuring equal tension throughout so all areas move as they should during labour and birth)
