Pregnancy Care

Pregnancy is a time where significant changes occur in your body. These changes are multi-factorial and may be related to hormonal, biomechanical and genetic factors.

Our therapists are trained to support you and provide treatment throughout your pregnancy journey and after birth for post- partum care.

Pregnancy-Specific Treatments

Belly Pillow

We use a special pillow that allows pregnant women to lay face down with their belly supported. This position can alleviate a lot of pressure on the body, especially the low back, and allows our practitioners to effectively treat the whole body. 

Treatment

Soft tissue treatment during pregnancy is safe and effective in managing aches and pains. Common conditions we treat include; low back pain, hip, neck and pelvic pain.

​Treatment techniques include; joint mobilisation techniques, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, dry needling and other modalities.

Exercise and Activity Modification

Exercise is safe during pregnancy and can even help to ease some aches and pains.

Our therapists can create an individualized management plan including activity and exercise advice specific to the persons needs and goals.
