PREGNANCY

We can help make pregnancy easier!

A beautiful stage of life where the body goes through dramatic and rapid changes. Our pregnancy treatments are covered under a regular osteopathic consultation but involve a belly pillow; this allows comfortability of the patient throughout the stages of pregnancy. The belly pillow allows the patient to lie on their tummy comfortably, allowing the practitioner to treat the lower back and pelvis directly, encouraging optimal results. Specific pre and post-natal treatment, education and rehabilitation aims to support the transition through pregnancy naturally and with minimal pain and impact on the body.At Eastern Region Osteopathy, we understand the unique physical challenges that pregnancy can bring. Our skilled osteopaths possess exceptional knowledge in providing safe and effective treatments to alleviate pregnancy-related pain and discomfort, ensuring the well-being of both you and your baby.

During pregnancy, the body undergoes significant changes, including shifts in posture, increased stress on the musculoskeletal system, and hormonal fluctuations. These changes can result in various issues such as lower back pain, pelvic pain, sciatica, and general discomfort. Osteopathy offers a holistic approach to address these concerns and promote optimal health throughout your pregnancy.
Our osteopaths employ gentle and non-invasive techniques to relieve tension, restore balance, and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. By focusing on your individual needs and concerns, they can alleviate pain, improve joint mobility, and optimize overall function. The treatments are tailored to accommodate the specific requirements and safety considerations of pregnancy.

To enhance your comfort during the treatment, we utilize a specialized belly pillow. This pillow is specifically designed to provide support and relieve pressure on your abdomen while allowing you to lie comfortably on your front. The use of a belly pillow ensures that you can receive the benefits of osteopathic treatment without any unnecessary discomfort or strain.
