Pregnancy Osteopathy
Pregnancy is a time of profound change, physically, hormonally, and emotionally. As the body adapts to support new life, it can also experience increased strain, discomfort, and postural challenges.
Pregnancy osteopathy offers a safe, gentle and individualised way to support these natural changes and promote comfort throughout pregnancy and beyond.
Discover how Pregnancy Osteopathy can reduce pain and discomfort
What is Pregnancy Osteopathy?
Let's start by answering a few key questions...
Pregnancy osteopathy is a specialised form of osteopathic care that helps the body adjust to the physical and hormonal changes of pregnancy.
As the centre of gravity shifts, joints, muscles, and ligaments can come under extra pressure, leading to pain or restricted movement. Osteopathic treatment supports these adaptations by improving mobility, circulation, and balance.
At Oak Park Clinic, pregnancy osteopathy treatments are:
Gentle and safe
Tailored to individual needs and comfort
Holistic, supporting both physical and emotional wellbeing
By working with the body, osteopathy can help expectant mothers move more freely, rest more comfortably, and feel more at ease throughout pregnancy.
What are the benefits of Pregnancy Osteopathy?
Many expectant mothers seek osteopathic treatment to manage discomfort and maintain movement as their pregnancy progresses.
Osteopathy can help manage and relieve:
Lower back pain and sciatica
Pelvic girdle pain or pubic symphysis dysfunction
Rib or upper back pain due to postural or breast changes
Swelling or leg discomfort (via lymphatic drainage techniques)
Breathing restrictions or diaphragm tightness
Neck pain and headaches related to postural strain
By easing tension and improving function, osteopathy supports comfort, sleep quality, and relaxation, helping patients stay active and confident throughout pregnancy.
What to expect from Pregnancy Osteopathy at Oak Park Clinic?
Each appointment begins with a detailed consultation to understand symptoms, pregnancy stage, and lifestyle.
Treatment may include:
Soft tissue techniques to ease tension in the back, hips, and legs
Lymphatic work to reduce swelling and improve circulation
Gentle spinal and pelvic mobilisation to restore movement
Breathing, posture, and pelvic floor guidance
Practical advice for daily movement, lifting, and rest positions
Sessions are designed to be calm, restorative, and informative. Helping you understand your body and feel empowered.
How can Pregnancy Osteopathy support in post-natal care?
After childbirth, the body continues to adapt as it recovers from pregnancy and delivery
Postnatal osteopathy can help reduce pain, and support healing.
It can be particularly beneficial for:
Pelvic or sacroiliac joint pain
Persistent lower back discomfort
Diastasis recti (abdominal separation)
C-section scar mobility (with additional support from our in-clinic scar tissue therapist)
Postural strain from feeding, lifting, and baby care
Treatment combines gentle manual therapy, postural advice, and guided exercises, promoting recovery, strength, and confidence.
