During pregnancy, the body undergoes immense physical changes both structurally and hormonally in a very short space of time. As the body adapts to the growing baby, it is common to experience back and joint pain as a result of carrying the additional weight and Osteopaths are qualified to help relieve those symptoms. Treatment is gentle with massage techniques and where required, gentle joint manipulation. The safety of the mother and baby is paramount at all times.
