During Pregnancy, the body experiences many hormonal and physical changes. Some of these physical developments can cause difficulties throughout the pregnancy. However, a lot of these discomforts can be resolved by our highly trained Physiotherapists who treat pelvic and rib related dysfunctions that are due to the baby’s growth and related postural changes; ligament laxity with the release of the hormone relaxin; and core muscle weakness including the pelvic floor.
Our therapists have specialist training related to the issues that pregnancy and child birth can cause. Our services include:
- Whole body assessment and treatment of any musculoskeletal issues related to pregnancy such as lumbo-pelvic pain
- Ante & post-natal Pilates
- Ante & post-natal exercise programs and returning to sports after giving birth
- Rectus diastasis assessment and treatment
- Lactation (breast feeding): treating breast pain and mastitis prevention
