Where does Osteopathy fit in?
Osteopathic treatment during pregnancy involves gentle, hands-on techniques tailored to support your body through the changes of pregnancy and the post partum (after the birth) period.
Sessions include a full assessment and treatment utilising osteopathic and cranial osteopathy techniques to relieve pain, improve mobility, promote relaxation and help with the physical changes that impact your functional movement (the normal movements you carry out during a day). We combine this with a personalised care plan to help you adapt and thrive during your pregnancy.
Benefits include alleviating back, pelvic and sciatic pain, enhancing posture and circulation, reducing swelling and supporting better digestion and breathing.
This holistic approach not only helps prepare the body for labour and delivery but also supports overall well-being and relaxation.
You can start osteopathic care at any stage of pregnancy, though the second and third trimesters are particularly beneficial for addressing discomfort and preparing for birth. Postpartum sessions can help your body recover and re-adapt after pregnancy and child birth as well as helping with the ongoing challenges of parenting a new born.
Consult an osteopath at The Vale Practice to determine the best timing for your specific needs.
Where does Nutrition fit in?
Nutritional Therapy and Herbal Medicine during pregnancy offer essential support in two key areas:
- General Nutrition Guidance: This involves providing expert advice on a balanced, nourishing diet to support a healthy pregnancy for the mother while ensuring the nutritional needs for optimal fetal development are met. This guidance extends into the postpartum phase, where proper nutrition plays a crucial role in supporting breastfeeding, enhancing energy levels, improving mood, strengthening physical recovery, and promoting overall well-being after childbirth.
- Addressing Specific Health Concerns: In addition to general nutritional advice, consultations may address specific health concerns such as digestive issues, blood sugar regulation, energy levels, and more. During the session, the nutritionist and herbalist will review current health concerns, medical history, dietary habits, and lifestyle. Based on this, a personalized plan will be developed, offering tailored nutritional recommendations, supplement suggestions, and herbal remedies as applicable.
All recommendations provided are evidence-based, practical, and tailored to individual circumstances. Sessions typically last for approximately one hour, with the need for follow-up appointments determined on a case-by-case basis.
