Pregnancy
A body changing week after week.
Pregnancy changes load, balance, breathing, movement and daily comfort. Osteopathy may sometimes be considered for musculoskeletal discomfort, alongside normal obstetric follow-up.
The consultation is adapted to the stage of pregnancy and to comfort. It never replaces follow-up by a midwife, doctor or maternity team.
Bleeding, severe abdominal pain, fever, loss of fluid, reduced fetal movement later in pregnancy or any worrying symptom requires appropriate medical advice rather than an osteopathic appointment.
