Pregnancy-related problems

Physiotherapy during and after pregnancy

Pregnancy, childbirth and baby care can place enormous mental and physical strain on a mother. At The PhysioStudio, we support and educate our mums-to-be and new mums to help maintain their strength and suppleness and to prevent long-term problems of back pain and incontinence. We are also able to treat mums-to-be throughout their pregnancy with gentle mobilising and strengthening techniques, helping them enjoy as comfortable a pregnancy as possible.

We work to inspire and motivate women to stop putting exercise on the backburner and incorporate time spent with children with physical activities to help boost energy levels and keep in overall good shape, encouraging exercise to become an integral part of life.

At the PhysioStudio we encourage mums to do more with their new baby to promote happiness and a sense of wellbeing. Regular exercise not only helps to improve your strength, suppleness and stamina but is also important for relaxation, restful sleep and confidence building. We believe that if we can encourage mums to start to exercise with their babies as soon as they feel able (usually about 6 weeks post childbirth), they find it easier to incorporate exercise into their everyday life.

Remember when you first start to exercise, be sensible and start gently. If you experience any backache, pelvic girdle pain or incontinence give us a call for a specialised consultation.
