Pregnant Patients
Aches and pains are common during pregnancy, as the body changes shape to accommodate the increasing size and weight of the uterus. This involves considerable changes to the posture. If the mother has existing back problems, or strains in her body from past accidents or trauma, it may be more difficult for her to accommodate these changes, and she may suffer more discomfort as a result. Poor posture may cause backache, neckache, headaches, aching legs and undue fatigue. Osteopathic treatment is helpful in assisting the body to make postural changes easily and makes the pregnancy much more comfortable. Osteopathic treatment is effective during pregnancy and post pregnancy, helping to both balance and bring the body back to normal posture.
