During pregnancy

Osteopathic treatment during pregnancy is safe and effective. It can reduce tensions within the body allowing the necessary postural changes to occur more easily. This leads to a more comfortable and enjoyable pregnancy.

• Sacro-iliac and back pain
• Neck pain and headaches
• Sciatica and leg pain
