Postpartum osteopathy
Recovering your body after childbirth, at your own pace.
After nine months of pregnancy and giving birth — vaginally or by caesarean — a mother's body needs time and support to reorganise itself. This is a stage that is often overlooked, but it deserves the same attention as pregnancy itself.
We work on recovering the pelvis, the pelvic floor, the caesarean or episiotomy scar if there is one, and the tension built up in the back and neck from sleepless nights and hours of breastfeeding. The aim is to help the mother's body recover its vitality, mobility and balance, so she can face this new stage with more energy.

- ✓An assessment of your general condition after childbirth.
