Supporting Your Pregnancy Journey: Alleviate Discomfort and Strengthen Your Body with Expert Physiotherapy Care

The journey of carrying a baby for nine months is an incredible experience, dedicating every bit of yourself to ensure their healthy arrival into the world.

However, this transformative journey involves numerous changes in your body, which can understandably feel overwhelming, both physically and emotionally.

As a result of hormonal changes and the growing weight of the baby, the abdominal muscles and pelvic ligaments stretch significantly to accommodate the growing baby and the increased pressure on the pelvic organs can contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction.

Our objective is to ensure your comfort by providing pain relief techniques and exercises to maintain your fitness and focus on preparing your pelvic floor for the demands of childbirth.
