H<\/span>ow can osteopathy after childbirth help you?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Childbirth is one of the most intense moments in a woman’s life, both emotionally and physically. In the weeks following the birth of a child, new morphological, hormonal and emotional changes upset her body again to bring her back to her former balance. Sometimes brutal, they leave the woman in a fragile state: the postpartum<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This return is normally smooth, but the physical trauma of childbirth can leave tensions in the pelvis, hips and coccyx that manifest themselves in lumbar and pelvic pain, but also in digestive, genital or cardio-respiratory disorders, headaches, to name the most frequent. These discomforts limit regular physical activities, including the necessary care of the newborn. If you treat them quickly, you will need fewer visits to your osteopath and, above all, you will avoid them degenerating and adding to your worries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the case for scars related to an epidural, episiotomy or caesarean section. The tissues, already stretched by pregnancy, need to be softened to heal without leaving uncomfortable stiffness. As for the pelvis, it is the most affected by childbirth. In the majority of cases, it is solicited in an asymmetrical way which leaves it victim of unequal tensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new reality of caring for an infant, such as feeding, carrying, carrying the diaper bag, and putting the shell in the car, means that positions are not always ergonomic, creating discomfort. It is common for a new mother to be afflicted with back pain, shoulder pain up to the wrists, headaches, digestive problems and more. The slightest symptom should be mentioned to your osteopath who will look for the origin of these tensions and, through gentle manipulations, will follow with relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
