Pregnancy support
Understanding your changing body
Every pregnancy is unique.
As your body adapts to accommodate your growing baby, changes in posture, movement, breathing patterns and tissue tension can influence how you feel and function. Previous injuries, surgery, scars and lifestyle factors may also affect how your body responds to the demands of pregnancy.
My role is to help you understand these changes, support your body’s natural adaptations and address any symptoms that may be making pregnancy more challenging than it needs to be.
How I can help
As a Chartered Physiotherapist with over 20 years of clinical experience, I provide specialist support for women throughout pregnancy.
Treatment is tailored to your individual needs and may include:
- Assessment of pregnancy-related pain and discomfort
- Hands-on treatment
- Movement and exercise advice
- Pelvic floor guidance
- Postural and breathing assessment
- Visceral assessment where appropriate
- Strategies to support daily activities and exercise
- Preparation for birth and recovery
My aim is not simply to reduce pain, but to help you feel more comfortable, confident and connected to your body as it changes throughout pregnancy.
