WOMEN & MOTHERS

Mindfulness for your body

OSTEOPATHY FOR MOTHERS-TO-BE

Osteopathy is an independent, holistic form of medicine that views the human being individually and as a functional unit consisting of body (with all its different structures), mind and soul. The therapy uses both gentle and mobilizing techniques to identify and treat functional dysfunction. The natural self-healing powers are activated and promoted, and not only individual symptoms are treated, but always the person as a whole. This allows for the individual needs of women and mothers to be addressed.

Our exclusive therapy table, which can be adjusted to individual chest and abdominal heights and also allows treatment in the prone position for expectant/nursing mothers, allows us to optimally position, relieve and treat you. This allows us to treat problems and structures that may not be relaxed or accessible in other positions.

Osteopathic treatment can help alleviate and improve the following conditions during pregnancy, in preparation for childbirth and after childbirth:

  • Back pain
  • Pelvic pain / pelvic joint blockages
  • Neck tension
  • Tension headache
  • Recurrent numbness in the legs
  • Scar complaints
  • Feeling of breathlessnes
  • Compression of the kidneys and ureters
  • Pain in the diaphragm, upper abdomen, ribs
  • Painful irritation of the gallbladder

PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES

Due to its anatomical location and function, a woman’s pelvic floor is designed to withstand exceptionally high loads. Each woman’s approach to this unique source of strength is unique. Weaknesses and potential are identified and treated individually through a detailed evaluation. In addition to the osteopathic treatment, the therapy includes a detailed information session and simple exercises that can easily be done at home.

The structures of the pelvic floor are subjected to extreme stress, especially during pregnancy, and therefore require special care to restore their full functionality.

Possible symptoms of pelvic floor weakness:

  • Involuntary loss of urine or stool when sneezing, laughing, coughing, exercising
  • Painful bathroom visits
  • Lumbar back pain
  • Lower abdominal pain
  • Pain, numbness and discomfort during sexual intercourse
  • Downward pressure sensation

    PREGNANCY / PRE- AND POSTNATAL TREATMENTS

    The time before and after the birth of a child is very special. It is also very demanding for a woman and her body. With our therapy table specially designed for pregnant women and nursing mothers, we are ideally prepared for a relaxing and relieving treatment.

    The physical changes that occur during this time often lead to symptoms of discomfort or even pain. Osteopathic treatments can be very relieving and beneficial.

    We look forward to accompanying you through this life-changing phase. You are also welcome to attend one of our courses created especially for your needs:
