Osteopathy - Postnatal
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a beautiful approach to the harmony and health of the living body.
Osteopathy can facilitate and support this process by restoring movement, undo patterns of holding and bracing and acknowledge emotional components manifesting somatically in our bodies.
As an Osteopath I use gentle, hands-on treatments to recreate your body’s natural equilibrium, relieving pain and discomfort. Each treatment is unique resulting from a systematic assessment and diagnosis. Osteopathy helps to restore the optimal function of your body, allowing it to heal itself naturally.
How can Osteopathy support your recovery after giving birth?
Recovering from childbirth can take time, regardless of how smoothly the delivery went—and even more so if the birth was complicated. Giving birth is a physically demanding experience for every mother, and the recovery process can sometimes be overlooked in the midst of caring for a newborn.
However, the postpartum period is an ideal time to address any residual discomfort, as a woman’s body is often highly responsive in the weeks following labour.
Osteopathy can help you regain your strength and health, making it easier to meet the demands of new motherhood. Osteopathy can help you with:
- Post-natal check-up to support your well-being
- Rebalance any strains from pregnancy, birth and handling baby
- Nervous system regulation
- Coming home to your body
Also, if you’ve had a long or challenging labour, postnatal treatment can be particularly beneficial. Osteopathy can:
- Speed up your recovery by helping your body recover from the physical shock of birth
- Prevent long-term back and pelvic issues
Please note that treatment may leave you feeling a little tired afterward, so I recommend avoiding vigorous exercise for 48 hours following your appointment.
Typically, a treatment plan involves 2-4 sessions.

Join Chi for tomorrow's Autumn Moon Gratitude Circle: Self-Compassion and Restorative Yoga.
5.30pm - 7.30pm
Sat 4th Oct
Moon Women's Health, NW5
Under the luminous glow of the Autumn Moon, traditionally celebrated in the East as the Full Moon of gratitude and togetherness, we gather to pause, soften, and honour the light within us.
The evening begins with a quiet meditation to guide you inward, followed by an oracle card ritual and soulful journalling to open space for reflection.
We then move into a restorative yoga immersion, supported by bolsters and blankets. In this restful and comfortable practice, the body softens, the mind unwinds and the heart remembers its own light.
Gentle sounds of singing bowls will weave through the space, creating a field of stillness and belonging.
This will be a small group gathering, held with warmth and care.
All are welcome. No experience is needed, just come as you are.

Balance your body, before the Winter Chill settles in at this Monday's Acupuncture Collective. This month we also have a special gift for you... (find out more in our bio).
In Chinese medicine, our immune system is made up of layers of defence, and Acupuncture is our Holy Grail in fortifying these defences.
We often talk about health as a marathon, not a sprint. With winter - and all its demands on our immune system - right around the corner, now is the perfect time for a pre-emptive tune-up.
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, strengthening your Wei Qi (Protective Qi) now is the best way to prevent winter colds and keep your foundations strong.
Whether you've been managing chronic digestive issues, navigating hormonal wobbles, or seeking support for your mental well-being, our Collective haven is here to help you.
We'll be working to build that natural inner vitality so you can greet the colder months from a place of strength.
Our next Acupuncture Collective is taking place between 2pm to 8pm on Monday 6th October. Find more details in our bio.1 week ago
