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 us this Saturday, on World Menopause Day, to experience a unique gathering blending a Cacao Ceremony, Restorative Yoga, and Sound Bowl Immersion.
Wherever you are on your menopause journey, we invite you to join us in a restorative session to celebrate the feminine.
Caroline and Ali will be weaving their shared experiences to create a unique gathering that blends a Cacao Ceremony, Restorative Yoga, and Sound Bowl Immersion.
Together, we’ll rest, restore, and open our hearts.
Is this new to you? Here’s what you can expect:
✨ Cacao Ceremony
For centuries, cacao ceremonies have been practiced as heart-opening rituals. The gentle medicine of cacao supports emotional balance and self-love. We’ll set intentions to guide you forward and give you support to carry them into the world.
✨ Restorative Yoga
Ali’s gentle, floor-based practice that uses props to hold and support the body. By slowing down and resting deeply in each posture, you’ll soften tension, calm your nervous system, and reconnect with your body in a tender, loving way.
✨ Sound Bowl Healing
Caroline’s sound bowls will guide you into a deeply immersive state, where vibration and sound invite the body to release, rebalance, and restore harmony.
Come as you are, leave with a lighter heart.
