Osteopathy during pregnancy and after giving birth in Sint-Niklaas
During pregnancy your body is constantly changing. When you are trying to conceive or recovering after giving birth, you may also have questions about physical complaints and changes.
Marie sees women at every stage of pregnancy and in the period after giving birth.
When can you see an osteopath during or after pregnancy?
You can book an appointment for, among other things:
• trying to conceive or fertility treatment
• pelvic, back, neck or shoulder complaints
• pelvic instability or postural complaints
• nausea, reflux or digestive complaints
• heavy legs, cramps or complaints consistent with carpal tunnel syndrome
• preparing the body for birth
• questions about the baby's position
• menstrual complaints
• recovery after giving birth
A calm approach, tailored to your pregnancy
A treatment is calm, with attention to your comfort. The approach is adapted to the stage of your pregnancy, your complaints and what you need at that moment.
After giving birth, too, we look together at how your body is recovering and what support may be appropriate.
You don't need a clear complaint to book an appointment. Questions about prevention, preparation or recovery are welcome too.
Osteopathy is complementary and does not replace medical care. For medical questions or complaints, always keep consulting your doctor, midwife or other healthcare provider.
We always coordinate with the care you already receive.
