Antenatal Physiotherapy
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it also brings significant physical and emotional changes to a woman’s body. Antenatal physiotherapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy designed to support expectant mothers throughout pregnancy by improving comfort, mobility, and overall well-being.
As the baby grows, changes in posture, weight distribution, and hormonal levels can lead to common issues such as back pain, pelvic pain, swelling, muscle weakness, and fatigue. Antenatal physiotherapy focuses on safe exercises, posture correction, breathing techniques, and relaxation methods to help manage these challenges effectively.
A trained physiotherapist guides pregnant women through gentle strengthening and stretching exercises that support the spine, pelvis, and core muscles. Special attention is given to pelvic floor muscle training, which plays a vital role in supporting the uterus, bladder, and bowel, and also prepares the body for labor and postnatal recovery.
Antenatal physiotherapy not only helps relieve pain but also improves circulation, reduces stress, enhances sleep quality, and builds confidence for childbirth. With proper guidance, expectant mothers can enjoy a healthier pregnancy and prepare their bodies for a smoother delivery.
