During pregnancy your body undergoes a great amount of change and development to accommodate your growing baby. The postural changes and increase in weight are obvious, but other changes may be more subtle like the effects of hormonal softening of ligaments and the position of the growing baby.

A combination of the above can put additional pressure on your joints and muscles of your spine and pelvis.

The most common complaints during pregnancy are:

  • Lower Back Pain
  • Sciatica
  • Pelvic Girdle Pain
  • Shortness of breath
  • Neck, shoulder and upper back pain
  • Swelling
  • Fatigue

Osteopathy is safe and gentle for both the mother and the baby. The techniques used during pregnancy are carefully selected to minimise any risk. These techniques are gentle and the comfort of the mother is always taken into consideration and may be adapted to suit each patient.

How we've helped ...

I must admit I was a little apprehensive when coming for my first osteopathic treatment. I went to see James with severe pain in my lower back. He soon put me at ease. After James made some adjustments in my back, applied various stretches and massage, I felt immediate relief. I was amazed at how quickly the pain improved and how much more mobile I felt. I will always use James for any necessary future appointments and I recommend him to anyone that suffers from back pain.

On my first visit to James I presented with a frozen shoulder, severe pain and mobility problems. With James’ knowledge and treatment I am now pain free with much improved mobility. James was able to provide an excellent, friendly, professional caring service and gave me the confidence to manage this debilitating condition and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

I have had many sessions with James Titmus as my osteopath, and I have always been impressed with his ability to get straight to the root of any physical problem, and to be absolutely clear-sighted in his choice of appropriate therapy. His firm belief in the benefits of relevant exercise sits well with his thoughtful understanding of the needs and capacity of his client, and the unerring intelligence and sensitivity with which he exercises this balance make him, for me, the ideal practitioner. I recommend him highly.
