Cranio-Sacral therapy for Pregnancy
In your first session, your therapist will take a full medical case history, including how far along you are and any problems / problem areas you might want to some relief. This massage will be carried out lying face up or lying on your side depending on how far along you are with your pregnancy. Here in clinic we concentrate on the aches and pains during pregnancy and our aim is to help you minimize the discomfort as your bump gets bigger. We also can relieve your stress if you want to just relax and get time for yourself which is important at this time. I have found sometimes that stressed mothers cam have babies that find it difficult to settle down and get off to sleep.
I will look at posture, joints, muscle movement patterns / restrictions. I would recommend you wear bra, vest, leggings or shorts. I will at first appointment ask questions about current problem, past injuries, operations, other investigations, sports and exercise routine and other medical care / medication you have received. Be aware that the case history part will take about 20 minutes and recommend you book a longer session if you wish to start treatment straight away.
