Osteopathy is not just a beneficial practice during pregnancy, but a discipline that will accompany you throughout the entire motherhood journey, from the moment you desire to become a mother.
In some ancient traditions, it was considered that the nine months before becoming pregnant they were also part of the conception process
Osteopathy supports women during this time of preparation, in the "before".
Thanks to precise techniques and a holistic view of the body, we support the body in its preparation for a future pregnancy.
We work on the organs to improve the flexibility of the entire digestive system, the mobility of the different diaphragms (yes, there's more than one!), we balance the autonomic nervous system, and most importantly, we release all possible gynaecological tensions.
We work as a team with different professionals (physiotherapists, homeopaths, psychologists and naturopaths) to work the ground if we see it useful and if the mother-to-be wishes it.
Marina, with more than 15 years of experience, accompanies many women in their search for pregnancy with patience and love.
During pregnancy, a period of great physical, emotional and internal changes, osteopathy continues to be of great help.
Through gentle, tailored techniques, it helps manage pain, improves posture, and supports tissues through their changes. At the same time, it promotes overall well-being, facilitating a more comfortable and healthier pregnancy experience.
During pregnancy, osteopathy offers a unique way to connect with the body's process of growth and change. It improves the body's adaptation to these changes, reducing stress and increasing a sense of well-being.
This connection and body awareness not only benefits during pregnancy but also prepares the mother for a more efficient and balanced recovery after birth.
We recommend coming once in each trimester so that we can keep an eye on these three stages with their challenges, changes and discoveries.
Osteopathy becomes an essential ally in the evolution of the body during this stage. Each stage of pregnancy needs its own adjustments, and here the osteopath's experience allows you to work on the areas that need it most at each stage.
Through gentle and specific techniques, we work to mitigate common discomforts such as lower back pain and sciatica, thus improving comfort during these months.
In addition, we focus on preparing your body for childbirth, using methods that promote proper pelvic alignment and increased flexibility.
These practices not only contribute to a smoother birth, but also help to reduce anxiety and stress, ensuring a more serene and positive motherhood experience.
This practice not only improves physical well-being, but also strengthens the emotional bond.
Many speak of the importance of pelvic alignment, and while it's important, the body is looked at as a whole. Even the thorax is fundamental for healthy adaptation during the 9 months, as it actively participates in the quality of managing contractions.
This stage is just the beginning of osteopathic support that can continue after childbirth, adapting to the body's changing needs at every stage of life.
Using a holistic approach, osteopathy helps mothers-to-be connect more deeply with their bodies and their babies, offering a smoother and more conscious transition into motherhood.
This practice not only improves physical well-being, but also strengthens the emotional and spiritual bond during this unique stage of life.
Marina and Nicolas, both parents and experienced osteopaths, cordially invite you to their practice to discover the benefits of prenatal and postnatal osteopathy.
With a deep understanding of the importance of these periods in a woman's life, they are dedicated to providing specialised and personalised care.

Osteopathy helps relieve back pain by adjusting postural imbalances and reducing muscle tension. It also works to improve mobility and alignment of the body, which is especially important as the body changes during pregnancy.
The frequency of visits varies according to individual needs. Generally, it is recommended to start with regular sessions and then adjust according to how the patient feels and the evolution of her pregnancy.
As well as relieving specific aches and pains, osteopathy can improve circulation, reduce stress and anxiety, and help in the management of pregnancy-related digestive changes. This contributes to overall well-being during this special time.
