Pregnancy and postpartum care
Pregnancy asks the body to renovate while staying open for business, and postpartum asks even more with less sleep. We work with both seasons: prenatal massage with proper positioning, physiotherapy for the aches of a changing frame, and counselling for the parts nobody photographs.
How it tends to show up
- A low back and pelvis renegotiating their contract by the week
- Hips, ribs, and feet with new opinions
- A postpartum body you are still being reintroduced to
- Tiredness with a side of feelings nobody warned you about
How we approach it
Devon holds additional prenatal and postpartum training and keeps a side-lying setup ready, so treatment stays comfortable at every stage. No special pillow arrangements to apologize for; it is all just ready.
For pelvic girdle pain, back pain, and the staged return to lifting and activity after birth. Plans account for the fact that you cannot exactly schedule rest right now.
Ruth works with the transition itself: identity, overwhelm, and the gap between how this season was supposed to feel and how it does. Video sessions exist for a reason, and nap-time bookings are normal here.
The six-week myth
The six-week checkup is a milestone, not a finish line. Bodies do not read calendars: tissue keeps remodelling for months, and the right time to start rehabilitation or treatment is when you have the capacity to, not when a date arrives. There is no such thing as too late to start, and very little that counts as too early to ask about.
If you are unsure whether something is worth booking for, that is exactly what a phone call is for. The front desk will not make you decide alone.
