Postpartum Chiropractic Care in Chislehurst, England
Smoother Recovery
Postpartum
The fourth trimester refers to the first three months after birth — a time of major adjustment as your body recovers from pregnancy and labour, and you adapt to life with your new baby.
Many new mums find they’re still experiencing lingering pregnancy aches or discover new discomforts as their daily activities change. With the hormone relaxing still in your system, your ligaments remain looser, and your body is naturally readjusting. Add to this the constant bending, lifting, and feeding, and it’s no surprise many new mums experience back, neck, and joint pains.
We’re here to help you through this important recovery phase, providing gentle, safe chiropractic care to ease discomfort and support your body’s healing.
Smoother Recovery
Caring for Yourself is Caring for Your Family
It’s easy to prioritise your baby’s needs over your own, but looking after your health isn’t selfish — it’s essential. When you feel stronger and more comfortable, you’re better able to care for your growing family without the added strain of pain or injury. We often see new mums dealing with:
- Hours spent feeding in static positions
- Lifting baby seats, prams, and cots in awkward postures
- Sleep deprivation and awkward sleeping positions
- Physical stresses that build up without realising
Common Postpartum Challenges We Help With
- Back and neck pain
- Pelvic girdle pain (PGP) and post-pregnancy pelvic discomfort
- Post C section & birth recovery
- Joint strains from lifting, carrying & feeding
- Muscle fatigue and postural stress
- Pelvic floor and core muscle weakness
- Discomfort from awkward feeding or sleeping positions
If you experienced pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy, you may have a higher chance of ongoing postpartum discomfort — especially with the added physical demands of newborn care. Our chiropractors are skilled in helping mums regain stability and strength, reducing pain and preventing longer-term issues.
Supporting Core and Pelvic Floor Recovery
Your core and pelvic floor muscles play a crucial role in supporting your spine and posture. After birth, these muscles can weaken, leaving you more vulnerable to aches and strains. Chiropractic care, alongside specific strengthening exercises, can help improve muscle tone and support your body’s recovery.
Our experienced perinatal chiropractors provide tailored care to help you feel more stable, strong, and confident as you navigate life after pregnancy.
Nurturing You Through Motherhood
No matter your postpartum journey, our caring team is here to help. We’re passionate about supporting new mums through the challenges of recovery, ensuring you feel your best as you care for your little one.
