What is Pregnancy Pain?
Pregnancy Pain most commonly affects the lower back, hips, pelvis, and ribs - and its pretty obvious why these areas are the ones that feel it the most, because they are all the areas that are most impacted by a rapidly growing bubba!
Symptoms include lower back pain and sensations of pinching, catching, pulling and compression; sciatica-like pain that affects the bum, hips and legs; Pelvic and Sacroiliac Joint pain from the pelvis expanding; hip joint pain; shortness of breath and pain on deep breathing; other leg pains like knee, ankle and foot pain and swelling.

What kinds of treatments help Pregancy Pain?
The techniques I've found that work the best for people with Pregnancy Pain include Active Release of the hips and glutes, Myofascial Release for the lower back and ribs, taping for lower back and Sacroiliac stability and pain relief. Taping can also be used for fluid drainage for swollen joints - hello, cankles!

Lets start with your Initial Consultation and Treatment.
A typical treatment plan for Pregnancy Pain depends very much on your situation - how far along you are, what kind of pain you're having, how intense it is and if you have any pre-existing pains that are being flared up during your pregnancy.
Most women find they come in every 2-4 weeks to start with, and bring the treatments closer together as they get closer to their due date and the pressure and weight becomes more uncomfortable.

"This is my second pregnancy. I wish I knew about this for my first one! My back and hips get so sore and I can't find a comfortable way to lay down. Even breathing hurts sometimes. I feel so much better after I get my massage!" Katrina
