PREGNANCY PHYSIOTHERAPY

 

Supporting You Through Every Stage of Motherhood

Pregnancy can bring about a range of musculoskeletal conditions that are often overlooked or dismissed as simply a "normal" part of the experience. However, these issues can be both distressing and debilitating for many expectant mothers.

At Croydon Physio, we believe you deserve comprehensive, compassionate care throughout every stage of your journey. Our pre and postnatal physiotherapy services are tailored to support your body’s unique needs. By combining expertise in women’s health and specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapy, we offer a truly holistic approach to care.

We’re not only experts in pre and postnatal physiotherapy, but also in women’s health physiotherapy and beyond.

Our goal is not to limit you, but to empower you—to help you feel strong, supported, and confident in your body, so you can care for yourself as beautifully as you care for your baby.

Expert Care for Common Pregnancy-Related Conditions

At Croydon Physio, we specialise in the assessment and treatment of a wide range of musculoskeletal concerns commonly experienced during pregnancy, including:

  • Pelvic girdle pain (often referred to as "pelvic instability")

  • Lower back pain associated with the physical changes of pregnancy.

  • Coccyx (tailbone) pain that can arise during pregnancy.

  • Neck pain and tension headaches linked to postural changes and increased physical demands.

  • Thoracic and rib pain, often caused by postural shifts, breastfeeding positions, repetitive lifting, or settling techniques that may strain the spine.

  • Adaptation of exercise programs to help you stay fit and strong during pregnancy, including guided pregnancy Pilates and targeted exercises.

  • Hand and wrist conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, and general wrist pain, which are common in pregnancy.

We’re here to support you with expert guidance, safe movement strategies, and tailored care that evolves with your body through each stage of pregnancy.
