Introduction to women’s health osteopathy
Osteopathy is a holistic approach to health which focuses on the body’s natural ability to heal and regulate itself. It uses gentle, hands-on techniques which can help to address imbalances, and release tension from the body.
Women’s bodies change through pregnancy, recovery after birth and the natural shifts of the menopause. These changes can sometimes bring aches, discomfort, or physical tension which has an impact on your everyday wellbeing.
Osteopathy offers a natural medication free approach, tailored to you and your body.
Osteopathy for women
You might be looking for support with physical tension or discomfort, aches and strains during pregnancy, general post-natal recovery and postural changes after birth, support during perimenopause or menopause related changes, gentle pelvic care and awareness.
We take the time to understand what’s going on for you physically and emotionally, and tailor your care accordingly.

FAQs
Osteopathy offers a gentle, hands on holistic approach that looks beyond your symptoms to help your body function as a whole. Female health issues can involve a unique set of physical challenges throughout life. Whether you are dealing with pregnancy related discomfort, pelvic floor issues or postnatal recovery, osteopathy offers natural support to ease symptoms, improve function, and enhance overall wellbeing.
While osteopathy does not treat hormonal imbalances, many women experiencing physical changes during hormonal transitions such as menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause seek osteopathic care to support their comfort, mobility, and general wellbeing.
Osteopaths use a range of hands-on techniques tailored to each individual. Techniques used in osteopathic treatment for women, especially during pregnancy, after birth, or around menopause, may be adapted to suit the body’s changing needs. These may include gentle soft tissue work, guided joint stretches and tailored or breathing advice. All techniques are discussed with you beforehand and are always guided by your comfort and goals.
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer — women’s wellness is a wide-ranging topic, and how often you see an osteopath depends on your individual needs, goals, and how your body responds to treatment. Some women come for support during a particular life stage, like pregnancy or after birth, while others choose occasional maintenance visits to help manage physical tension or improve comfort. Your osteopath will always discuss what feels appropriate for you and review this regularly.
Osteopathy doesn’t treat fertility problems, but some women choose it to support general wellbeing, reduce tension, and manage stress while going through fertility investigations or treatment. Your osteopath will work alongside any other medical care you’re receiving.
