Osteopathy & Postpartum

The postnatal period, also known as the "fourth trimester," is a time of recovery and adjustment for a woman's body after childbirth. During this phase, the body continues to undergo significant changes, and osteopathy can play a crucial role in supporting this transition. Aurélie welcomes patients for postpartum osteopathy in Antibes, Monaco, Beausoleil and across the French Riviera. 

Supporting your recovery

Postpartum care may help with:

• back or pelvic discomfort
• tension related to feeding or carrying your baby
• postural changes
• general fatigue and physical strain
