Supporting Your Comfort and Wellbeing Throughout Pregnancy

Pregnancy brings incredible changes to your body, and every woman’s journey is unique. At HealthGuard Wellness, we understand that the physical, emotional, and chemical changes during pregnancy can impact your comfort and overall sense of wellbeing. Dr Stephen Osborne offers gentle, evidence-informed chiropractic care specifically tailored for expecting mothers in Toowoomba and the surrounding areas.

We believe in supporting you as a whole person, not just addressing individual symptoms. Our comprehensive approach considers how pregnancy affects your posture, spinal alignment, and overall comfort whilst respecting the remarkable process your body is going through.

Understanding How Pregnancy Affects Your Body

As your body adapts to pregnancy, your centre of gravity shifts and your posture naturally changes to accommodate your growing belly. These adaptations can create new stresses on your spine, pelvis, and surrounding muscles. Many women also experience increased emotional and chemical stress during this transformative time.
Our approach recognises that pregnancy wellness involves more than just physical comfort. We assess four key areas that can impact your wellbeing: physical structure, chemical balance, emotional stress, and environmental factors. This comprehensive view helps us understand what your body needs for optimal support during this special time.

What to Expect During Your Pregnancy Chiropractic Visit

Every visit begins with understanding your individual needs and concerns. We use gentle, low-force techniques specifically designed for pregnant women, with careful attention to positioning and comfort. Our assessment considers your changing posture, any areas of tension or discomfort, and factors in your daily life that might be impacting your wellbeing.

Dr Osborne takes time to discuss your pregnancy journey and any concerns you might have. We work collaboratively with your existing healthcare team – your GP, midwife, or obstetrician – to provide complementary support that enhances your overall care. Each care plan is personalised to your specific needs and comfort level.
