The extent to which womens’ postures and movement patterns change after childbirth is somewhat ignored, possibly due to the fact that we do not measure the alignment and movement health of mothers until there are symptoms, if at all!

The changes are not necessarily due to pregnancy and childbirth but also the lifting and carrying that are necessary after childbirth. A proactive approach that routinely measures and prescribes personalised corrective exercise is needed - for everyone!

It is much easier to train a pain-free body, and to maintain an active lifestyle, both of which are positive for the physical and mental health of our beloved mothers.
