How can pregnant mothers deal with pelvic pain?

Author: Yama Wong, Exercise Therapist | Pre-natal and Post-natal

Physiotherapy:
Physiotherapists can help restore normal joint position and function through specific exercises and manual therapy.

Prenatal Massage:
Therapists can use specific massage techniques to relax the muscles around the pelvis and lower lumbar spine, reducing soreness and discomfort caused by muscle tension.

Pilates Exercises:
Therapists can design specific Pilates exercises for pregnant women to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles, reduce instability caused by ligament laxity, and decrease the risk of pelvic misalignment and associated pain.

Wearing a Pelvic Support Belt:
This belt can help stabilize the pelvis and reduce joint movement.

Posture Adjustment:
Learn how to stand, sit, and move correctly to reduce pressure on the pelvic joints.

Avoid Specific Activities:
Avoid activities that may exacerbate pain, such as prolonged standing, repeated bending, and lifting heavy objects.
