Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a new and exciting time, bringing new life into the world. There is so much change happening both mentally, physically and hormonally to support the growth of the baby.

As the pregnancy progresses, the physical changes that occur with pregnancy will place extra strain on certain joints and muscles, with the pelvic and back region is mostly affected. And we may also see pelvic floor changes with some urinary leakage as well.
