Osteopathy at Home
in Amsterdam
During pregnancy, for babies and post-partum care
An osteopathic treatment at home can be a practical and comfortable option when it is not easy for you to come to the practice. I offer home treatments in Amsterdam and the surrounding area, with a focus on pregnancy, babies, and post-partum recovery.
During Pregnancy
Pregnancy brings many changes to your body. Osteopathy may help with, for example:
back pain
tension in the neck and shoulders
pelvic and pelvic floor complaints
reduced movement and physical tension
Post-partum
Care
Giving birth is physically demanding on the body. Post-partum support may focus on:
back pain
tension in the neck and shoulders
complaints around a C-section, episiotomy, or other scar tissue
pelvic pain or tension
Osteopathy for Babies
A home treatment can also be a comfortable option for babies. You do not have to travel to the practice, and the treatment takes place in their familiar home environment.
Parents may seek osteopathic care for:
a preferred head position
restlessness
feeding or sucking difficulties
excessive crying
With babies, I use gentle hands-on techniques and adapt the treatment to their age and individual needs.
