Postpartum Chiropractic in Shoreditch & East London – Gentle Recovery for New Mums and Parents
Bringing a baby into the world is incredible — but let’s be honest, it’s also tough on your body. From carrying your little one during pregnancy to the physical demands of labour, your body has been through a huge transformation. Add sleepless nights, endless feeding sessions, and carrying your baby (and all their gear!) — and it’s no wonder many new parents experience back pain, neck stiffness, and exhaustion.
At Haptic Chiropractors in Shoreditch, we help postpartum mothers and new parents recover, rebalance, and feel more like themselves again with safe, gentle chiropractic care.
Why Postpartum Chiropractic?
Your body changes dramatically after birth. Hormones like relaxin, which loosened your joints during pregnancy, can linger for months, making your spine and pelvis less stable. Combine this with new daily movements like lifting, rocking, and feeding, and you have a recipe for aches and pains.
Common issues for new mums and dads include:
Lower back and pelvic pain
Neck and shoulder strain from feeding and holding baby
Wrist pain (sometimes called "mummy thumb") from lifting and carrying
Fatigue and poor posture from disrupted sleep
A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (2012) found that chiropractic care can help restore pelvic balance and reduce back pain in postpartum women.
