Adapted training for pregnant and new mothers
With the right follow-up, guidance and, not least, training, pregnant and new mothers can prevent and prevent lasting injuries.
Physical activity is important during pregnancy. HelseNorge recommends that all pregnant women stay physically active as it has a positive impact on the health of mother and child. All pregnancies are different: Dr. Dropin Fysikalske has experienced physiotherapists who can guide you, set up an exercise program and monitor you during and after pregnancy. We will make sure that you feel safe and looked after during a wonderful but vulnerable time in your life.
Infants and parents
After giving birth, women are exposed to wear-and-tear injuries in the muscles and bones. Our physiotherapists have extensive experience with exercises and carrying techniques to treat and prevent wear and tear injuries, prevent abdominal pain and reduce stress.
In addition, our physiotherapists have special expertise in infants' motor skills (0-12 months) and their stages of development. Through our expertise, we will be able to map the child's development and take measures if the child is not developing as normal. We can also offer treatment advice in connection with abdominal pain and colic, sleep difficulties and lying position.
Pelvic floor problems
It is common to have pelvic pain during and after pregnancy. This does not mean that the pain should be dismissed or that one should not take the pain seriously. 62% of all pregnant women are reported sick due to ailments related to pregnancy, and pelvic joint pain is one of the most common causes. Our therapists can assist in loosening the muscles for immediate pain relief, assist with exercise programs and facilitation for rehabilitation and prevention of pain before and after birth.
Pelvic floor examinationHow to find the right resting position?
Being pregnant can be both physically and mentally demanding. Finding a good resting position can help you reduce stress and physical strain, among other things.
Pelvic pain during pregnancy
About one in five pregnant women gets pelvic pain in Norway every year. The pain can come both early and late in pregnancy. They are often located at the two pelvic joints at the back of the pelvis, but can also be in front of the symphysis (pubic bone). The pain can radiate to the seat and back of the thighs. Walking, sitting and standing over time, posture change, forward bending and lifting are often painful.
