pregnancy care

Pregnancy is a special time. During this time we have been given the sacred task of shaping the physical, emotional and the spiritual wellbeing of a new life. During these nine month there are also many physical, spiritual and hormonal changes that occur within. It is of utmost importance to take the best care for ourselves and our developing babies at this time.

In addition to basic pregnancy wellness including nutritional support and lifestyle changes, Naturopathic Medicine offers support to many common conditions of pregnancy including:

  • Morning sickness (nausea & vomiting)
  • Fatigue
  • High blood pressure
  • Digestive upset
  • Heartburn
  • Leg cramps
  • Threatened miscarriage
  • Constipation
  • Labour and delivery preparation
  • Helping to turn your baby before birth

Women often prefer a more gentle and natural approach to their health at this time, choosing to avoid or limit the use of potentially harmful medications.

Once your baby arrives we offer support in many areas including:

  • Improving your energy levels
  • Post-partum & infant nutrition
  • Insufficient milk supply
  • Breastfeeding including plugged ducts, mastitis, thrush
  • Postpartum blues

Post-partum is an important time for rebuilding your health and energy reserves. This is where we can help by offering support to nurturing you back to strong, vibrant health to enjoy this beautiful time.
