Hi All


Partner is really struggling with back pain since giving birth a week ago.


We both have physio on occasion at ESPH but wondering if anyone has had experince of specialist post natal massage / physio / osteopathy?


She had an epidural and therefore wondering if consideration needs to be given for this when working on her back?

I dont know with regards to epidural however I also had appalling postnatal back pain (some days dare i say i was in more pain than labour!!) however at 2wks old i took my baby to see a cranial osteopath and he commented on how i was walking so i explained. I had 2 sessions with him and I was good as new. After the first session i found i could move and turn over in bed like i had before. I can't recommend him high enough.


His name is Naval and is based in Clapham - his number is 02077389199 - I can't remember the name of his practice.


If you have any further questions please just ask


Good luck with your new baby

I would recommend Elaine at the Therapy Rooms above Health Matters. She's a cranial osteopath who does a lot of work on mothers and babies. I had a lot of back pain with my first child, i thought it might be related to the epidural i had too. I didn't have an epidural with my second child and no back pain either.


Good luck!

I would be happy to help! I have experience with both pre and post natal massage and often use thai massage as well as Swedish Massage to help ease any tension aswell as correcting any dissalignment caused by the pregnancy and birth.

If you would like to talk to me or make an appointment, you can call me on: 07800 636266 or pm me.

I have many recommendations for my treatments on the forum, if you search my username you'll see!

Best wishes

Amy

    • I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!  
    • Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter. 
    • So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
    • I would hope that is extremely unlikely. If people accidentally vote for someone, that's their own fault, isn't it?
