Prenatal Conditions

What are Prenatal conditions?

The Prenatal period is incredibly important as it impacts both your experience before and after birth, and your infants health outcomes after birth. Ensuring that nutritional deficiencies, pain, foetal positioning, weight, and infections are managed/resolved is critical to provide you with the best birth and postpartum experience possible. During this wonderful time, certain exercises can be performed to prepare the pelvic floor for labour and birth. Additionally, nutritional deficiencies can be balanced prior to birth to ensure that your infant receives adequate nutrition and that you are not deficient in the postpartum period.
