Back & Sciatic pain in pregnancy

The Alexander Technique is a method of movement re-education that can be used to improve posture, reduce pain and tension, and enhance overall well-being.  

One of the key principles of the Alexander Technique is the idea of releasing unnecessary tension and allowing the body to move freely and naturally.  The Alexander Technique can be a particularly useful tool for correcting poor pelvic positioning during the later months of pregnancy.  This is important for pregnant women, as tension in the pelvis can cause low back and sciatic pain as well as making it difficult for the fetus to move into the optimal position for birth. 

By releasing tension and promoting better alignment, this gentle and non-invasive technique can help to restore balance to the body thereby helping baby to move into optimal position, facilitating smooth labor and delivery, as well as resolving low back and sciatic pain.
