Pregnancy is a time of profound physical and emotional change. As the body adapts to accommodate a growing baby, many women experience discomfort, muscular strain, and joint issues. While some of these changes are natural, others can disrupt daily life and even affect labor and postpartum recovery. This is where osteopathy comes in—a safe, non-invasive therapy that supports the body’s ability to heal and adapt naturally.
At our Best maternity hospital in Bangalore, Dr. Merlin Kishore leads a holistic approach to maternal wellness. Our osteopathy services are tailored to meet the needs of expectant and new mothers, addressing structural imbalances, easing pain, and improving overall well-being.
Osteopathy is a system of hands-on therapy focused on the musculoskeletal system. Osteopaths use gentle manual techniques—such as stretching, massaging, and joint mobilization—to relieve tension, improve posture, and enhance the body’s natural healing processes.
