Pelvic Pain:
Pelvic pain, including symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD) and sacroiliac joint pain, is common during pregnancy due to increased pressure and hormonal changes. Sarah utilizes gentle manipulation and soft tissue techniques to restore alignment and reduce pain and discomfort in the pelvic region.

As the uterus expands, it can put pressure on the ribcage, leading to rib pain and discomfort. Sarah addresses rib pain by gently releasing tension in the muscles surrounding the ribcage, promoting better breathing and improved comfort.
