Pregnancy and
Post Natal Care
Pregnant women often have a team of practitioners supporting them along their journey from conception to birth and beyond and in recognition of this, Dr. Carla collaborates with a wide variety of practitioners including Medical Doctors, Midwives, Physiotherapists, Naturopaths, Chinese Medicine (Acupuncture) practitioners and Calm Birth instructors to optimise treatment outcomes.
Post-natal care is a time of recovery from the birth, adapting to life as a parent and learning to breastfeed and nurture your baby. Dr. Carla provides support and guidance through this transition continuing with gentle chiropractic care to address postural strain post birth and in cases of mastitis, offers Cold Laser Therapy.
Dr. Carla uses a variety of techniques including cranial therapy, SOT, activator, manual diversified, Webster Technique, muscle rehabilitation exercises, soft tissue massage and release, cold laser therapy, and functional neurology.
