The pelvis softens during pregnancy in preparation for childbirth. This can cause complaints in the lower back, pelvis, pubic bone, buttocks, hips. This can also give radiance in the legs. These complaints can hinder you from performing daily activities and enjoying your pregnancy!

Don’t walk too long in pain. That is a shame and can hinder your enjoyment of your pregnancy. You can often get your complaints under control with just a few treatments.

Pelvic therapists at Sens moves your Eindhoven provide exercises before pregnancy and after childbirth. This is to learn to use the pelvic floor, pelvic and back muscles in the correct way again.

Pelvic floor problems are common during pregnancy and after delivery.

Common problems are:

– Urinary leakage

– Loss of stool

– Prolapse of the bladder or uterus, a ‘heavy feeling from below’

– Frequent urge or frequent urination

– Pelvic floor muscles too tense

– Pain during intercourse

Your pelvic therapist will teach you step by step to regain control of your pelvic floor muscles.

Sleeping problems during pregnancy are common. It is more difficult to find a comfortable position, you sleep a lot lighter due to the hormones, frequent urination and pain when turning. Dreaming often and being afraid of everything that is to come is also very common.

Sleep therapy for pregnant women can offer a solution.

You will get started to map the sleep pattern, and then get started with practical tips and exercises.

Due to all the changes (physical, emotional) in your body during pregnancy, your breathing may no longer feel like it did before pregnancy. This may make you breathe less efficiently.

The therapist will work with you to help you breathe relaxed and to bring peace to the body. We can determine and visualize your breathing with special measuring equipment. This allows us to provide very specific advice / exercises to improve your breathing techniques.

Unfortunately, it often happens that complaints arise during or after delivery. Complaints that you can think of are pain in the coccyx, pubis, buttocks, lower back or pelvis. Call us as soon as possible to discuss. We try to give you the best possible advice or come to your home to treat you immediately.

Pregnancy massage has the following positive effects:

• Relieving pregnancy ailments
• Your muscles become more flexible and therefore less likely to cause pain (cramps, etc.)
• It stimulates blood flow
• Improves the transport of nutrients and oxygen through your body
• It offers relaxation for both mother and child
• Helps with poor sleep

We use Volatile pure essential oils.

The intensity of the massage is tailored to your wishes.

Every massage is different and therefore unique.

For this massage we at Sens Beweegt Je have a special Prental massage table with a recess for the abdomen and breasts. This allows you to simply lie on your stomach during the massage. The abdomen is well supported. If you do not like this, you can also be massaged on the side or sitting on a massage chair.

Pregnancy massages are given from 12 weeks until delivery.

Unfortunately, the pregnancy massages are not reimbursed by the health insurance company. The costs of the massages are:

45 min € 40

60 min € 50

90 min € 70
