👶A large prospective multicentre observational study (OSTINF) looked at the effects of osteopathic care for over 1000 infants in their first year of life, based on parent-reported symptoms across common concerns such as infant asymmetry, plagiocephaly (flat head), feeding issues, excessive crying, and sleep disturbances.

👉 The Results
• 82% improvement in idiopathic asymmetry
• 51% improvement in plagiocephaly measures
• 77% improvement in feeding difficulties
• 70% improvement in excessive crying
• 56% improvement in sleep issues

✨ Safety: No serious adverse events were reported among over 3,000 treatments, and only mild transient reactions were noted in a small percentage of cases. Osteopathy was associated with positive changes in infant wellbeing and was well tolerated.

⚠️ Disclaimer:
This was an observational study relying on parent-reported outcomes and does not establish definitive cause-and-effect or replace medical advice. More randomised controlled research is needed to confirm efficacy. Discuss any care decisions with qualified health professionals.

3 exercises for early postpartum 🌿

1️⃣ 360 Breathing
The most simple and effective exercise that you can do postpartum is to start connecting to your breath. Good breathing patterns are important for protecting your pelvic floor, improving circulation and drainage which is essential for healing and reconnecting with your core. Practice breathing in different positions, depending on your birth and what position you find most comfortable. As you breathe in, focus on your diaphragm moving down, your ribs expanding in all directions (hence the name 360 breathing) and see if you can feel the movement all the way to your pelvic floor. Your tummy will expand with the breath, but we don’t want all the breath making your stomach pop.

2️⃣ Book openings
This is a great exercise to keep thoracic cage mobility. It also starts engaging the abdominal muscles. Lie on your side, hips and knees bent, back in a straight line. Place both hands straight out in front of you, hand together. As you breathe in, open your top arm and reach behind you, try and keep the pelvis stable and you should feel your abdominal muscles working. As you breath out, bring your hand back to lie on top of the bottom arm. Start with 3-5 on each side and build up.

3️⃣ Angel wings
This is great for opening the chest up. You will spend hours looking down at your baby and feeding your baby, hey they are the best time wasters in the world, and what else would you want to look at? Angel wings exercise can be done lying on your back or standing against a wall. Take your arms out to the side, elbows bent and palms facing up. The aim is to keep the arms against the floor (or wall) as you move them slowly up and down. If your wrists, elbows or shoulders lift then you have gone too far. Keep the movement small and gradually build up.

Remember to listen to your body and if you experience any pain stop and seek advice from your health care provider.

If you have had a caesarean birth, breathing is the perfect place to start. The other exercises can be introduced as your pain and mobility levels improve.

During pregnancy our demand for oxygen increases but the growing baby can make it harder to breathe well. This can lead to poor breathing patterns to compensate (or perhaps your breathing pattern was not the best prior to pregnancy!).

A good breath pattern is where your diaphragm lowers and your lower ribs expand out, not just to the front of the body but to the sides and back as well (hence the name 360 breathing). As our diaphragm descends, our pelvic floor eccentrically lengthens which is really important for our pelvic floor health and function.

As pregnancy progresses, using the diaphragm becomes harder - especially if there’s already stiffness in the thoracic spine or ribs from desk or computer work.

Two common compensation patterns can develop:
🔹Upper-chest breathing: This relies on the neck, shoulders, and upper ribs, often increasing tension and sending pressure downward to the pelvic floor, which may contribute to pelvic floor issues.
🔹Leaning or arching backward: This creates more space to breathe but overstretches the front of the body, may contribute to diastasis, reduces abdominal support, and increases load on the back, often leading to mid or lower back pain.

If you’re experiencing neck or back pain during pregnancy, it may be worth taking a closer look at your breathing pattern.

During pregnancy, as your belly grows, your centre of gravity shifts forward and often you will have an increase in the lumbar lordosis (the low back curves more). This can cause the joints to be more compressed. The muscles of the low back and buttocks can work harder to stabilise the spine and pelvis, especially if your abdominal muscles aren’t offering as much support as needed. This all leads to low back pain and tension. Taking the weight off the baby bump allows the muscles and joints to have a rest. Introducing movement helps improve circulation and drainage to the area, along with helping the muscles to release.

How to do the exercises 👇🏻
Support the weight of your bump with your hands, you should feel this take some pressure off your low back muscles, fascia and joints. Keep supporting your bump and do the following pelvic movements:
1. Draw a figure of eight with your pelvis
2. Sway side to side
This should feel good, remember to listen to your body and stop if it’s not right for you.

If you find this helps but only for the short term, then there may be other supports or treatments that you could benefit from, such as support garments or osteopathic treatment.

If you try this, let us know in the comments if it helped your back pain?
