Pregnancy brings huge changes to the body and for many women, that can come with aches, pelvic discomfort, or back pain along the way.

While symptoms like pelvic girdle pain (PGP), lower back pain, or discomfort turning in bed are very common during pregnancy, understanding why they happen can often make the experience feel less worrying and easier to manage.

We’ve put together a new guide explaining some of the physical changes that happen during pregnancy, why they can sometimes lead to discomfort, and what supportive treatment options are available.

At Morningside Chiropractic, our Pregnancy Trained Chiropractors, (Katie & Vicky) regularly support women across Edinburgh with gentle, pregnancy-specific care designed to help them stay comfortable and confident throughout pregnancy.

If you’re currently pregnant — or know someone who is — feel free to save or share this with them 🤍

Back and pelvic pain are common during pregnancy — but they don’t have to be ignored. Learn why pregnancy causes pain and how safe, gentle care can help.

🌱 Gardening causing back pain?

As the weather improves, we often see an increase in back pain and sciatica linked to gardening.

While it’s a great way to stay active, long periods of bending, lifting, and repetitive tasks can quickly lead to strain — especially after a quieter winter.

We’ve put together a practical guide covering:
✔ Common gardening mistakes that lead to back pain
✔ Simple ways to protect your back
✔ Safe lifting and posture tips
✔ What to do if your back hurts after gardening

👉 Read the full guide here:

💡 A few small changes can make a big difference to how your back feels.

Gardening causing back pain? Chiropractor Alan Cavanagh explains why it happens and how to prevent it — with practical tips on posture, lifting, pacing, and what to do if your back hurts after a session.
