42% of births in England are now by Caesarean section. 👇🏻

This isn’t about women choosing an “easy option”.

It’s about birth within a maternity system under strain.
The Maternity & Neonatal Infrastructure Review found:
• Over 50% of maternity units are rated unsatisfactory
• 42% need major repair or replacement
• 7% face risk of imminent breakdown

As Maria Elliott, Founder of The Mummy MOT, explains:
“Caesarean birth is now a reality for over four in ten women. We fully support a woman’s right to choose how she gives birth – but women must also be given clear, honest information about recovery.”

Research is clear:
• Birth type alone does not determine mental health outcomes
• Emergency Caesarean sections carry higher psychological risk due to trauma and urgency
• Early physical and mental health support makes the biggest difference to recovery

A Caesarean is major abdominal surgery. Healing involves multiple layers of tissue and can affect core strength, pelvic health, movement and scar function – long after the scar looks healed.

With the right postnatal assessment and support, women can recover well.

That support should be routine, not optional.
Birth is birth. Let’s prioritise mothers. 🩷

🌟 Incredible C-Section Scar Transformation! 🌟

One of our wonderful patients has kindly let us share the transformation of her C-Section scar following 5 sessions of Scar Therapy with Lymphatouch with .

Swipe to see the amazing before & after results✨

At One Health Osteopathy Clinic, we’ve been working with this lovely patient to improve the look, feel, and function of her C-section scar. Here’s what happened over 5 sessions::

📸 After just 1 session:

✅ Immediate improvement in circulation & tissue mobility
✅ Reduced tightness & pulling around the scar
✅ Skin looks less inflamed and feels softer

📸 After 5 sessions:

✅ Noticeable reduction in the overhang as tissues lift and reshape
✅ Restored sensation where there was numbness
✅ Significant pain relief and more freedom of movement
✅ Scar feels less tethered, allowing for better core function

💡 Why does this work?

Scar Therapy with Lymphatouch gently mobilises scar tissue, improves lymphatic drainage, and boosts healing—helping to reduce tightness, discomfort, and the "stuck" feeling many women experience after a C-section.

💬 Have a C-section scar that feels tight, numb, or uncomfortable?

You don’t have to live with it! DM us or book an appointment today to start your scar recovery journey. 💖
