This lecture offers clearer insight to midwives on the biomechanical nature of common prenatal and postpartum pain patterns including pain of the round ligament, pubic symphysis, hips, and low back. Dr. Bussetto discusses the postural abnormalities and muscle imbalances that increase the frequency, severity, and duration of prenatal pain. Practical solutions to reduce and resolve these pain patterns including hands-on treatment, home exercise recommendations, and nutritive support are also discussed and demonstrated.
