Motherhood Wellbeing Assessments

Understanding Your Body After Motherhood

As mothers, our bodies carry the story of everything we’ve been through; pregnancy, birth, sleepless nights, the mental load, and the emotional demands of caring for others.

Each experience leaves its imprint. Over time, these physical and emotional layers of tension can subtly shift how your body moves, how your breath flows, and how your nervous system adapts to daily stress.

At Organic Family Chiropractic, we take a different approach.

Rather than just focusing on symptoms, we look at how your nervous system and body’s tension patterns are responding to the ongoing demands of motherhood; physically, chemically, and emotionally.

Through gentle, neurologically focused chiropractic care, we help your body move out of survival mode and back into balance, supporting your ability to rest, regulate, and reconnect with yourself.

Because when your nervous system is calm and coordinated, everything else begins to flow more easily...your posture, your energy, your sleep, and your connection with those you love.

Key Signs You May Need Support

Persistent tension in your neck, shoulders, or jaw, even when you try to relax

Headaches or migraines that seem linked to stress, fatigue, or your cycle

Feeling emotionally overwhelmed or anxious, often without a clear reason

Poor sleep quality, difficulty falling or staying asleep, or waking up unrefreshed

A sense of being disconnected or “not yourself”, even years after giving birth

Brain fog, forgetfulness, or low focus that makes daily life feel harder than it should

What We Test For

Postural Alignment
We assess how your spine and pelvis are adapting after pregnancy, birth, and with your daily motherhood demands to identify areas of imbalance or compensation that contribute to tension and fatigue.

Movement Patterns
We observe how your body moves and stabilises, revealing where strain, restriction, or imbalance may be creating physical or emotional stress on your system.

Tissue & Muscle Tension
We feel for areas of chronic tightness or imbalance in the muscles and soft tissues, which can often reflect protective patterns from stress, trauma, or prolonged overuse.

Breathing Patterns

We evaluate how your breathing is supporting (or limiting) your body’s ability to regulate and calm the nervous system after years of stress or abdominal tension from pregnancy and birth.

Neurological Function
Using specific tests, we assess how your nervous system is adapting to ongoing stress including balance, coordination, and reflex patterns that indicate how well your body is regulating.

Strength & Stability Testing

We check how well your core, pelvic, and spinal muscles are supporting your posture and movement, helping us understand where your body needs the most support and care.

How It Works

Step 1

Initial Consultation

A relaxed phone consultation where we take the time to understand your story; your pregnancy, birth, and motherhood journey, as well as how you’re feeling right now.

This is where we begin to connect the dots and explore whether our care is the right fit for you.

Step 2

In Depth Assessment

Your in-person examination (30–40 minutes) allows us to assess your posture, movement, tissue tension, breathing, neurological patterns, and strength.

We’re looking at how your body and nervous system are adapting. It's not just about where it hurts, but why it hurts.

Step 3

Recommendations

During and after your assessment, we review your findings together and explain what they mean in a way that makes sense.

You’ll receive clear, honest recommendations on whether our care is the right next step for your healing.

Step 4

Begin Your Care Journey

If we both feel it’s a good fit, you’ll start our programme designed to support your nervous system, release stored tension, and rebuild resilience.

Each adjustment builds on the last all helping your body move from coping to truly thriving in just a few weeks.

Optional Add-On's To Support Your Recovery

Every mother’s journey is unique.

Sometimes, deeper insight into your internal balance can help us understand why your body may be struggling to regulate, recover, or feel energised, especially after years of stress or depletion.

To complement your chiropractic care, we offer a range of optional functional tests that can be added to your assessment or completed at a later stage in your care journey.
