A recent study shows that the majority of pregnant women do not change their gait to accommodate for the anatomical changes of their body during pregnancy, despite the “waddling gait” that many soon-to-be moms feel they adopt. Thus, there may be increased stress on the hip abductors, hip extensors, and ankle plantar flexor muscles during walking that can cause musculoskeletal pain during pregnancy.

At The Winchester Institute, Dr. Winchester and Dr. Sneyd know that with the changes of a pregnant woman’s body, it is important to strengthen the musculoskeletal system to prevent unnecessary pain during this time.  It is our goal to allow a mother to be as comfortable as possible by helping them to manage the many demands of pregnancy.
