Abstract:

Low back pain is a common occurrence in pregnant and non-pregnant patients. Pregnancy causes many anatomic and physiologic changes in the body and invariably leads to altered stresses on the musculoskeletal system. These alterations in the body can persist into the post-partum period as somatic dysfunctions. This case report outlines the importance of an osteopathic approach to address somatic dysfunctions related to low back pain of the pregnant and/or post-partum patient. A 39-year-old female presented with low back pain that was exacerbated by her pregnancy, which has continued into the post-partum period. She was found to have significant somatic dysfunctions related to her condition. An osteopathic approach was utilized to relieve her low back pain and improve her function with all the duties required to care for a newborn.
