David is an excellent chiropractor! He's been treating my back for more than 15 years, which hasn't been easy with my medical issues. David also treated me through my pregnancies, giving outstanding care and support. I always get tremendous relief after an adjustment from David! Lauren and Robyn are lovely receptionists, who always make you feel welcome and valued. I highly recommended Family Life Chiropractic!!

I did a thorough search of where I wanted to go in all of Newcastle proper. As a mum who needed work done post-partum. Dr Diehm, has been excellent and effective. I feel a lot better in my body since having my children and my movements have been more smooth. I am grateful for Dr Diehm attention to detail and care in his work. The customer service that Lauren the receptionist has who is considering and caring to your time, always making us feel welcome. Side note: if you are an appreciator of photographic art. Dr Diehm also has some beautiful pieces, I recommend seeing them.

Patsy understands human structure and has the strength to ease the pain. Unlike many practitioners who cause pain her technique progressively unlocked muscle groups. Next day as I write this movement is easier... less pain and greater mobility. Recommend without hesitation.

David and the team are great. I started seeing him during my pregnancy as I was suffering from terrible back and pelvic pain. David's treatment made the world of difference and I am so glad I was referred to him by a friend. David has also just started seeing my newborn and his gentle treatments are also helping so much!

I was recommended to see a chiropractor for my baby as he was very unsettled whilst laying down, I took him down to dr David about 5 weeks ago the first 2 sessions he was very unsettled and clearly uncomfortable but dr David was very patient and helped calm him since going I have noticed a massive difference in his attitude throughout the day whilst sitting and laying. It’s been a massive help and I would recommend this practice to anyone.

Pregnancy Massage for Back Pain & Sciatica During Pregnancy

Lower back pain, pelvic discomfort, and sciatica are among the most common pregnancy-related complaints. As the body changes during pregnancy, increased pressure on the lower back, pelvis, and surrounding muscles can lead to pain, tightness, and reduced mobility.

Pregnancy massage Newcastle may help relieve pregnancy back pain and sciatica by reducing muscular tension, improving circulation, and supporting pelvic mobility and soft tissue function.

Many women find that regular prenatal massage helps improve comfort, movement, and overall wellbeing throughout each stage of pregnancy.

Feeling more comfortable in your body during pregnancy can make a meaningful difference in how you move through your day, rest at night, and connect with this important stage of life.
