Physical Therapy: Physiotherapy is an important part of the obstetric case but is greatly neglected by health providers. In Fact there are many myths that exercises should be avoided in pregnancy to avoid any mishaps. Although strenuous exercises, weightlifting and heavy work should be avoided in pregnancy, light exercises and antenatal and postnatal exercises are a must if the woman wishes to stay slim and fit after delivery. According to the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists of the United Kingdom, the role of the Obstetric Physiotherapist is to help the women adjust to the physical changes throughout the pregnancy and puerperium to minimize the stress.
