Healing After Miscarriage: A Holistic Approach to Supporting
Your Body & Mind

There’s no right way to feel after a miscarriage. No script to follow, no timeline for healing. The loss is real, no matter how early or late it happened. It’s something your body carries, your heart feels, and your mind tries to make sense of.

A miscarriage is more than a medical event it’s an experience that affects every part of you. Whether you’re feeling grief, anger, exhaustion, or even relief, all of it is valid. Physically, your body is adjusting to changes it didn’t prepare for, and emotionally, you may be moving through waves of feelings that shift daily. That’s why true healing after miscarriage means caring for both your body and your mind.

We’re here to support you with a holistic approach that honors your experience, whether you need physical care, emotional support, or just space to process.

Physical Recovery: Restoring Balance in Your Body

Pregnancy, no matter how short, brings hormonal shifts, uterine changes, and physical strain on your body. After a miscarriage, your body needs time to recalibrate and heal. Below are keyways to nurture your body during this
healing process.

Chiropractic Care & Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

Your pelvis and lower back undergo changes during pregnancy, even in the early weeks. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can help realign the spine and pelvis, reducing tension and discomfort. Pelvic floor physiotherapy can also be beneficial, as miscarriage may place strain on pelvic muscles, leading to discomfort or dysfunction. A pelvic floor physiotherapist can help restore muscle function, alleviate tension, and support healing.

Acupuncture for Hormonal Balance & Emotional Support

Acupuncture is a powerful tool in supporting the body's natural healing process. It can help regulate hormones, improve circulation, and ease symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, or cramping. Beyond the physical benefits, acupuncture is also deeply grounding, offering emotional relief and reducing feelings of anxiety or depression that can accompany
miscarriage.

Naturopathic Care for Holistic Wellness

Naturopathic care takes a whole-body approach, addressing nutritional deficiencies, hormone regulation, and immune support. Herbal medicine, targeted supplements, and lifestyle guidance can help restore balance and optimize your body’s ability to heal naturally.

Emotional Healing: Holding Space for Your Heart

Miscarriage is an emotional and spiritual experience that requires care and space to process. Grieving is not linear, and allowing yourself to acknowledge your emotions, seek support, while giving yourself grace is essential. Below are some ways to support your emotional and spiritual well-being.

Psychotherapy & Counselling

Speaking with a therapist who understands the emotional weight of miscarriage can be profoundly healing. Having a safe space to express your grief, process feelings of loss, or simply be heard, can help you move forward with greater emotional clarity and compassion.

Massage Therapy for Stress Relief & Nervous System Support

Massage therapy does more than provide physical relaxation, it supports the nervous system, reduces stress hormones, and encourages the body to enter a state of healing. A gentle, nurturing touch can be comforting during this time, helping to alleviate tension and promote emotional release.

A Holistic Approach to Healing

True healing after miscarriage is about honoring your experience, giving yourself permission to grieve, and finding the right support for your journey.
