Prenatal Chiropractic Care

Gentle care for a growing body and a growing life
Why Prenatal Chiropractic?
Pain Relief
Most women who have been pregnant can attest to discomfort from muscle strains, stress on their joints, and low back pain. This is especially true near the end of the pregnancy when the baby’s head presses down on the mother’s back, legs, and buttocks, irritating the sciatic nerve.
Your center of gravity shifts as your body makes room for the growing baby. This affects the curvature of your back and places extra stress on your spinal disks.
Many pregnant women rely on chiropractic care for natural, drug free relief from these common pregnancy pains.
Pelvic Alignment
Another reason to consider chiropractic care during pregnancy is to establish pelvic balance and alignment.
When your pelvis is aligned, more room is available for your baby to grow and to move into the best possible position for delivery.
This can result in an easier and safer delivery and increase your chances of having a natural, noninvasive birth.
Nutrition & Exercise
Your chiropractic physician is trained in a natural approach to maximizing health and can provide helpful advice for your pregnancy.
Pregnancy exercises will help strengthen your core muscles to protect your lower back and pelvis during pregnancy and delivery.
Nutritional support can help to reduce nausea and heart burn.
Ergonomic advice will help minimize stress on your body by teaching you the best positions for everyday activities such as sleeping, sitting, and lifting.
