Pregnancy and Chiropractic Care

Pregnancy takes everything you previously understood about your body and throws it out the window, forcing you to adjust to a new “normal.” As a result, you are likely to experience increased curvature in your spine, pelvic changes, and posture changes associated with pregnancy. These can lead to a misaligned spine and sore joints, making an often uncomfortable experience a little more complicated.

Chiropractic adjustments throughout pregnancy will help maintain pelvic balance and ensure your baby has room to develop. In addition, a balanced pelvis gives the baby more room to move and rotate into the ideal birthing position, reducing the chance of experiencing difficult labor and delivery.

Our chiropractic pregnancy techniques focus on gentle movements that help relax supporting ligaments and muscles, realign the spine, and reduce stress on the uterus.

Did you know that babies experience a partial dislocation during the birthing process? As the baby’s body and spine adapt to be delivered through the birth canal, its vertebrae can fall out of alignment. Dr. Chris’s youngest patient was only three hours old! Pediatric chiropractic care is beneficial at birth and throughout your child’s life. Learn more on our Pediatric Chiropractic Care Page.
