Benefits of Pregnancy Care

There are many benefits to receiving regular chiropractic care while you’re pregnant. Alleviating nervous system interference can help you be more comfortable throughout your pregnancy, and keeping your pelvis aligned creates more space for your baby to grow and develop. Studies show that mothers who get regular care while pregnant have shorter labor and delivery times and require fewer interventions.

FAQs

How does chiropractic help during pregnancy?

As your baby grows, your center of gravity shifts. In addition, a hormone called relaxin is produced to allow the ligaments in your pelvis to relax. This combination can lead to instability in the spine, muscle strains, and pressure on the nerves, which may cause discomfort throughout the body. Chiropractic adjustments restore proper spinal and pelvic alignment to reduce this nerve interference and keep you more comfortable and mobile.

In addition to helping with aches and pains, pregnancy chiropractic may help function by improving nervous system integrity. This can help minimize swelling, morning sickness, hormone swings, and sleep disturbances. It may also help ensure an easier delivery.

What is the Webster Technique?

The Webster Technique is an analysis and adjusting technique designed specifically for pregnant women. It helps balance the bones, muscles, and nerves in the sacrum and pelvis. All of our chiropractors are certified in the Webster Technique.

When should I start pregnancy chiropractic care?

The earlier, the better—starting before you’re pregnant is ideal! But we tell patients that “today is the best day to start.” Even if you’re in your 39th week, we can still help.
