Pregnancy pains can vary from low back pain to round ligament pain to heartburn. Our chiropractors use gentle adjustments to alleviate discomfort and improve mobility, helping expecting mothers feel more comfortable. Especially in late stages of pregnancy, when ligaments stretch and the spine is under great pressure, chiropractic care can provide immediate relief. Chiropractic adjustments can also help relieve other pregnancy symptoms like nausea and headaches.

While people often say to “sleep when you can,” pregnancy can disrupt sleep, causing insomnia and restlessness. By reducing pain and tension, chiropractic adjustments can help expecting mothers achieve a more comfortable, restful, and restorative sleep.  

Pregnancy can be a stressful time both physically and emotionally. Our prenatal chiropractic care can help reduce stress levels, promoting a more positive and relaxed mindset.

The Webster technique has been referred to as a baby turning technique by some. This is inaccurate. The aim of the technique is not to reposition a baby. Any change in fetal position is a byproduct of the focus of the technique, but it is not the intention. Any treatment that is specifically aimed at changing fetal position is the practice of obstetrics, which is outside of the scope of chiropractic. Chiropractic adjustments improve neurobiomechanical function of the sacral/pelvic area, so the pelvis is able to move properly, leading to a positive impact on the bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments nearby.

No matter how your birth goes, postpartum recovery can be difficult. A body that is better able to communicate and function is more likely to recover quicker and avoid complications. Regular chiropractic care helps the body to achieve proper alignment and work toward recovery more easily.
