Prenatal Care

Regularly scheduled prenatal visits with a chiropractor and/or acupuncturist while pregnant helps ease the aches and pains of pregnancy. As the body shifts to make room for a growing baby, chiropractic and acupuncture care can alleviate many common pregnancy pains like: nausea, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, upper and lower back pain, rib misplacement, sacroiliac pain, sciatica, pubic-bone pain, pelvic pain, swelling, carpal tunnel, and fatigue. Relieving these pains promotes better sleep, which promotes better health, which promotes a healthier pregnancy.

Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Treatment

Prenatal chiropractic treatment offers numerous benefits for both the mother and baby, including:

  • Relieves stress and anxiety levels
  • Reduces back pain, neck pain, and pelvic pain
  • Relieves foot and leg pain
  • Reduces the risk of premature birth

Postpartum Chiropractic

During pregnancy, the pelvis expands and the curve of the spine increases. After childbirth, the spine curve is restored to its original state, but the gap between the sacrum and the pelvis remains. You may have back pain after childbirth.
