Chiropractic and Pregnancy

Did you know that about 75% of pregnant mums suffer from pain in their back or pelvis while they are pregnant which is why they seek chiropractic care to help them.

Pregnancy brings about significant changes to a woman's body, including alterations in posture, center of gravity, and the release of hormones that relax ligaments in preparation for birth. These changes, while necessary for a healthy pregnancy, can often lead to discomfort, particularly in the back and pelvis.

Chiropractic care during pregnancy focuses on maintaining proper pelvic alignment and spinal function, which may help reduce pregnancy-related discomfort and prepare the body for an easier birth. Techniques are specifically adapted for pregnant women, using specialized equipment and gentle approaches that avoid putting pressure on the abdomen.

Many pregnant women find that regular chiropractic care helps them stay more comfortable during pregnancy and may even contribute to a smoother labor and delivery experience.
