If you are pregnant and experiencing discomfort, you may wonder if prenatal chiropractic care is safe. The answer is yes! Chiropractors receive specialized training on working with pregnant patients as part of their education. An expectant mother’s growing belly can often lead to back pain, which can be alleviated through chiropractic adjustments. As the baby grows, the mother’s posture changes, leading to increased discomfort. Chiropractors understand the importance of using a gentle touch to ensure that the growing baby is not harmed during treatment. Beyond pain relief, chiropractic care offers additional benefits during pregnancy. For instance, therapeutic massage can help strengthen the pelvic muscles, providing relief from abdominal pressure. During the final trimester, we may perform specific techniques to help the baby move into a more favorable position for natural delivery. Many chiropractors are trained in these special maneuvers to gently guide the baby into the correct delivery position. We also go beyond pregnancy care and offer chiropractic services to infants, children, and everyone in the family!
