Many of our pregnant patients are referred to Caplan Chiropractic by their midwife or OB-GYN because safe, gentle chiropractic care offers proven benefits to both Mom and Baby. Some of the many benefits of prenatal chiropractic care included Creates pelvic balance which prepares the pelvis for an easier pregnancy and birth. Reduces undue tension to the uterus, which creates increased ease and comfort throughout pregnancy and birth. Decreases the need for c-sections, epidurals, forceps or other interventions allowing for a safer, easier, natural birth.

Birth is traumatic for you and your baby, and getting your body and nervous system back to optimal function through postnatal care can give you the energy to enjoy time with your new baby and truly bond.
