Chiropractic care is safe and effective for pregnant women.

Doctors of chiropractic can alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms arising from the muscular, ligamentous, and biomechanical stresses encountered during pregnancy. We accomplish this through the use of a number of highly specialized procedures and techniques, including:

GENTLE SPINAL ADJUSTIVE PROCEDURES – specifically designed for pregnant women

Assist in maintaining a spine free from vertebral misalignments and fixations – optimizing spinal biomechanics.
Keep pelvis and spine in correct position/posture.
Assist in pain relief by (1) reflexively reducing pain levels, and (2) reducing spinal and pelvic stresses which produce soft tissue pain.
Keep tissues and biomechanics functioning optimally to minimize complications during birth.

THERAPEUTIC EXERCISES & STRETCHES – Safe for use during pregnancy

Keep spinal musculature strong, balanced, and pain-free
Enable spinal muscles to maintain the spine and body in a neutral, correct posture
Keep mom active and mobile

SOFT TISSUE WORK – Massage, trigger point work, soft tissue mobilization
