Understanding Chiropractics for Pregnancy

Regular adjustments during pregnancy not only help with pain relief but also can help ensure a safe pregnancy, a more pleasant labor, and healthier birth. Benefits of prenatal adjustments include:

  • Ease of pregnancy symptoms such as low back pain, nausea, pubic bone pain and sciatica.
  • Heightened immune system for both mom and baby to allow the body to heal itself.
  • Better positioning of baby for delivery. When mom’s spine and hips are out of alignment, the baby can end up sideways, breech, or posterior, often making the birthing process traumatic.
  • Shortened delivery. With an ideal position of the baby and proper spinal alignment of mom’s skeletal structure, Chiropractic can help decrease the duration of labor.
  • Postpartum healing. Misalignment can occur during labor, from breastfeeding posture, bottle-feeding, and carrying new little ones. Adjustments can help align the spine to give the body the best opportunity to heal itself.
  • The Webster technique is a chiropractic analysis and gentle adjustment of the sacrum. The intent is to improve the nervous system for optimal function. Balancing the pelvis reduces tension in the attached muscles and ligaments. If the pelvis is not balanced, the uneven pulling on these muscles and ligaments may restrict the baby’s ability to get into the best position for birth.
