Having been through several pregnancies myself, I can personally attest to the many benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy. I honestly don’t know how women go through pregnancy without chiropractic, and no women should have to. Let me explain how chiropractic helps women during pregnancy:
In addition to the noticeable changes your pregnancy will cause your body, pregnancy can also cause subtle changes in the musculoskeletal system; changes a Chiropractor is able to detect and correct. The position of your growing baby will cause your center of gravity to shift and your spine will naturally alter itself to accommodate this change. As a result, you may experience low back and pelvic pain. Read more...
The increase in hormones during pregnancy can also cause muscles, ligaments, cartilage and even bones to “soften” and become more pliable. Pelvic bones may even become displaced or fixated. Since your hips will need to spread to accommodate the delivery of your baby, fixated pelvic bones can lead to complications during delivery. It’s especially important during pregnancy for nerve impulses to flow from your brain to all the parts of your body. A slightly out-of-place vertebra can create nerve irritation, which can and will interfere with your body’s communication system. By using special or modified techniques during your pregnancy, a Family Wellness Chiropractor can restore the function of your nervous system, improving your overall wellness and increasing your comfort during your pregnancy and delivery. In fact, research has proven that:
- 84% of pregnant women treated by Chiropractic care received profound relief from low back pain
- Women who received Chiropractic care had nearly a 25% reduction in the average labor time verses the “generally accepted average labor time” (With women who had given birth in the past, the number rose to 33%)
- Postpartum pain was relieved in 90 of 120 moms that received regular Chiropractic care
During your pregnancy, a Doctor of Chiropractic can do the following:
- Correct vertebral misalignment and relieve nerve interference with gentle adjustments.
- Help ensure that pelvic bones are properly aligned, contributing to a shorter and easier delivery.
- Re-establish the natural position and mobility of the joints.
- Provide freedom from interference of normal nerve energy.
- Decrease the likelihood of your fetus being in the wrong position during the last trimester
More than just a treatment for low back pain, many mothers have come to recognize the vital role that Chiropractic care plays in a healthy pregnancy, reporting back to their Chiropractors that regular spinal adjustments helped them feel healthier during their pregnancy, decreased morning sickness, facilitated shorter labor and delivery times, and increased an overall sense of well-being.
