Chiropractic Care for Pregnant Moms
During pregnancy there are multiple changes that occur within the body in preparation for the development of the baby:
When the pelvis is misaligned it may decrease the amount of room available for the developing baby. This restriction is called intrauterine constraint. A misaligned pelvis may also make it difficult for the baby to get into the best possible position for delivery. This can affect the mother’s ability to have a natural, non-invasive birth. Breech and posterior positions can interfere with the natural ease of labor and lead to interventions.
Chiropractic treatment for pregnant mothers is very safe and an effective treatment for the numerous discomforts that can occur during pregnancy. It can also help to decrease labor time and to promote proper position going into labor.
The Doctors have all done additional training in the Webster Technique which is specific to the treatment of pregnant mothers. All Doctors have also done additional training through the ICPA (International Chiropractic Pediatric Association). They believe in proper nutrition through pregnancy and offers nutritional counseling in addition to chiropractic treatment.
