Pregnancy Chiropractic at Balance Family Chiropractic
There are many hormonal and physical changes that your body will experience during pregnancy to create the healthiest environment for your baby. These changes, as well as your center of gravity and posture shifting to accommodate your growing baby can lead to a misaligned spine and joints. Back pain during pregnancy is also very common. Chiropractic care may alleviate the stress on your body from these changes as well as pain and stiffness throughout your body.
Regular chiropractic care throughout your pregnancy may also provide for a better and easier birth, for both you and your baby. By gently realigning the pelvis the birthing process is less obstructed for both parties. Studies have also shown that seeing a chiropractor during pregnancy can result in a shorter labor.
Chiropractic care is a non-invasive and non-addictive alternative to traditional pain management. About 27 million Americans are treated by a doctor of chiropractic each year to treat a variety of issues — including symptoms from pregnancy — as well as routine maintenance. Chiropractic care is often used to treat pregnant women and is a combination of spinal manipulation as well as a holistic, whole-body approach to wellness and nutrition.
Spinal manipulation uses the doctor’s hands or a small device to increase joint mobility in a targeted area, which in turn reduces muscle tightness, relieves swelling, or decreases nerve irritation.
