Common Questions

There are numerous potential benefits of prenatal chiropractic care including:
Alleviation of Pregnancy Discomforts: Pregnancy often leads to changes in posture and a shift in your center of gravity which can result in discomfort and pain in the back, neck, hips, and joints. Chiropractic care can help alleviate these discomforts by helping to maintain a healthier posture and balance.
Nausea Control: Chiropractic care can sometimes help reduce symptoms of nausea, also known as morning sickness, which is common during pregnancy.
Easier Labor and Delivery: Regular chiropractic care can help align the pelvis properly, potentially leading to a smoother labor and delivery process. A Webster technique chiropractor, specifically, can help to balance the pelvis, reducing the chances of needing a C-section.
Healthier Pregnancy: By aligning the spine and improving nerve system function, chiropractic care can help your body to function more effectively, which can contribute to an overall healthier pregnancy.
Reduced Labor Time: Some studies suggest that regular chiropractic care during pregnancy can lead to shorter and less painful labor times.
Relief from Sciatica: Pregnancy can put added pressure on the sciatic nerve. Chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate the resulting pain that radiates from the lower back down the legs.
Postpartum Recovery: After delivery, your body goes through further changes as it returns to its non-pregnant state. Postnatal chiropractic care can help this transition, reducing discomfort and aiding recovery.

It is recommended for new babies to be checked by a chiropractor as early as a few days after birth. A pediatric chiropractor can assess your baby for any misalignments in their spine and nervous system that may have occurred during the birthing process and provide gentle adjustments if needed.
Many parents bring in their children as young as newborns to have their nervous systems checked in order to prevent future health issues. Other benefits for babies include feeding help if they have trouble latching, increasing their immunity, improving colic and digestive issues, and reducing crankiness.

You can start seeing a chiropractor at any point during pregnancy, but many women find it helpful to start early on in during the first trimester of pregnancy. As your pregnancy progresses and your body begins to change, regular visits to the chiropractor can help improve overall health and wellness and make room for your developing baby! This can help manage common pregnancy discomforts and prepare the pelvis for the birth process.
