The Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Care

About ¾ of pregnant women experience pain and discomfort in their third trimester. And as pain-relieving medications whether prescribed or over the counter are advised against during pregnancy, many are seeking alternative options to alleviate these conditions.

One option women aren’t aware of is prenatal chiropracty. By scheduling regular chiropractic treatments during your pregnancy you can reduce many of the negative effects. Some of these are:

  •       Nausea. Morning sickness is one of the hallmarks of early pregnancy. It can be lessened by chiropractic adjustments that realign the spine to restore nervous system function.
  •       Back Pain. As your baby grows and you put on weight, the strain on your entire spine increases, but this is especially noticeable in the lower back. Regular chiropractic adjustments can help.
  •       Difficult Delivery. Your chiropractic professional can prepare your body for the big day by making specific adjustments to rebalance the pelvis, relieve tension in muscles, and reduce the need for pain medication.
  •       Post-Delivery Strain. After you have given birth, regular adjustments by a certified specialist can help realign your body back to its pre-pregnancy position, and even improve how fast the rest of your body recovers.
