Pregnancy Chiropractic Care Services

The human body undergoes several physiological and endocrinological changes during pregnancy that helps to prepare the environment for the growing fetus. Additionally, changes in weight-bearing are involved, which puts additional strain on the spine. Prenatal or pregnancy chiropractic care not only helps you feel more comfortable, but it can also facilitate birth.

The pelvis can become misaligned during pregnancy. When this occurs, the amount of space available for the fetus is drastically reduced. This is known as intrauterine constraint. A smaller space may also make it more difficult for the baby to position itself for delivery. Pelvic balance and alignment can be attained with chiropractic care.

Subluxations

Prenatal chiropractic care is completely safe for both mother and fetus. Pregnancy calls for extra caution when making spinal adjustments. This results from the increased hormone release that occurs during pregnancy, which significantly relaxes muscles and ligaments. Therefore, less force is needed to fix subluxations. Additionally, special adjustable positions can be offered to ensure the safety and comfort of the mother and fetus.

Chiropractors are specialized doctors who are licensed to diagnose and treat subluxations. Currently, 100 chiropractic doctors in the United States and Canada have earned a three-year post-doctoral degree. They are experts in providing maternity and pediatric care. Chiropractic doctors claim that the frequency of care varies for various reasons. A non-complicated pregnancy typically requires regular care weekly to once a month.

 

Effectiveness of Chiropractic Care

Therefore, a pregnant woman must learn about and comprehend the advantages of chiropractic care as she gets used to her new body during her pregnancy. Minor adjustments could positively impact her overall health as a pregnant woman. Additionally, since chiropractic care is a drug-free method of treating pain, it prevents unneeded complications from developing due to taking unneeded medication. Above all, research has shown that chiropractic care is effective. It has been demonstrated that chiropractic care throughout pregnancy will balance the pelvis and the muscles and ligaments attached to it. This results in better deliveries for you and your baby.
