CHIROPRACTIC CARE
FOR PREGNANCY
Although chiropractors are mostly known for working with your "back", chiropractic care actually works closely with your nervous system which consists of your brain, spinal cord and all of the branching nerves that connect to every single part of your body.
​
The Aim of Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy
-
To support optimal balance and function in mother’s body to increase her physical comfort, decrease cortisol (stress) levels, encourage adequate sleep, optimise her immune system function and many more.
-
To encourage optimal growth and development for baby in ways such as reducing tension in the muscles and ligaments of the pelvis, therefore lessening any impact on the position of the womb.
Reasons to See a Chiropractor
Below are some presentations that can be common in pregnancy and may be helped by chiropractic care:​
-
Headaches
-
Joint aches
-
Low back pain
-
Morning sickness
-
Pelvic misalignments
-
And more!
There can be many reasons for these presentations, however there has been significant research on how chiropractic care can have numerous benefits for pregnant women throughout their pregnancy.
Our Chiropractic Techniques
We use non-manual / "non-cracking" techniques.
Our techniques used throughout your pregnancy care are all low-force, gentle and non-invasive. We primarily use Activator, Applied Kinesiology (AK), Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT) and Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET), as well as others as needed. We can also use specific pillows to help support your growing belly so that you can still be receiving care right up to the big day!
​
For more information about these techniques, please feel free to contact us.
