Prenatal
Why it Matters
Pregnancy brings major changes to a woman's body — including shifting posture, loosening ligaments, and increasing pressure on the spine and pelvis. These physical changes often cause back pain, sciatica, pelvic discomfort, and even headaches.
How Chiropractic Helps
Reduces low back and pelvic pain by improving alignment of the pelvis and spine.
Encourages optimal fetal positioning by balancing the pelvis and surrounding muscles/ligaments (especially with the Webster Technique).
Supports nervous system function to reduce discomfort and support overall wellness during pregnancy.
Helps improve labor outcomes by reducing tension and misalignment that could interfere with the birth process.
Statistics
Over 50% of pregnant women report experiencing back pain during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester.
A study published in the Journal of Midwifery & Women’s Health found that 84% of pregnant patients who received chiropractic care reported relief from back pain.
The Webster Technique, often used in prenatal care, has shown positive outcomes in reducing intrauterine constraint and improving fetal position.
