Chiropractic During Pregnancy
Many pregnant women experience backache, neck pain or postural strain, especially in the lumbar region. That’s because there are many changes going on in your body at this time, which can lead to discomfort.
First and most obviously, you gain up to 30-40lbs in weight, which is distributed differently and makes your centre of gravity shift forward. These effects increase demand on the pelvic and spinal muscles and ligaments, which can lead to fatigue and strain.
Chiropractic is a non-invasive, gentle and safe way to help relieve the pain and discomfort of pregnancy, while taking the needs of the mother and foetus into account.
Major benefits of pre-natal chiropractic care include:
- Relieving pressure on the spine by non-invasive means
- Gently stimulating the spinal muscles and joints
- Attempting to re-establish the mobility of the joints and muscles
