How Safe Is Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy?
Your Comfort Is Our Goal
It’s important for moms-to-be to be as comfortable as possible. At Pro Active Chiropractic and Sports Medicine’s office, we have an adjusting table with an abdominal drop piece, to allow you to lie face down if you prefer. We are very happy to adjust you while you’re sitting up if that’s more comfortable for you.
Adjustments can also help with your overall comfort, which can affect your baby’s health. Struggling with a lot of discomfort can lead to elevated blood pressure. Keeping your body properly aligned and functioning optimally helps to reduce that discomfort, keeping blood pressure where it should be, which is healthier for both you and your baby. Regular chiropractic adjustments throughout your pregnancy can also make labor and delivery easier and quicker.
After Delivery
Dr. Roderick has even treated new moms on their way home from the hospital — because gentle chiropractic care after birth can be incredibly beneficial. As your body begins to recover and relaxin levels decrease, your ligaments naturally start to stabilize. Having your pelvis and low back in proper alignment during this time can help support more balanced healing and long-term comfort.
Get Started Today
We recommend you get adjusted about as often as you see your OB-GYN: about once a month until your last trimester, then twice a month for two months, and once a week for your last month. But we are happy to see you when you feel your body needs it; if you are feeling extra sore at any point, you are welcome to come more frequently. Contact us today to schedule your first appointment.
