How Chiropractic Can Help During Pregnancy

Many women experience a variety of issues during pregnancy, as the body goes through significant changes that can create different aches and pains.

A common problem is the increased curve in the back, which can lead to back pain, that can be fairly mild or extremely painful.

Increased movement in the joints of the pelvis, due to the ligaments softening, can also lead to pain and discomfort around the pelvic girdle.

As regulated health professionals, chiropractors may focus their practice on specific population groups, such as pregnant women, to help alleviate this pain.

Chiropractors spend a long time in their training & development understanding the biomechanics as it relates to pregnancy.

The techniques used during pregnancy are carefully selected to minimise any risk, are gentle and with the comfort of the mother always paramount. Treatments will always be adapted to suit each individual patient.

If you have had a history of neck and back problems, you may find they return during pregnancy.  A regular maintenance schedule of treatments may offer comfort for the duration of your pregnancy.
