Congratulations! You’re expecting! As you’ve already noticed, your body is going through a lot of changes. It is extremely common to have back and joint aches and pains. Sometimes it will extend into the buttock and leg and those sciatica symptoms are also very common in pregnancy. Chiropractic offers a safe, effective, non-invasive and non-pharmacological way to improve low back symptoms while avoiding any potentially harmful treatments to your growing baby.
The research continues to come out showing the benefits of chiropractic care throughout pregnancy for both managing low back pain but also in helping facilitate a quicker, less painful labor and delivery.
Additionally, improved pelvic alignment can have a positive effect on the birth experience by helping decrease dystocia (difficult labor).
At Align Chiropractic, we are able to accommodate for body changes throughout the pregnancy allowing expecting mothers to be comfortable during treatment. More and more women are discovering the many benefits associated with chiropractic care through pregnancy and appreciate the chiropractor’s understanding and respect for the body’s natural design and function.
